cruisenanny Posted May 13, 2012 #1 Share Posted May 13, 2012 I have done a search but I can't seem to find anything that isn't a few years old. Does anyone have a link to the current Pinnacle menu, as well as room service and the breakfast card. (does HAL have the breakfast cards that you fill out? I can't remember) Thanks for any help:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sail7seas Posted May 13, 2012 #3 Share Posted May 13, 2012 Your steward will leave a door hang menu on your bed each evening when (s)he does turn down service. If you order your breakfast to be delivered during MDR service times, you can write in most things to be delivered for room service. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

g-didi Posted May 13, 2012 #10 Share Posted May 13, 2012 Here is an updated Pinnacle Menu that includes the Intrique.....The Intrique: Land & Sea - master chef Rudi Saloman’s interpretation of Surf & Turf - filet mignon and jumbo prawns on whipped potatoes with garlic, rosemary beurre blanc Lobster Macaroni & Cheese - chef’s favorite: a delicate gratineed combination of mascarpone-enriched pasta and creamy lobster broth with chunks of lobster Roasted vegetable tower -- with onion confit and tomato coulis This might sound stupid, but what is this term "Intrique"? (Guessing something to do with "The Beginning and Finale") Is that just another section of entrees like Grill, Seafood etc? Is the Pinnacle meal basically a 3 course meal with a starter, entree with the option of one (or more?) sides and dessert? Basically choose one from each section?

Is the Pinnacle meal basically a 3 course meal with a starter, entree with the option of one (or more?) sides and dessert? Basically choose one from each section? The Intrique is just another section of the entrees. It really can be more than a three course meal. You can order an many appetizers as you want. You can order as many soups and salads as you want. You can rder as many side dishes as you want. And you can order as many desserts as you want. But you can only order 1 entree. If you want a second entree -- they charge extra for that. We usually order only an appetizer, order soup, share a salad, 1 entree each, a couple of sides each and 1 dessert each. And even that is all too much food for us. For $25 you can't beat the price. Where we live -- most restaurants charge you for each course -- which means a big bill at the end of dinner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
g-didi Posted May 13, 2012 #12 Share Posted May 13, 2012 thank you for the reply.... that does sound like a rather large and delicious meal! I am looking forward to the PG. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sail7seas Posted May 16, 2012 #20 Share Posted May 16, 2012 I wonder if the fact they have been charters makes a difference? I don't know; just wondering. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What kind of eggs benedict did you write in, as there are 7 different kinds! ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruisenanny Posted May 16, 2012 Author #23 Share Posted May 16, 2012 So if I you want to have the MDR lunch or dinner served in your cabin during the MDR hours, do you ask your steward ahead of time for the menus or are they posted on the television now? A few years back I was very ill on a HAL cruise & our wonderful steward brought me the MDR menus every day.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boytjie Posted May 16, 2012 #24 Share Posted May 16, 2012 I wonder if the fact they have been charters makes a difference? I don't know; just wondering. I doubt that a charter would make a difference. What kind of eggs benedict did you write in, as there are 7 different kinds! ;) There is only one Eggs Benedict, the other variations have different names. ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
