The menus you are seeing are the actual menu for that day on the ship, not a sample. The problem with trying to see the actual menu on any given day on your cruise, is the itinerary the same? If its the same as your cruise, the menu will likely be the same. In other words, if your ship is sailing the same 7 day itinerary week after week, you can expect today's menu to be the same as menu 2 or 3 or 4 weeks from today. Otherwise, generally, you can't see what nights are prime rib, for example.
