Favorite can't-miss food/drink on each cruise line?

I see threads about favorite foods on a specific line, but what about listing your faves on each cruiseline, for example, mine are:

Carnival: the pizza (thin-crust!) and the hot chocolate machines. (The Warm Chocolate Melting cake goes without saying!)

RCCL: Oasis-class - the roast beef sandwich at the Central Park Café.

Any more?

Anyone?.

For me it's the chocolate chip cookies from the windjammer on Royal Caribbean.

I can't stop eating them once I start:eek:

I love it but limit myself to a child-size serving maybe twice on a 10 day cruise. Their fresh made guacamole is delicious, too.

Royal Caribbean has the best salad croutons - crisp without being hard. Since I eat a lot of salads, I really enjoy those croutons.

The pizza on Princess.

I did not like the fettucine at all. I got a gummy mess with powdery split sauce and a parmesan basket that was hard like plastic.

The roast beef sandwich/kummelweck(?) was pretty darn good on Oasis. I also liked their salad in the same cafe. Not worth it to wait in line for the tutti salad in the MDR; the items are basically the same just more different kinds of the same. Like three types of tomatoes, different cheeses, but you could get the same upstairs.

Steak sandwich from room service on Oasis.

Congee on Princess. They change it each day but the ginger one was so good. Congee on Celebrity was terrible. Always on the verge of room temp. Yuck.

Well for me who cruises on Carnival, the food right now is in a state of transition, especially in the dining room and room service. But I must say that I do love the smoked salmon and bagel from the deli. But since you mentioned drink:D I do love the "twilight zone".

I had two of those fairly close together last November, and literally found myself IN the "twilight" zone:D

Love the bangers in the Princess buffet. Not usually a buffet person, but I couldn't stay away from it!

I also love the butter chicken from the Tandoor restaurant on some Carnival ships.

I fell in love with the cucumber sunrise drink from the Alchemy bar on my last Carnival cruise. So delicious! I am also a big fan of bitter n blanc.

holland america : bread pudding and the breakfasts in the dining room

( especially eggs benedict but make with salmon ! ) also dive-in rare burgers

carnival : some ships have the separate upstairs with the seafood at lunch !

princess : delicious pizza at alfredo's .. and the great picky foods at the international cafe

yum

Royal- shrimp ravioli in the dining room, frozen mojitos, at the bar, and coconut ranger cookies in the windjammer

HAL's Pinnacle Grill used to have a Steak Diane that was absolutely to die for, IMO, but it's no longer on the menu, sigh. They also had an absolutely fantastic Thai chicken soup.....had it for appetizer one night and when they asked me what I wanted for dessert, I said "another cup of that wonderful soup!" It was fantastic. No longer on the menu, or else it's just a different recipe. Then they had steak, chicken or seafood skewers, flamed tableside, that were wonderful, no longer on the menu, sigh.

We've only been on one RCI cruise, but loved the frozen yogurt machine out by the pool, LOL! Their seafood platter night (with lobster) in the MDR was pretty fantastic.

We've also only been on one NCL cruise, but their dessert crepes in the buffet at night were delicious! Mmmmmm, fresh-made crepe with cherry pie filling, drizzled with chocolate and a plop of fresh whipped cream? Yes, please, YUM!

Best wishes!

My favorite would probably have to be the "Chocolate Sensation" (espresso sponge, chocolate truffle mousse, almond icing and chocolate glaze) on RCCL. I must've ordered it every night.

Carnival Cruise lines has warm chocolate melting cake in the dining rooms for dessert, and it's amazing! Anybody else ever try that?

Yes, DaleJr, it's famous!!

True. I figured it's pretty popular when I posted a pic of it on instagram, hash tagged it and tons of similar photos came up. Plus, it's just SO good!

And now, christinalvt, I see you mention it in the post you started the thread with. haha

Yeah I love it!

Well, the chocolate Volcano desserts on Norwegian CL aren't so bad either! Last time I posted on this thread I'd never tried one, now I've had close to a dozen! :)

Our best Dining experience has to be 'Crab Shack' the amount served overfaced us we could not eat it all

Would recommend 'Crab Shack' to any Sea Food lover

I'm gonna throw a curveball.... The pizza on MSC Divina was amazing.

But, I love food....

Our blog is dedicated to travel and food, my favorite things. I just found this part of cruisecritic today... I am kind of wishing I hadn't as it's too early for lunch :(

My favourite food on RCCI is the Creme brulee in the Dinning room. I was also pretty impressed with the Room Service Tortilla dip, which I only ordered as someone on here had recommended it.

CCL - Bitter and Blanc! But I also loved the Bitter and Blanc, and probably my number one favorite- the Bitter and Blanc...:D

Carnival: Chocolate Melting Cake... 2nd to NONE!!!👍

Pina Colada!!! Carnival mixes them to perfection!

Some standouts in my mind:

Princess: Goat cheese souffle appetizer (main dining room) was awesome. The chef's table is also totally worth the ~$90 if you can get in on it. The fish and chips they serve 1-2 times per cruise for lunch at the wheelhouse bar are also great.

Holland America: Caesar salad from Pinnacle Grill was very good. The $10 lunch there is also a good value too. The Rijsttafel (main dining room) is also fun to try. I also like that they have hot breakfast room service for all cabins (Princess doesn't do that).

Crystal: Black cod at Silk Road (aka Nobu) - best fish I've ever had. Incidentally, their Italian restaurant served up some of the smallest and driest lamb chops I've ever had.

NCL and RCCL: Mediocre food, IMHO.
