stargate fan Posted June 4, 2014 #27 Share Posted June 4, 2014 Depends on the Maître 'D whether or not you'll be able to take food out of the MDR. I've only asked for the cheese plate to go. Same ship, two weeks apart, different Maître 'D, different answer. I never ask IF I can take dessert to go. I just take it. “It’s better to beg for forgiveness than to ask for permission.” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kaye25e Posted June 5, 2014 #28 Share Posted June 5, 2014 Princess do a balcony dinner which includes lobster. There is extra charge for this Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fireofficer5 Posted June 5, 2014 #29 Share Posted June 5, 2014 (edited) This is how noro starts. Eat in the MDR. Or order room service. Don't play self waiter, touching walls, elevator buttons, stair rails, etc.... I'm on the cruise too. Do you thinkyour room is really that clean.

serene56 Posted June 5, 2014 #30 Share Posted June 5, 2014 I would like to have a nice dinner on balcony.? here is what your balcony will look like: http://0.tqn.com/d/cruises/1/0/1/L/6/Carnival-Breeze-0662.JPG there is the small table-- do you really think you can have a nice dinner in that area? there is some areas up on the decks that have chairs and tables located by windows.

What does taking a plate of dessert from the dining room have to do with Noro, touching walls, elevator buttons, and stair rails? You do know that there is food available in other non-main dining room venues, right? The Taste Bar on Promenade is one example. And then you say to order room service but ask if the room is really that clean...I'm confused. :confused: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fireofficer5 Posted June 5, 2014 #32 Share Posted June 5, 2014 (edited) Theres nothing cleaner on the ship than the areas where you eat. MDR, buffet. Bring food by yourself to your room or the pool area, your touching things other than a glass, napkin or utinsels. Lots of invisible bugs waiting to jump aboard.

There are food venues outside by the pools. Popcorn is served on ships that have the big movie screen, also by the pool. Snacks are served at the Past Guest parties that take place in the main show lounge. We've brought our food everywhere on the ship so we could enjoy eating while watching show, laughing at a comedian, to enjoy on our balcony. In 16 cruises, we've never gotten sick.

I know, eating lobster on my balcony is probably the worst place I can imagine. Who wants to eat in your cabin. Like going to a hotel and ordering room service.

fireofficer5 Posted June 5, 2014 #35 Share Posted June 5, 2014 (edited) Ok, let me put it this way. Do you eat in a bathroom? (any bathroom) No, because its not an eating area. Sorry for the thread hijack, continue with the lobster dinner on the balcony conservation. Edited June 5, 2014 by fireofficer5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bookbug53 Posted June 5, 2014 #36 Share Posted June 5, 2014 A small piece of tail meat already pulled out of the tail does not really constitute a 'lobster'. Pretty much 3 bites and you are done. It would not be worth the time to even run back to your cabin with it or have it served there. Now plop a whole lobster on my plate with all the trimmings and give me a lobster bib and a dinner on the balcony would be amazing! :D:p Actually a proper lobster feed on their own private beach would be the way to go!!! ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
b_cruise Posted June 6, 2014 Author #37 Share Posted June 6, 2014 Okay fellow cruisers, let's take a breath...lol!! I have never had a balcony, had some romantic notion of a nice dinner and wine on the balcony.:confused::confused: Sorry, did not realize it was that small. Also, did not even think of noro..I'm bad!! But don't people eat in their room all the time? Personally, I have never even ordered room service. Probably won't now as I'm scared of viruses!! On one carnival cruise kids were eating their burgers in the freaking pool..I almost gagged! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kvlivin4jc Posted June 6, 2014 #38 Share Posted June 6, 2014 I guess it really does depend on the ship/staff. A woman in front of me in line at the Lido buffet mentioned that she was able to call the MDR and order food and they delivered it to her room the night before. Someone asked how she knew what they were serving that night and she said she just asked what was on the menu and they read it to her. I personally wouldn't be interested in doing that but apparently it happens sometimes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PortSideCruzan Posted June 6, 2014 #39 Share Posted June 6, 2014 (edited) I have done the ultimate balcony dinner on princess and it was awesome If you ever go on princess it is so worth it . Kathy Hi Kathy :) My wife & I have done the Ultimate Balcony Dining experience on Princess as well, and it was outstanding! They made our teenie tiny balcony look and feel wonderful, warm & cozy. We were given two private waiters, fresh flowers, champagne, a four-course meal, including lobster & steak. A photographer came to our balcony to snap a few photo's and a complementary photo was delivered to our cabin later in the evening. We paid $50 per person for the experience, worth every penny! Everything was extremely intimate, romantic and scrumptious! :) Edited June 6, 2014 by PortSideCruzan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
