skiiergirl Posted September 15, 2014 #1 Share Posted September 15, 2014 (edited) Ok all, let's play nice here....No need to criticize another poster...just list YOUR likes/dislikes. We all have different tastes..some national and some regional! I think we can all agree that there are some things RC does really well and some things that need definite improvement!!!! (And we may have totally opposing viewpoints on any particular item.) I'm sure there are things that I think are nasty...but if I have never tried it I shouldn't criticize based on names or looks! No need to talk nutrition either as again we are all different. All of our bodies process food differently. What might be good for one person might not have the same affect/effect on another person's body/weight. What would you like to see changed or added to the RC menu and/or buffet offerings? I'll start.... 1. I agree that the biscuits and gravy offered in the WJ on most ships is nasty! (looks and taste) I agree with OP in another thread...if they are going to serve it they should train the staff to prepare it properly!!! I would love to see them serve authentic southern biscuits and gravy not only in the WJ but also have it as a menu item in the MDR and specialty restaurants for those that qualify for the specialty restaurant breakfast. 2. Would love to have them bring back: a. Vidalia Onion Tart in MDR b. Green Beans in Chops c. Lyonnaise potatoes in Chops d. Assorted breads in MDR (cornbread, banana bread, etc) 3. Would love to have them offer fresh, hot, variety of bagels (blueberry, strawberry, cinnamon, sun-dried tomato, etc). 4. Breakfast burritos or offer warm tortillas to make your own breakfast burrito 5. Get rid of the Mojo, Shiitake, and Arugula menus! These need to be removed and completely replaced. I'm sure there is more I am just not thinking of at the moment. These are the items at the top of my "RC food revamp wish list". What about you? (Again....YOUR likes/dislikes....no need to criticize other people's likes/dislikes.) Edited September 15, 2014 by skiiergirl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ryano Posted September 15, 2014 #2 Share Posted September 15, 2014 (edited) I would like to see a better quality cut of steak on the MDR menu that you dont have to pay extra for and the ability to get a Prime steak in Chops for the 35.00. NOT 35.00 + the upcharge fee for a steak. If Carnival can serve a USDA Prime steak in their steakhouses for 35.00 then most certainly RCI should be able to as well.

dacsmom Posted September 15, 2014 #3 Share Posted September 15, 2014 I would love if they brought back the Vidalia onion tart, it was probably my favorite dish on any menu. I agree with Mojo, that is my least favorite and I book a specialty restaurant that night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ryano Posted September 15, 2014 #5 Share Posted September 15, 2014 Better desserts. Agreed. I like the key lime pie but thats about it. I wish they would offer a REAL cheesecake in the MDR. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NemoCrownie Posted September 15, 2014 #6 Share Posted September 15, 2014 Better desserts. YES Bob, I agree !!! I miss the Scallops Risotto and real donuts, especially at the early morning coffee bar on the ships without the promenade café. I also am not a fan of duck, lamb, and fish so the new menus are very limiting for me but I won't starve. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare NorbertsNiece Posted September 15, 2014 #8 Share Posted September 15, 2014 So far the best Gluten Free bread and offerings in general has been on Freedom. Adventure, Legend, Navigator, have a long long way to go. Oasis coming up this week...... should be interesting.... watch this space. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jndsilver31 Posted September 15, 2014 #10 Share Posted September 15, 2014 Better desserts. I certainly agree with you about desserts. RCI needs new dessert chefs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fat Paul Posted September 15, 2014 #11 Share Posted September 15, 2014 I would agree with bringing back the vadilia onion tart. Being from New Mexico I view a breakfast burrito as a sacrament and for the love of all things holy, how hard can it be to make a decent pizza?
