richinnc Posted October 5, 2011 #1 Share Posted October 5, 2011 We've been on two previous HAL cruises and my wife loves their bread pudding. It is available on the Zaandam? We are sailing in May of 2012 to Alaska.:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maxout Posted October 5, 2011 #2 Share Posted October 5, 2011 It has been available on every Hal trip and ship I have been on so far :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loreto Posted October 5, 2011 #3 Share Posted October 5, 2011 Bread Pudding is always available on every ship on the Lido...I like to add a scoop of ice cream on top.:) The recipe is also offered. On our Amsterdam Alaska Cruise last month in was even on the menu as a dessert choice in the MDR. Enjoy! Karen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krazy Kruizers Posted October 5, 2011 #4 Share Posted October 5, 2011 Yes -- it is on all ships -- you can have my portion. I really don't care for it. The only one I really like is the chocolate bread pudding that is offered several days at lunch only on the Amsterdam. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
startwin Posted October 5, 2011 #5 Share Posted October 5, 2011 It certainly is. My willpower is really tested.. these days I just have a spoonful from DH's plate. HAL's bread pudding is soooo good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

luxurysailer Posted October 5, 2011 #7 Share Posted October 5, 2011 I don't recall seeing bread pudding on the menu on our recent cruise of the Amsterdam. Maybe I was just asleep at the menu. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's at the dessert bar in the lido.... a decadent mid-afternoon treat for us.;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EbayCruiser Posted October 5, 2011 #9 Share Posted October 5, 2011 I LOVE the bread pudding! It may sound crazy but that is the one food item that I look forward to on each HAL cruise. I have a pretty large bowl every day of my cruise. I guess that's why I tend to gain about 5 lbs. but it's worth it. I can lose it in a week when I get back home!! When we cruised on the Oasis of the Seas, they had a "form" of bread pudding one day in the Windjammer for lunch and it wasn't very good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruisinggranmama Posted October 5, 2011 #10 Share Posted October 5, 2011 And you have to get there early. It goes quickly. I'm not a fan, but my brother says only our mother made it better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

debsea Posted October 6, 2011 #12 Share Posted October 6, 2011 I skip lunch and have bread pudding instead. Sometimes they have varieties, but the one with vanilla sauce is the best. It is a standard on all HAL ships. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Okie1946 Posted October 6, 2011 #15 Share Posted October 6, 2011 I am from the south and take my word, HAL's bread pudding is only second to my grandmother's. But it is even BETTER when you put a big scoop of Cinnamon Ice Cream on top of it. You get a double dose of the flavor and it is almost heaven. Previous Cruises: Alaska - Westerdam - September 2009 Alaska- Rotterdam - September 2010 Mexican Riveria - Oosterdam - April 2011 Future Cruises – in planning stage: September, 2012 - Alaska – Amsterdam - 14 day cruise 2013 Eastern Med - 28 day (includes cruising Black Sea) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eh2zed Posted October 6, 2011 #16 Share Posted October 6, 2011 If they ever discontinued the bread pudding there would be a mutiny. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bippie Posted October 6, 2011 #18 Share Posted October 6, 2011 On a recent Eurodam cruise, they did have bread pudding in the Lido. However, I almost missed it because it was not located near the other desserts. Instead, it was by itself on the other side of the sushi station. Glad I found it - it was good. I'm surprised at how many places (not HAL) make bad bread pudding. When prepared correctly, this is one of my favorite desserts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eh2zed Posted October 6, 2011 #19 Share Posted October 6, 2011 I can make a meal of it while DW is quite the opposite. Thats why I don't get it at home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only one I really like is the chocolate bread pudding that is offered several days at lunch only on the Amsterdam. Hope I'm understanding you correctly, but the chocolate version was also offerred on my recent Volendam sailing, as well as on Volendam last year, and Statendam the year before. It really is a nice 'upgrade' from the regular version, but very rich. It's a ritual for me to have a little every day.....thanks to all the positive recommendations from the folks here:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oofroggie Posted October 6, 2011 #23 Share Posted October 6, 2011 My late husband loved the bread pudding. When I would book another cruise he would ask is it the bread pudding ships and I always said yes. So holland America was never a DAM ship but a bread pudding ship.

Lucy Jane Posted October 6, 2011 #25 Share Posted October 6, 2011 Gotta try that in a few weeks on the Statendam.Thanks Yes, I too love Bread Pudding - aways have it for desert or afrternoon snack in the Lido. I just wish they would used warm Eagle Brand milk as a topping. See you at the bread pudding station on the 28th! Nancy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
