Dinning on the Majestic

Recommended Posts

Just a random question as I'm getting prepared to sail on the beautiful majestic princess on one of her first voyages out to Alaska does.

 

Does anyone know, or think that the majestic princess will be Americanized to follow more of the American needs as I know she was made for the Asian market ?

 

I looked over the harmony restaurant menu which I know takes place of sabatini's on a typical Princess ship. I don't see, or I could be completely wrong that the Cantonese menu is going to be a big hit at all here in the states. And I know they have a noodle bar that took place I think where the burgers are 

 

Curious here what everyone's thoughts, or any knowledge that you may have in regards to possibly americanizing the majestic princess. I'm sad to see that the pizza on the lido deck will not be up on the lido deck even though I know they have Alfredo's but it's two different styles of pizza.

I am interested as well and am hoping that those on the early Majestic cruises in 4-6 weeks will report back. Although, that does not help you, unfortunately, but perhaps you could be that 'first on the scene' reporter!

Sounds like it. I'm on the second sailing August 1st. I'm in contact with some crew I know who just joined onboard but they're all in quarantine right now so they have no clue what's going on 😂

Can you post the menues?

If you just Google majestic princess harmony menu it's a very first link that pops up as it's a PDF.

 

Or are you referring about posting menus once I'm on board in the main dining room?

I mean the Alaska Majestic Harmony Restaurant Menus.  Sorry I wasn't explicit (I'm on the 8/15 cruise)

Well I would presume that the harmony money is going to be the same but always is as that's usually how it's always been for all their specialty restaurants like crown grill or sabatini's or La Mer doesn't matter destination.

 

I'm excited for you on your upcoming Cruise as your 2 weeks after me.

Yes I too would be very interested to see if they will be changing around any of their dining options to accommodate the North American clientele. I looked at that Harmony menu and there's not a single thing on there I would even touch.

 

I as well enjoy my New York style pizza up on that lido deck hopefully that will be available.

Picked the only things that look interesting to me. Not sure it's worth it20210623_174304.thumb.jpg.391cbfda64c0691c38af28ccf7e86080.jpg

You had better luck than me. I always love creme brulee but I'm not sure about red bean in it.

Do you have the menu from there? I need to relook at what they offer. I wonder if it's just the same exact concept of the noodle bar station that they do in the back of the lido deck on the Caribbean Princess.

I didn't see a menu just the write up. I'll post one on 8/15 😁

Awesome. Can't wait to read your review on it. And I'll try to do the same if I end up giving it a try so that way you have an idea as well prior to your cruise.

Cruises that we've been on leaving from the West Coast have a lot, maybe a majority, of West Coast people. Cantonese or other Chinese cuisines are really popular out here.

You make an excellent point that I definitely didn't think about.

The Majestic used to have a VIP gaming room next to the casino, and the Vista Lounge was called the "Vista Gaming Lounge", with mah jong tables everywhere, so there have been some recent changes, but at least according to what is shown on the Medallion App, the rest of the ship is the same.  What earthly purpose is gained by still having a dedicated Karaoke section next to the spa, or having an all-ages "Hollywood Conservatory" replacing the Sanctuary, I don't know....

Like I said I'm really curious to know what will be or if there will be any adjustments to things on board the ship to me more of the clientele on its current position.

 

Regardless I'm just excited to be sailing again very soon!

I’ve sailed on the Majestic & everything was geared towards the American market. Any other questions please ask.

I am also on the 8/1 sailing and I’m hoping they have some of the same Asian cuisine. It will be a nice change from typical American cruise fare for me. I love the noodle bar concept! My first cruise was on HAL and they had a nearly exclusively Asian crew and served he best miso for breakfast and sushi all day at the buffet. I like when a line allows their crew’s ethnicity to show through.
