Just sailed the Legend, perhaps I can help.

 

I spoke with the Windjammer chef on my first day aboard. Chin was very helpful, but he's gone on holiday after our cruise. Ask any of the staff that has "stripes". If you ask any one else they'll just get them anyway. It seemed that they were the ones that had to handle my bread and order my pancakes.

 

Normal breakfast options and GF pancakes on request. Allow up to 15 minutes for anything GF. I didn't care for the bread they served - I did take my own.

 

At first I ordered off the GF options on the menu. When I saw a turkey entree I requested that it be served without what ever made it contain Gluten. It didn't wrk well that first request, but after talking to the hotel manager, Jorge, I never was disappointed again.

 

that os until the last night. On disembarkation day I awoke and knew I had been contaminated. You can't mistake that! Don't know what it was, perhaps the sauce on the lamb, so be careful always.

 

Cafe Latitudes, deck 6, offers GF muffins during morning hours and GF Chocolate cake for tea.

 

Anything else you need to know on this ship just ask.

Thank you for very helpful info !!

My husband is celiac. We are taking our first Princess cruise on the Coral for an Alaskan cruise tour this July. Our very first cruise was with Carnival for our honeymoon 4 years ago. We had pretty good care in the dining room although the options weren't large. I am hoping that there will be more safe foods available this cruise. In the Carnival ship, if we didn't eat in the dining room, there was no way to know what was safe. And the buffet was disappointing and limited for him. (I loved the ship and everything else though.)

My questions are... does the Coral Princess have free ice cream like Carnival does? Have any celiacs used the buffet successfully? Has anyone taken the Denali tour and if so, what did you eat? Did you let the land tour know ahead of time and how? Ok, that's all for my first time. Thanks, Denise

Guys , what are my Vegan/ Gluten free options on the LEGEND ( First time cruisers ) ?/

Or am i just STUCK with fruits/ veg/ salads etc on a HOLIDAY ( Which i LOVE n ADORE at home )

Many thanks xx

I have not yet been on the Carnival Legend, but I would think he will have to take off his hat to go in the dinning room and I think he will have to dress some what up (like a shirt & long pants) to go in the dinning room, if not he / you guys will be eating at the buffet.

So Buffet style is NOT really the BEST food option !!! Ouch

I dont actually do shows or many of the activities onboard but on Carnival Dream in June people were raving about the quality of the shows so perhaps Carnival will up the production quality on all its ships even the ones in OZ?

Sorry guys, really SILLY question. Hubby does NOT do any DRESS up, infact NEVER wore a suit, dreading taking his HAT off in dinning room !!!

Hoping its more relaxed OZZY style attire !!!! We are first time cruisers.

Any input wud be greatly appreciated!!

Thanks again guys
