Glittercat Posted June 22, 2006 #1 Share Posted June 22, 2006 Do you eat dessert every night on board a ship? Just occasionaly? Not at all? What was your least favorite? What was your favorite? Are portions generally small and decadent, or large and forgettable? Can you request fruit for dessert? Do you order dessert at the same time as the rest of your food, or after your entree has been eaten? LOL! Sorry for the goofy questions, I had not considered dessert when wondering about food quality and such on a cruise. *blush* The "cheesecake" tthread started it. ;) ~Rebecca Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

barbarah33 Posted June 23, 2006 #3 Share Posted June 23, 2006 I don’t have dessert every night on a cruise but about half of them. (I never have dessert at home.) I always partake in any flavor soufflé they are offering - let's face it you can't get a soufflé at most restaurants. Other than that I will pretty much skip it unless there is something totally new and different to try. Oh, and on baked Alaska night I will have one bite with strawberry ice cream and meringue - I love the taste of toasted meringue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cotton Posted June 24, 2006 #4 Share Posted June 24, 2006 Rebecca, not knowing which line you're interested in..... Carnival, for instance, has fairly good desserts and they are ordered after your meal. I sometimes choose one of the French pastries or Flan, but I often skip dessert and have a cappuccino instead. If I order a dessert, I have an espresso. (Both are complimentary at all meals in the dining room on Carnival ships - Unfortunately, there is a charge on RCI.) Fruit is always available.

Glittercat Posted June 24, 2006 Author #5 Share Posted June 24, 2006 Well your answers are appreciated. :) As I am still really new here, I found the boards AFTER I had booked our cruise. lol. As there have been many not so favorable reviews of our ship (NCL's Pride of Aloha), I am keeping myself upbeat by thinking of the experiences unique to being on a cruise. Such as dressing up, menu choices, etc. So, dessert is fun (if somewhat goofy ;) ) to think about. We don't eat them often, but when we do we prefer small portions and interesting ingredients. :) Have a great day! ~Rebecca Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
