canuckcruiselover Posted February 8, 2015 #1 Share Posted February 8, 2015 Has anyone had the beef sliders in the MDR? Are they good? There's not much else on the Saffron menu that appeals to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare DragonOfTheSeas Posted February 8, 2015 #2 Share Posted February 8, 2015 My DH felt the same way about this menu. He felt they were very good. --soft rolls and small hamburger patties and they came with fries. DH was glad not to have mashed potatoes again. If I remember correctly there were only 2 sliders. The waiter tried to discourage him from getting them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spookwife Posted February 8, 2015 #3 Share Posted February 8, 2015 we always do a specialty, or room service on Saffron day. IMNSHO the sliders are not all that. I get better at any local chain restaurant at home. you could always get double or triple appetizers/soup/salad and skip the entree. I have done that a few times. I could drink a gallon of the French onion soup or any of the cold fruit ones... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare LMaxwell Posted February 8, 2015 #4 Share Posted February 8, 2015 I like them. Nice bread. Some sort of tangy mayo based spread. Comes with plain steak fries. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tm3750 Posted February 8, 2015 #5 Share Posted February 8, 2015 Has anyone had the beef sliders in the MDR? Are they good? There's not much else on the Saffron menu that appeals to me. Saffron is my least favorite also, Last time I got an entree and also ordered the sliders, I thought they were very good, If I remember correctly you got two and they had carmelized onions on them with fries.

Rare Lionesss Posted February 8, 2015 #6 Share Posted February 8, 2015 One of the times we cruised the Allure and arrived late back from port we did room service and I ordered the sliders. They came very hot with fries. I would order them again. Safe journey Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trev71 Posted February 8, 2015 #7 Share Posted February 8, 2015 Sliders were very good. Sometimes ill ask for the sliders minus the fries for a appetizer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Margy23 Posted February 9, 2015 #8 Share Posted February 9, 2015 (edited) On our last cruise we had forgotten there's not much we enjoy on the Saffron menu. My husband ordered the sliders - he thinks there were three but isn't sure - he is sure he enjoyed them. In the past I have ordered an appetizer, soup, and a salad, which easily satisfies me, to avoid the saffron entrees, but on our last cruise someone had told me adults can order from the children's menu. I had the chicken tenders with honey/mustard sauce and enjoyed them immensely. We cruise on Vision on 2/28, and my plan is to do that again.

CTNYER Posted February 9, 2015 #9 Share Posted February 9, 2015 There are two. I had them last night. They are okay - not fantastic but not bad. Come with plain steak fries. We often got them to split as an addition to our main meal. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
franl24fan Posted February 9, 2015 #10 Share Posted February 9, 2015 I found the sliders to be OK, a little spicy for me. But one of my favorite items are the steak fries that come with the sliders. I order them with many other items and always find them to be crisp and tasty. As someone mentioned, as an adult I sometimes order the mac & cheese from the kids menu. And if all else fails and I've gone to the dining room to sit with friends and don't like any entrees, I order a salad, a soup, the steak fries, and dessert. Not healthy but once a cruise is OK :-). I'm always surprised when cruisers say they didn't know they could go totally off the standard meals on the menu. If you have a great waiter they will customize your meals.

Tamaracklady Posted February 9, 2015 #11 Share Posted February 9, 2015 Another vote for the chicken strips off the kids menu, but paired with the steak frites. They come with 5 if I recall and they are real chicken, nice and crispy batter 😊 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
canuckcruiselover Posted February 9, 2015 Author #12 Share Posted February 9, 2015 12 cruises and I never thought to order off the kids menu! Great idea! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colorado Babe Posted February 9, 2015 #13 Share Posted February 9, 2015 You can get the sliders with cheese. They are awesome. We order then when the menu options aren't good! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CntPAcruiser Posted February 9, 2015 #14 Share Posted February 9, 2015 If you are getting the fries, with or without the sliders, order extra of the aioli that comes on the side--it's fantastic! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
