Tonight on the Grand the offerings at the lounge were the best we have ever seen.   Bacon wrapped scallops, shrimp salad crostini, salmon flowers with cream cheese crostini, mozzarella sun dried pesto crostini, vegetable crudités, cheese bowls and macaroons.  Quite yummy.  

This is similar to what we had on the Grand in December. I forgot about the macaroons.

Here is the canapé menu we had the choice of for formal nights. I did not order any (slightly different than what someone else posted):

I don't really go for the foods (unless it's shrimp with cocktail sauce!)  I like going there as it is a bit of a quiet retreat where we can meet and quietly have some pre-dinner cocktails and discuss our experiences from earlier in the day.  I've never ordered any of the specialty drinks from the bar, just my usual drinks.

My wife’s favorite is the Stilton cheese with Port wine reduction. We haven’t seen it since the restart.

photos look good to me. I could fill a plate with that variety.  Sit with fellow passengers, chat, drink and be merry.

They had it on the Sky in Nov/Dec

If you attend first night (without princess plus), local port tax is added. Drink price plus 18% service charge plus 9.75% (ymmv) local tax. $6.50 drink becomes $8.29.

I assume that is only if the ship has not left port and state waters yet.

No, first day. We were almost three hours away from port.

One could make a dinner out of all those goodies!  Seriously, with cocktails and all of those yummies, I'm not sure I would need to go to the dining room!
