Greengirl Posted March 10, 2005 #1 Share Posted March 10, 2005 I keep hearing about these buffets for chocolate addicts and was wondering if Carnival has them? Specifically, the Pride? We don't remember there being one on the Ecstasy last summer, but that was a four day cruise. There was the Gala Buffet and it was beautiful. Amazing what they can do with food, huh?! My kids are driving me crazy about this and are dying to know - can you help me? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SandieB Posted March 10, 2005 #2 Share Posted March 10, 2005 Just off the Valor last weekend and there was a chocolate buffet the last day starting at noon. Coming from a chocoholic it was wonderful :D get there right at noon though or you will have to wait in quite a line. I'm sure your children will love having all the chocolate they can stand right after breakfast:eek: the truffles were amazing. Feel free to ask me specifics Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grandeur Posted March 10, 2005 #3 Share Posted March 10, 2005 Are there midnight buffets each night on Fascination? Anybody know? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greengirl Posted March 10, 2005 Author #4 Share Posted March 10, 2005 Does anyone know about the Pride specifically? If I don't have an answer for the kids when I get home, I will never hear the end of it!! LOL Every time they ask me a question I don't know the answer to, they say "Ask your CC friends, mom - they'll know"!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Greengirl Posted March 11, 2005 Author #7 Share Posted March 11, 2005 Wow...my 9yo would have convulsions if he had that opportunity!! LOL!! Maybe we'll have to do something on the Glory in 2006 :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rarodg2 Posted March 11, 2005 #8 Share Posted March 11, 2005 The Pride doesn't have a chocolate buffet. Only the Glory and the Conquest (according to Carnival's website) We are going on Triumph, which doesn't have a chocolate buffet either. I was really looking forward to it as well, when I found it I was so disappointed, but not enought to change the cruise. Oh well, just another reason to take another cruise.

wwakla Posted March 11, 2005 #11 Share Posted March 11, 2005 When they had the gala (?) buffet on the Pride the last table was every inch chocolate. And was it scrumptious :D This is the buffet where they make food into anything imagineable. Also they have a make your own sundae time. And it is make your own. I don't remember even having room for ice cream..... Enjoy. The Pride is a beautiful ship. You will have a blast. Hope you are doing Randi's Happy Horses with the kids in Mazatlan.

F5Loar Posted March 12, 2005 #12 Share Posted March 12, 2005 NCL and HAL have them on every ship that is a week or longer. I've been on a lot of Carnivals and never seen one. The Gala is full of chocolate stuff but it's not called that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluehorizonlover123 Posted March 12, 2005 #13 Share Posted March 12, 2005 The best chocolate buffet I ever saw was on NCL. Most of the ships are doing away with formal midnight buffets. Usually you will only find one really good one with ice sculptures etc on a week long cruise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lilsonicfan Posted March 12, 2005 #14 Share Posted March 12, 2005 I think it is only ships in the Conquest class... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JiminyCricket Posted March 12, 2005 #17 Share Posted March 12, 2005 Just realized that there is a chocolate buffet on the Conquest. What are the days and times of the buffet. I assume it was great. Now just have to wait 9+ months.:eek: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

travelgoddes Posted March 13, 2005 #20 Share Posted March 13, 2005 Chocolate is my biggest vice in life..... We are cruising on the Glory 9-10, it will be at the top of my list. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlwaysReady2Go Posted March 13, 2005 #21 Share Posted March 13, 2005 Just off the Miracle and they had the Chocolate Fountain - they had rum balls, donuts, pineapple, banana, cantelope and honeydew on skewers and they were dipped into this fountain of chocolate. Is this what everyone is talking about? If so, it was the last day of the cruise - it ran from 12:00 - 2:30 ONLY and if you weren't in that area at that time you would never know it was going on. There was a long line (about 10 minutes) and worth every minute of the wait! Loved the rum balls! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mcgovernsandra Posted March 15, 2005 #25 Share Posted March 15, 2005 The chocolate buffet is set up on Saturday afternoon along with the lunch buffet at Rosie's on the Lido deck. Lots of goodies - chocolate cheesecake, chocolate pear cake, chocolate orange cake, chcoloate gateau, waterfall, creme chocolate pudding, rice pudding (no chocolate at all in it - not sure why it was on the buffet - and it happened to be the worse rice pudding I've had in my life!), creme puff swans with hot fudge, fruit with chocolate and caramel sauces, truffles that were to die for!, fudge, candies, etc. everything really great (except the rice pudding of course!) :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
