lobster tails on Carnival

[pma29223]

I heard that Carnival us not doing the lobster tails on the

shorter cruises. What did they replace the lobster tails with?

What kind of seafood do they serve on the shorter cruises?

If you go to zydecocruiser.net, and indicate which ship you'll be on, you can look at the menu that will be offered for that cruise. ;)

Thanks for your response.

Just off the elation 5 day and no lobster. It is replaced with 4 grilled shrimp that used to come with the lobster. You could upgrade for $20 surcharge and get one lobster tail. I wish they would of limited the lobster to one per person instead of just doing away with it

Cruises shorter than 7 nights no longer offer lobster as a MDR entree for no charge. An option is to pay a $20 premium get a larger, tasty crustacean.

No lobster on Fantasy 5 night, 2 weeks ago. Very disappointing considering it was a New Years Eve Week cruise and the price was very high, figured there'd be lobster on NYE which was the only formal night. They got to suck $20 out of me when I sprung for the surf and turf lol. Anyways there wasn't something jumping off the page in place of the lobster, lots of seafood though. Scallops and shrimp almost every night.

We just did the 7 day Southern Carib on Liberty and lobster was offered the first formal night at no charge, but on the 2nd formal night, you had to pay $20 surcharge if you wanted it.

Googled it, looks like you are right. It is 5 nights or less.

Sailed the Inspiration last December. We really enjoyed the scallop appetizer. Two of those would make a nice entree. The ravioli in vodka sauce was also good.

I guess everyone's tastes are different. I hated the ravioli in vodka sauce (too much pasta not enough crab meat) and didn't enjoy any of the replacements.

 

Carnival bring back the lobster on shorter cruises!!!

We had lobster on our 6 day cruise two weeks ago.

While I understand you wanting it, I would not hold my breath in them bringing it back to short cruises.

To answer the question of what replaces the lobster on cruises 5 nights or less:

 

• broiled sea scallops with truffled risotto and citrus gremolata
  
• blue crab ravioli in a light lobster cream with vodka
  
• oven baked Japanese sea bass with nicoise sauce and aromatic basmati rice
  
• grilled jumbo shrimp with special marinara sauce and mustard potatoes
  
• roasted duck with orange glaze and au gratin potatoes.

She's a girl, and I have bought her a "real" lobster tail but she's looking forward to having one or two on the cruise.
