Off MDR Menu Orders Question

[kjg46]

I have viewed a number of posts regarding "fan favorite" items now longer listed on the MDR menu. (e.g. Beef Medallions etc.)

 

Question: Can items that are not listed on the MDR menu be ordered? If so, do you have to

request in advance?

If you walk into the dining room and request them, the staff may or may not be able to honor your request and you will be waiting while the item is prepared IF they can do it.

 

If you ask a day ahead, you have a better chance that they can do it and you'll have less waiting at meal time.

 

They can always say "no" if they don't have the ingredients available or the staff time to do a special request--they have set stuff that is loaded on for each length of cruise and planned menus. While much of the time they can manage, it isn't like they can make a run to the corner grocery (my family ALWAYS comes up with suggestions for something I don't have!)

Depends. If you like something and want it again the next night, you can ask your server to let the chef know. Or if its a little different preparation of something on the menu, that can usually be done.

But you can't really expect something totally new to be prepared. Think of the hundreds the kitchen is trying to get out without a hitch. ;)
