barbarah33 Posted May 16, 2006 #26 Share Posted May 16, 2006 Any soufflé is always welcome in front of me - though they don't make too many. I like their key lime pie and as silly as it sounds the 'always available' but never advertised chicken noodle soup. It can be a tad bit salty but I am a salt-aholic anyway so it doesn't bother me. They make it fresh daily and after several days of all that rich food a nice cup - or a bowl if you ask for it, of chicken noodle with a roll and some butter is just the perfect lunch. (Or add a salad and you have a great lighter dinner.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2boxers Posted June 1, 2006 #27 Share Posted June 1, 2006 The braised veal shank was unbelievable, the panko crusted eggplant napoleon with balsamic reduction was fantastic, the onion tart, grand marnier souffle, the scallop risotto, thai noodles, and the fish stew I had 2 1/2 years ago are a few of my favorites!!

What ship was that on? I recall having the eggplant and thai noodles (Pad Thai) on Grandeur last year and they were awful. The Pad Thai was tasteless and gummy, and the eggplant was nothing more than eggplant parm without the cheese. Bertucci's (an east coast pizza/pasta chain) used to do an Eggplant Napoleon that was amazing -- it had little mozzarella balls stacked between layers of eggplant. Now, THAT was great! I am really hoping that the food on Explorer is much better than Grandeur last year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2boxers Posted June 2, 2006 #29 Share Posted June 2, 2006 All the items except the fish stew, I had on the Empress last fall before the ship moved to San Juan. The eggplant napoleon had layers of other veggies and fresh mozzarella with a sweet balsamic reduction. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MisterBill99 Posted June 2, 2006 #30 Share Posted June 2, 2006 Thanks for the info. I'm optimistic that the food on Explorer will be better than Grandeur. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JazzzLovr Posted September 15, 2006 #33 Share Posted September 15, 2006 We're going on our first Royal Caribbean cruise on Voyager in January. I read somewhere (probably elsewhere on this board!) that you can get cake delivered to your room for $7.95. Is the chocolate cake with chocolate butter frosting as delicious as it sounds? :D Tammie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhoneGoddess Posted September 15, 2006 #34 Share Posted September 15, 2006 The roasted red pepper soup in Portifino's on the Voyager was excellent! Everything that we had in Portifino's was Over The Top! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't see spending $8 for a cake that you can probably get for free elsewhere. And it sounds pretty standard to me.. nothing special. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gamomluvs2cruise Posted September 20, 2006 #36 Share Posted September 20, 2006 On the Serenade, the food at dinner was very good. The flourless chocolate cake was yummy!!! The tuna melt in the Seaview Cafe' was very good, also!:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
texas boop Posted September 20, 2006 #37 Share Posted September 20, 2006 Wonderful little rolls in the bread basket in the main dining room on the Rhapsody--our table tried to coerce the recipe out of our waiter and captain to no avail. They are probably made with a mix of flours (wheat, rye?) and have currants. Tasty! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EggDropErin Posted October 21, 2006 #41 Share Posted October 21, 2006 I would have to say it was the pumpkin apple soup that was either served on the last night or the next to last night. I tried it just to try it, and wow...what a pleasant surprise! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
srafnel Posted October 23, 2006 #42 Share Posted October 23, 2006 The strawberry soup...mmm.... I always get it for the appetizer, then the dessert, then maybe an extra bowl. :) The trick I've found with the chilled soups is that they will usually have them the following day in the windjammer-- just in case I didn't have enough the first night!

spotcat Posted October 26, 2006 #44 Share Posted October 26, 2006 I am indeed a foodie! My one and only cruise was last weekend on the Monarch of the Seas. I was so interested in all aspects of cruising that I just noticed this thread. Food is subjective. I thought that Windjammer had sub-par buffet breakfasts. Sheesh! At least give us some made to order eggs. I enjoyed all of my meals in the dining room. The soups were very good, some were great. We really enjoyed all of the options. Service was so wonderful, we were able to try most options. We were able to sample a liitle of each course. The key lime pie was sooo good! Off the wall choice for favorite food-beet root salad in Windjammer. The Thai beef salad was also great. I love sushi! Jade is ordinary, but the miso soup is excellent. DH loved the ribs at the Sunday BBQ. He is a big fan of rib cook-offs, so that is quite a compliment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruisin' the carribean Posted January 3, 2007 #45 Share Posted January 3, 2007 Just got back....Radiance of the seas....I loved the Jerk Chicken. I wish I had the recipe. Chops was great. Dining room was just fine although I wouldn't recommend the steaks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
