[akaCruiser]

Thank you for posting the menus for Eurodam, as I have been looking at the boards for a long time and was hoping someone would be posting them before I depart on Dec 13.

[Krazy Kruizers]

You are welcome.

I tried to get them on as quickly as possible knowing that there are lot of CC'ers leaving soon on the Eurodam.

[mafig]

Thank you for these menus. Can't wait for DH to get home so I can show them to him.

By any chance do you have a listing of the "Martinis of the Day" (assuming they still have those;)).

[goody1]

Thank you so much for taking the time to post these comprehensive menus. My wife and I are cruising on the Eurodam in August which will be our first cruise with HAL and this gives a great insight into HAL menus.

[darcy24]

Do you think the menus for Zuiderdam Alaska next year will be the same/similar? Would think that perhaps less Caribbean themed and more North West. Any thoughts?

[red knight]

KK You are nasty posting these menus! My cruise on the Eurodam is not until late March, and I am now already too hungry to wait!:D

[tomtal]

Thanks for the menus. One little rotund person will be a little/lot more rotund by the end of next week!

[twinkletoes4445]

Thanks for posting the new menu! :)

[auntdana]

thanks for psoting the menus

The Alaskan menus are slightly different offering more seafood and less Caribbean style food. I posted the ones from our Alaskan Westerdam cruise last May.

[Krazy Kruizers]

That's is correct -- there is very little difference in the menus for a particular area.

[Krazy Kruizers]

Sorry -- I don't have the list for the Maartini of the Day. The Daily Program only listed the Drink of the Day.

But I do remember seeing inside the Bar Menu on the tables the Martini of the Day listed there.

[lorekauf]

I don't think they have had martini of the day for a long time now.

KK, your desserts sounded much better then ours. There were maybe 5 days out of the 26 that had decent desserts on my Statendam cruise. Very dissapointing.

[Krazy Kruizers]

The martini of the day is still around -- just not advertized in the Daily Program.

[From Naples]

Thanks for the info....we leave on the 13th...can't wait!

[Roz]

OMG! :eek: Bami Goreng is back on the menu. I've died and gone to heaven. Next HAL cruise isn't until November of next year. Hope it's still offered.

Roz

[Alebd]

We've just returned from two weeks on the Volendam in Australia- NZ- The menus were very similar, almost identical, to these. A few different "fresh, regional flavor" items here and there.

[the_dylaness]

Sounds pretty good! Thanks so much for posting these. :D

I've decided to switch our Tamarind reservation to the fourth night since there's not too much on the menu then we're interested in.

Could you comment on dishes you particularly enjoyed or weren't bowled over by?

This is just a general comment, but I noticed that most of the vegetarian entrees are decidedly lacking in a good protein source...

[SF Cfan]

Thank you very much for posting the Eurodam menus.

I can't wait - except I guess I'll have to, another 213 days to be specific.

[brucory]

Our menu was very similar to those posted, on the Ryndam Sea of Cortez a few weeks back.

The only bad experience was the scallops dish on the first day. Would be intrigued to know KK if you saw or sampled this dish and if it was any good on the Eurodam.

Our feeling was that if they can't do a dish properly, then they should do something else. Everything else on the cruise was excellent.

:D:D:D

We are also going late March---the 28th-----When are you going? If it's the 28th it would be great if you joined the roll call. At this point there are only two posters.

[vegasgirl00]

Hey, I am going on the Eurodam on March 28th as well! Since I am a total newbie, I will attempt to find the roll call to see if we can meet up.

I just got back from a Mexican Riviera jaunt on the Oosterdam and the menu was exactly the same. I won't complain because the food was amazing. :)

Posted in wrong thread.

[Krazy Kruizers]

Everyone -- remember that this was last year's menu -- many items will still be the same.

[cruisun]

It looks like almost the exact menu's from the Noordam in January 09. I was on two ten day b2b so there were some additional items and many repeated but I thought the food was excellent. I am jealous however that you were offered the cappucino bombe. It was not offered in January on the Noordam and it is one of my favorites:D

[Typhoon1]

And many will be different.

[baggal]

Its Friday night, I'm too tired to cook and it looks like its going to be leftovers.

Wishing I could call room service...

[Huey]

It's kinda funny that ****ake mushrooms were censored!!

The chocolate bombe was not offered on our 20 Noordam cruise in February either.

I know -- I laughed when I first saw that.

[LOGHL]

Thank you sooo much for posting those menus... We have a bit of a problem, husband is just over open heart surgery, & has to be VERY careful about spices...Can we order any of the menum items (which I assume are preprepared) without all the spices?? thanks for your help.

[Krazy Kruizers]

I have developed major stomach problems and since the sauces are where the majority of the spices are -- I always ask to have the sauces left off.

Some meats do have spices -- just ask your waiter.

They were very accommondating to me on my last cruise.

[Springerlady]

I will be sailing on the Eurodam Nov. 7,2009. Has anyone sailed recently, and is the menu the same? I'm trying to figure out which night to book Pinnacle Grill and Tamarind.:p

[Gater Girl]

Thank you so much for posting those menus. We sail on the Westerdam in January, and I assume the menus will be the same. It looked like a very nice mix of 'ordinary food' (me) and Haut Crusine (spelled correctly, I hope) ( my DH). I am an ice cream fanatic but seldom eat it other than on vacation. Those Sundaes looked ....like something to look forward too!!!!!!

Thank you again. I know it was a lot of trouble for you ...but you are getting many sincere, happy thanks..winging back to you!!!:):):):):)

[Krazy Kruizers]

Please keep in mind that someone brought up this very old thread.

The menus posted may not be the same as HAL does update their menus about every 6 months.

Some item will be the same -- others will change.
