YeaYeaYea Posted July 29, 2009 #1 Share Posted July 29, 2009 I liked the bread pudding in the LIDO and have to say it was some of the best I have ever had. The Gran mariner< how ever you spell it> was my choice for #1 in the Vista. I also liked the pound cake with the vanilla sauce.;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JimVrhovac Posted July 29, 2009 #2 Share Posted July 29, 2009 I would highly recommend that you take the time to sample all of them and make up your own mind. Bread pubing has a very high egg content is a must.... Ruth & Jim Note We sample all of them and still lose weight on the cruises. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Copper10-8 Posted July 29, 2009 #5 Share Posted July 29, 2009 I'll need a glass of milk with that John...............even the plate looks good!!! Got that right! The only place you can get them is at a Dutch bakery/store if you happen to have one in your neighborhood. Plus poster Ine's got a connect but she's in Holland Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tricia724 Posted July 29, 2009 #6 Share Posted July 29, 2009 My favorite dessert is.....sniff.....gone from the Holland America menu. At least I haven't seen it for quite a while, and the waiters don't seem to know what I'm talking about. So, if anyone from Holland America is reading this thread.....Bring back the chocolate tulip!

zentmrs Posted July 29, 2009 #7 Share Posted July 29, 2009 We had a chocolate torrone (sp) on our last cruise that was quite simply the best chocolate dessert ever. Wish I could find that recipe! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dandro Posted July 29, 2009 #8 Share Posted July 29, 2009 Enjoyed the Tiramisu, also the Volcano cake was very good, but rich. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jjb415 Posted July 29, 2009 #11 Share Posted July 29, 2009 For me, sometimes the Volcano Cake is the best !!! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stevesan Posted July 29, 2009 #12 Share Posted July 29, 2009 What was your best desert on HAL???? I enjoyed the tour through the Moroccan desert. The scenery was a bit boring, but it was a unique experience. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krazy Kruizers Posted July 29, 2009 #13 Share Posted July 29, 2009 This is a toss up for me. In the Pinnacle -- between the Chocolate Volcano Cake and their suffles. The chocolate and vanilla souffles made in the Pinnacle are done individually and right when you order at the beginning of dinner -- not in mass like in the dining room.

gizmo Posted July 29, 2009 #14 Share Posted July 29, 2009 In the main dining room the best was the chocolate/coffee bombe. I also had a Grand Marnier souffle served at a suite dinner many years ago. It was wonderful. The worst was the Volcano Cake. I know a lot of people love it but the one I tasted was like a hockey puck. :eek: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

debshomespun Posted July 29, 2009 #17 Share Posted July 29, 2009 The Grand Mariner Souffle! With the Rum Sauce! Yummy! They are the best! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krazy Kruizers Posted July 29, 2009 #18 Share Posted July 29, 2009 I used to like the bread pudding -- but haven't had it in a long time. Seems like whenever I got it the bread part was cold and the sauce was watered down. The best bread pudding I have had has been on the Amsterdam -- they had the chocolate melted in the bread and there was a chocolate sauce -- nice and thick.

kakalina Posted July 29, 2009 #19 Share Posted July 29, 2009 Another vote for the Chocolate Souffle with the warm Grand Marnier sauce, next would be the tri flavored creme' brulee.Yummmm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alaskajo Posted July 29, 2009 #21 Share Posted July 29, 2009 The baked Alaska dessert in the Pinnacle Grill (Westerdam) was the best I've ever had. They flamed it at the table and it was delicious. If you have a chance to go to the Pinnacle Grill during your cruise you won't regret it. If I ever go back on the Westerdam I will make sure to book several nights; it was far better than the main dining room (which was fine but nothing out of the ordinary).

catl331 Posted July 29, 2009 #22 Share Posted July 29, 2009 I like the creme brulee in the Pinnacle BUT now I am wondering if I should try that souffle! Dang! I might have to spring for two nights. I really am not a dessert person. I do get the bread pudding at lunch once in the cruise. A few times though, on the Vistas, people have made a mess of it and I prefer having the server give out the portions.:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ekerr19 Posted July 29, 2009 #25 Share Posted July 29, 2009 My favorite HAL dessert - hands down, the Chocolate Espresso Bombe. Not to be missed. :D It's the first thing I look for when we get the menu each morning. If they are having it for dessert that evening, we are going to the dining room!
