[Sea42]

Thank you so much for your efforts! My tummy is rumbling just reading it!

Could someone tell if room service is available on the Master Chef dinner night?

Thanks!

[catl331]

Sure it is available as well as the Lido buffet as well as other restaurants.

[cruiseman111111]

We took Noordam many in 1994, food was excellent...

[Sea42]

Sure it is available as well as the Lido buffet as well as other restaurants.

Thank you!

[Krazy Kruizers]

Sometimes we have gone to the Pinnacle -- sometimes the Canaletto for dinner on the Master Chef night.

We haven't tried the Lido yet for dinner.

We don't do room service anymore -- too often the food arrived cold and we did not get everything that we ordered -- and that was just for breakfast.

[jkrislc]

Thanks, KK, for the time to type this all out. While I won't be on the ship, I enjoy reading the MDR menus. I'm also glad to see that they're still serving the watermelon pie as this was my DS' (4) favorite of the cruise.

[Krazy Kruizers]

For awhile the watermelon pie was not available on some of our cruises.

DH was glad to see it back.

[lisad63]

Thanks for the teaser. I'll be on the Noordam again on January 2!

[Hugahav]

Thanks so much for taking the time to post this! The only problem is that I'm hungry now and it's 11:20 pm, lol! We sailed the Noordam for 20 glorious days in 2009, can't wait to experience another 'dam' cruise. ;)

[Krazy Kruizers]

Since our 10 and 11 day cruises were the first ones after the Noordam came back from Europe -- I am not certain if the menus will remain the same or not. They might do some tweeking as some items may not have gone over well.

[thetexasaggiecruiser]

Thank you so much! We were wondering yesterday how we could get these menus, and here they are. Really nice of you to post these.

[Krazy Kruizers]

You are welcome.

If you have any questions about specific items -- please ask.

[thetexasaggiecruiser]

We do have one. Did you have the the Caribbean Thermidor? I've heard it's excellent. (And, we were just talking about your menu posts, I said I'm going to take pics of every menu and such, so I can help out future cruisers as much as you have!).

[sppunk]

This will sound weird, but HAL's Banana Ice Cream is the best ice cream I've ever had. I ask for it every night! :)

[Beyondthe7Seas]

KrazyKruisers -- how was the Noordam in general?
