Favorite dishes in Tamarind

[Krazy Kruizers]

WOW....thanks for the menu's and for making me gain 10lbs reading it. We will be sailing away to the Eastern Caribean on the 18th of Feb and we are so looking forward to our cruise. People have been mentioning that the Pinacle is also open for lunch. Is there a fixed menu for the lunch there, and is their a charge for the lunch?

We both found the tenderloin to be quite good in our experiences.

 

I know others have found just the opposite.

 

All my tenderloins were excellent that I had in the Tamarind as well.

Oh now you have me all excited about remembering our fabulous 2 dinners in Tamarind on NA!

 

The outstanding parts of our first dinner:

Started with the Chicken Pho soup which was OUTSTANDING!

Then the Red Curry Penang, OMG - to die for!

Service was excellent!

 

We had originally reserved a 2nd meal in Pinnacle (which we have done in the first week of the 2 week cruise) - and enjoyed Tamarind sooo much, we requested our reservation be moved to go for a 2nd time to Tamarind...and I really, really tried hard to have something different, but enjoyed the above sooo much, I re-ordered the exact same meal!

 

Don't forget to go early and have a cocktail in the Silk Den! We sat at the bar, the bartender was excellent, and so was the Flirtini Martini :D

 

We will be cruising the Zuidy this coming Sept...we wish the Tamarind would be added to all the other same class ship!!!

 

Thanks for the YUMMY memories and on Bn Apetit

The Eurodam and Nieuw Amsterdam ships are Signature Class ships.

The Zuiderdam, Oosterdam, Westerdam and Noordam are Vista class ships. And they can't support the extra weight that is needed for the Silk Den, Tamarind Restaurant and kitchen.

Make sure you enjoy the Pan Asian cuisine.

 

If not, Tamarind is not the place for you.

They are quite large and taste great. Also the duck and filet.

Oh I wasn't aware they were different class ships - that makes sense, THANKS KK for clarifying! ...but a girl can still dream that all HAL ships will have Tamarind & Silk Den added :D
