Clarea Posted October 15, 2017 #2 Share Posted October 15, 2017 Does anyone know what the main dining room menu looks like on the independence in England and France I believe it's the same old "spice" named menus they have had for several years now. There may be some differences in an entree here and there. http://www.royalcaribbeanpresscenter.com/download-press-kit/7/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Soups, escargot and steak available every night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tin can Posted October 15, 2017 #4 Share Posted October 15, 2017 It is the same menu but will have different specials, pies and Indian food and the like. The promenade cafe will be the same, the usual staples with a few British influences. That’s our findings anyway when comparing our Oasis cruise at Easter to our usual UK sailings.

sddsddean Posted October 16, 2017 #6 Share Posted October 16, 2017 The only difference I've found is in the Windjammer at breakfast where you have an 'English breakfast' area. Here you will get proper back bacon (not that horrible fried to death fatty stuff that gives streaky bacon a bad name), proper baked beans, black pudding (which is wonderful fried despite what everyone says...they are wrong!) and sometimes even fried bread!

Rare mcatmcat Posted October 16, 2017 #8 Share Posted October 16, 2017 I believe it will be the same menu but no lobster. On the other had I took a cruise from Barcelona and the food at the windjammer was amazing. Shrimp every day, great selection of desert etc..

Rare little britain Posted October 18, 2017 #21 Share Posted October 18, 2017 There is a new menu called “celery” ( only a Chelsea fan will get the irony of that one [emoji15]!) which as fish fingers as a starter!!

sddsddean Posted October 18, 2017 #23 Share Posted October 18, 2017 Absolutely not. I've tried that on the ship and I don't intend to even try to acquire a taste for that! Nothing personal Bob, but like I said, you are wrong!;) Fried black pudding with breakfast is an essential! Try pease pudding with bacon. The pease pudding reminds me, if you get a chance, try proper butcher's ******s (not those terrible mince balls that Brains sell) with loads of mash, pease pudding and gravy...proper comfort food!:hearteyes: If you don't mind losing your teeth, try pork scratchings as well. These again are miles better from a butcher than the pre packed ones in the supermarkets. I am getting very hungry!!!!
