memoak Posted August 7 #10 Share Posted August 7 I like the Mortadella and Cheese sandwich’s. I know this is about treats but they are tasting as a snack 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

beshears Posted August 7 #12 Share Posted August 7 I have not read any of the replies here, but just as a suggestion, we were on the Regal in February, and really like different foods at the International Cafe. My only suggestion, and you may or may not want to do this, but for the most part, when I got a sandwich, sometimes they were pretty cold (almost too cold for me), so I ask them to microwave it a little, and they turned out perfect for me. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HotRoot Posted August 7 #13 Share Posted August 7 Five Princess cruises in the last year. We have never eaten at the IC. The line has always been way too long for us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Previously, many Grand class ships had a panini press to warm/toast the sandwiches if desired. I believe now, they and Royal class ships have a special ‘oven’ they use to warm them now, not microwaved. Usually have been asked if I want my items warm/toasted or cold. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was just about to ask if there was anything gluten free in the IC that was good. The MDR is great apparently. We will be on the Majestic. Sometimes the line up is different for different ships. 🤞 What is the GF bread like on board, generally? Is it white cardboard?

wallyj Posted August 7 #18 Share Posted August 7 @paddingtonbear, I believe you can request GF pizza at Alfredo’s and the lido deck ‘included’ pizza 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MsSoCalCruiser Posted August 7 #19 Share Posted August 7 This all sounds amazing to me but I am allergic to dairy so I guess I will never know. I do know that my friend likes a dessert at the international Café that has fruit on top of it. I think it is called a mini Pavlova but I’m not sure.

I'd ask as there are so many people with intolerances these days. The MDR has dairy free desserts too. Edited August 7 by paddingtonbear Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The MDR always makes me special dairy free desserts but the international café always tells me that there is nothing there for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Silly people. I'd ask them to ask the chef. Edited August 7 by paddingtonbear 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes the quick oven melts the cheese and crisp the bread. Much better than microwave. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
