OMG... they look so GOOD. I know there are some that believe they are doing all of this to drive folks into Specialty restaurants, but I can assure you they are losing business in the Specialty restaurants with us. There were many multiple choices on each menu we want to try.

There seem to be a lot of my DW's favorites here. I'm not crazy about much of it but, as long as I can get a steak or a decent pasta, I'm fine too. I worry more about the "always avaiable" menu.

Thanks for posting the menus.

Looks almost the same to me . We'll still eat in the surcharge restaurants 2 to 3 times during the cruise.

Talking Looks good!

This looks pretty darn good! I especially like the fact that there is one sugar-free dessert on each day! I know that I found something on each menu that I'd order so there's no need for me to go to the pay restaurants unless I specifically wanted sushi or something like that!

Thanks for posting these...I leave on the Dawn in less than 400 days!!

According to Hugo the menu is the same for both main dining rooms.

And I really like what I see. He is not sure how they are going to handle our 2 week cruise. But, personally I think this would work just fine.

Default Help.......having problems reading the menus....

Not sure what to do. When I click on the link, a very tiny menu comes up. If I try to enlarge it, to see it, its just unreadable....Is there a trick? thanks

Menu has improved since we were on in June when they first started testing. I'm glad to see they now have several choices each day for the specials. Are the menus the same in both DR's now? We met Mr. Kati, Restaurants Mgr. on our cruise. He is a wonderful person and was very helpful to us. If he or someone on the Dawn is reading this, we send our best regards.

I feel like I'm beating a dead horse, but didn't see any mention of the cold fruit soups on those menus. If they've eliminated those at dinner time again, I'm not going to be a happy cruiser.

I DID ask about cold soups....they (one each day) are available on the buffet. only (and they are located in the fruit section!!). I tried some and IMHO..they are NOT as good as they were...

I'm not a computer person and was also having the same problem. This is what I did: I double clicked on the first menu and it enlarged. On the left side it will show the menus in small print. There is an arrow on the left, pointing toward the left and on the right, an arrow pointing to the right.

When you are doing finishing reading the first menu that you double clicked on at the beginning, double click the menu that is next to the arrow pointing right and it will show the next day's menu. Continue doing that until you have seen all of the menus.

I don't know all these technical words so my simple words. Hope this helped. I've an Apple and also use Firefox.

Wow, I'd have to eat at the buffet most nights. I have a fish/shellfish allergy, and I'm not an adventurous eater.
