Mysticks1 Posted February 21, 2008 #1 Share Posted February 21, 2008 Since the search function keeps locking up can someone tell me if there is a lunch menu offered in the main dining room? If so, what types of items are offered? Thanks in advance for your replies. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PSCruiser Posted February 21, 2008 #2 Share Posted February 21, 2008 On most cruises lunch in the dining room is restricted to sea days, I'm assuming this is because not enough people use it on port days. Even on sea days, my estimate would be that less than 20% of people use it. For lunch (and also breakfast) you are not seated at your regular dinner table, unless you request otherwise you will be seated so as to fill up large tables - good for meeting new people! On most of our cruises most of the menu has been fixed for the entire cruise, 3 courses with 4-5 choices for each course. In addition there are 1 or 2 daily specials for each course. All in all, lunch in the dining room is usually pretty good! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mysticks1 Posted February 21, 2008 Author #3 Share Posted February 21, 2008 Thanks for your reply. I forgot to mention breakfast. On Carnival we ate in the dining room more than once for breakfast and lunch. It was a nice break from the buffet. I look forward to trying it.

Tra4 Posted February 21, 2008 #4 Share Posted February 21, 2008 I love lunch in the dining room and breakfast as well, you get to meet others that you dont normally sit with and food seems to be better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RoofingPrincess Posted February 21, 2008 #5 Share Posted February 21, 2008 There was some kind of Indonesian dish on the lunch menu in the dining room - like fried rice, with a fried egg on top, with chicken skewers. The name was something like "Nasi Goreng". It was SCRUMPTIOUS! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nstr Posted February 21, 2008 #7 Share Posted February 21, 2008 I have yet to try a dining room for breakfast or lunch on a cruise. Looking forward to it ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The name was something like "Nasi Goreng". It was SCRUMPTIOUS! That does sound good! The thing I love about a cruise is that I get to be more adventurous in my eating. I order things that I would never try at a normal restaurant just because I am afraid of paying for something that I won't like. On a cruise I can always get something else. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare silentbob007 Posted February 21, 2008 #9 Share Posted February 21, 2008 Breakfast can be had in the dining room every day (including debarkation day), while lunch is usually limited to sea days. The lunch menu is constant (which you really only notice on longer cruises) with a few specials. There is also a pasta station where you can order pasta, sauce, and toppings and having it made right in front of you (or let the waiter order/retrieve it for you).
