fourkittys Posted December 16, 2012 #1 Share Posted December 16, 2012 I assume all Holland ships have the same if not similar menus. Would someone please post or tell me where to find the most recent dining room menus. We will be on the Niew Amsterdam if that matters. Thank you in advance!! :D:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sail7seas Posted December 16, 2012 #5 Share Posted December 16, 2012 Even if someone posted it, they change so fast these days they'd be old in no time. From our June Oosterdam cruise to November on Westerdam, the menus were very different. Week one of our Collectors, the menus were different than our week two. If you have not cruised recently, you many not know that entrees are so reduced they now have things such as cobb salad as a dinner entree. I happen to like cobb salad but don't consider that fine dining or expect it on a cruise ship dinner menu. To me, that's a nice lunch with the ladies. :rolleyes: Each night they have a dinner salad. I'm the queen of salads but really....... Cobb salad for dinner on a cruise ship? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they are doing that, at least they could give us a Carnival dessert of two! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posting menus these days is not terribly useful IMO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Typhoon1 Posted December 17, 2012 #14 Share Posted December 17, 2012 Normally, it's on the menu on the last formal night. I've seen it on the first formal night. Followed of course, by some type of lobster, whether it be lobster tail or surf and turf. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sail7seas Posted December 17, 2012 #18 Share Posted December 17, 2012 Thanks, Cindy. Good of you to find the menus and post them. We did not see many of those dishes on our recent Collector's Cruise on Westerdam. Many are changed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HAL does that every season and every year. Sorry for the confusion...the menus I posted are the current ones from our Noordam cruise Nov. 26-Dec. 7 this year. Krazy Kruizers, I was able to use the ones you posted a year ago and just make the changes where needed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sail7seas Posted December 17, 2012 #22 Share Posted December 17, 2012 HAL seems to be serving different menus on 10-11 day cruises than on 7 day cruises. Interesting seeing that over 400 of us on Westerdam had booked 14 days yet had a different choice of offerings. Both weeks of our Collectors, there were hundreds of others doing two weeks..... not just a handful but our menus were considerably different. We were booked to sail Noordam in March but we just cancelled. Circumstances made us unable to go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nana51 Posted December 18, 2012 #23 Share Posted December 18, 2012 Not the answer to your question, but here are some great pics of HAL food: I don't think looking at this 30 minutes before dinner was a good idea.

My frozen taquitos don't seem quite as appealing now. while I am an exceptional chef - at home, my dishes do not match the 'photogenic' meals every one posts. -- However, depending on the cruise line my food is probably better -- excepting HAL -- they always deliver better sides than I can ever manage to come up with. I also don't give choices for appetizers, salads, or soups -- hee hee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
