Food Preferences - what would you like to see improved????

[John&LaLa]

Apple pie please, or at least apple strudel. I couldn't get apple anything on the Freedom a few years ago

Apple pastry every day at breakfast every time I've gone. Highlight of the day. :D

I agree with that it would be great if bar food was available in the bars --

 

chicken fingers

potato skins

mozz sticks

cheese curds

pretzels w/ sauces

potato wedges

I have to agree with the biscuits and gravy. I found the biscuits to be to sweet and I had to put a lot of pepper in the gravy. I added sausage into the gravy as well.

Better pizza!!!

REAL bagels!!!

Better desserts!!!

I agree, the MDR menus have gone down hill!

Flavored waters 24/7, I have to run to the WJ before 9pm to get my flavored water for the night....

More fish. Without all the fancy stuff on it.

One of my big complaints on all cruise lines I have been on is the dinner rolls in the MDR. Why can't they have some that are actually soft enough I don't need a carpenter saw to break in half.

 

I'm one of those people who likes to use the biscuit to get all the great sauces off the plate. Hard to do with the brick they call bread.

 

Same problem with the biscuits for breakfast, hard as rocks and try to put the gravy on them and its like a waterfall. The gravy can't even soften them up.

A better quality of beef in the MDR would be nice....

More Vegetarian and Vegan options!

[beckinoz]

1. I would like to see proper hash browns not potato gems as we call them here in Australia in the buffet.

 

2. Pumpkin soup on the menu.

 

3. Pub grub in the pub like you would get in an Aussie pub (for Australian cruises).

I would like to see organic food available. Whole grain pastas and breads should also be an option. Low carb items should have a symbol on the menu, so that you can quickly identify the healthy options.

 

The current food tends to be very salty. I would like to see less salt and more interesting spices used.

 

Fresh local seafood would also be nice to have, even if there were a charge for it.

Hey Skiier Girl & Mr Ski - Hope all is well

 

 

Bring back the Vidalia Onion Tart, the red butter and the real Mud pie!!!!!!!!!!

 

All is good here...crazy busy...but good. Hope 'y'all are well also!

 

Hugs to you both!

You know, the desserts USED to be fabulous....too pretty to eat, but if you DID eat them, they were scrumptious!

 

They used to have about 5 different salad choices each night...that would be nice!

 

They used to have 5 courses....that would be nice.

 

They used to have real silverware on the table, along with china and crystal glasses....I miss that !

 

I miss the molded butter pats resting on top of a small bowl of ice....and the different bread choices.

 

I miss the way cruising used to be....nowadays, it's like going to a Day's Inn, rather than Four Seasons......

 

I would rather pay more for more, than pay the same for less.

So have you gone on any of the luxury cruise lines?

[sellwingri]

Like a broken record, I also miss the Vidalia OnionTart. I can't believe that they haven't brought it back. Someone asks about it on every cruise.

You really think you are gonna get an answer? :D

I agree totally.

 

An increase of $20 per day would be an enormous increase in the operating budget for the entire dining aspect of cruising. If spent wisely and not on 30 foot bears it might lead to better quality, presentation, choice and service in not only the MDR but other venues as well.

 

For a 10 or 11 day cruise the added $200 or $220 per person per cruise would not put the total cost anywhere near what the so-called "Luxury" lines charge. I do not need free flowing champagne or caviar served 24/7.

 

I would be happy to pay the extra up front and not have to spend an additional $20, $30 or $40 dollars to get a better meal at a specialty restaurant.

Agree I would like to see the return of the Vandalia Onion Tart but not on the first night!

I would be happy if they just figured how to serve food hot that's supposed to be hot, and food that's supposed to be chilled to actually be chilled. Of course, my favorite dessert IS the ice cream soup that they serve in the WJ in the evenings ;)

The roast beef sandwiches need to be consistent .. Rolls soft, beef not so fatty... Solarium park cafe too. Would love to see eggs Benedict in windjammer

[palofmine]

So have you gone on any of the luxury cruise lines?

This was the norm on RC back in 1999, sorbet between courses, appetizer, soup, salad entree dessert

 

Now, bread, limited appetizers, limited salad, ... Just one night I'd like to see, crock pot beef lol grilled cheese and soup with salad, seasoned chicken whipped potatoes , biscuit, and Apple pie ala mode.. I know I'm dreaming

[2004corvette]

warm/heated rolls.....do enjoy a warm roll with melted butter.......not the hard chewy type i experience on nearly every cruise......such a simple task may be impossible when serving thousands of meals.....:(

[JamesEM]

Crispy bacon

Non precooked hamburgers

Cob Salad

I don't get it :confused:

[beerman2]

Agree bar food in bars! Wings, mozzarella sticks, garlic bread , nachos and cheese.

 

I would be willing to pay for an order of wings while having a few drinks.
