cherylscruises Posted June 17, 2015 #1 Share Posted June 17, 2015 Im cruising the Pride this December and I thought I saw mentioned somewhere that the menu is changing this year but can't find any info to confirm this. Has anyone else heard this? A change would be nice :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
isaiahsnana Posted June 18, 2015 #2 Share Posted June 18, 2015 It is my understanding that the American Table/American Feast menus will be on all ships this year at some point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Believe I saw something where the Pride is getting it by Sept. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Weeziblu Posted June 18, 2015 #4 Share Posted June 18, 2015 That was stated earlier this year... Pride was supposed to get the new menus beginning in Aug but it was just announced that only 2 additional ships will be getting American Table and Pride isn't one of them 😞 Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I heard that the Dream would be getting it before we sail in November (I think July was the month that I heard but I'm not sure about that). Do you know if that one is still getting American Table?

vwrestler171 Posted June 18, 2015 #6 Share Posted June 18, 2015 Dream isn't one of them. the ships are Magic and I think Triumph is the 2nd one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
love my grandkids Posted June 18, 2015 #7 Share Posted June 18, 2015 Wonder why they have slowed down making this fleet wide? Old menus have become rather boring already. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
springs741 Posted June 18, 2015 #8 Share Posted June 18, 2015 John Heald announced on June 12th that only two more ships, the Magic on 07/19/2015 and Triumph on 08/10/2015, will be getting the American Table menus this year. In addition it is already on the Freedom, Liberty, Inspiration, Imagination, Breeze and the Glory. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I heard that the Dream would be getting it before we sail in November (I think July was the month that I heard but I'm not sure about that). Do you know if that one is still getting American Table? Dream was scheduled for July 19th. As you now know that is not happening. I for one am disappointed. I was ready for a change and my next sailing on the Triumph was scheduled to begin the new menu two sailings before mine. Now I will have to wait until December on the Freedom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
katiel53 Posted June 18, 2015 #11 Share Posted June 18, 2015 I, too am disappointed that Dream isn't getting the New American Table menu. We are sailing July 26 and again on the Journey cruise in October. I had the new menu on Liberty last year and I really enjoyed it. I don't know why it's not being implemented, just that John said it wasn't going to be done this year. It doesn't seem to me to be a difficult thing to change, but what do I know?

debonaire1998 Posted June 18, 2015 #12 Share Posted June 18, 2015 Hello, Sailing on the Sunshine in a few weeks. Does anyone know the menu details for that ship? I was on the Ecstasy in the spring, and saw lots of fried chicken as an option ...... I'm guessing that was the "new American" menu? It seems everyone is very excited about the change, maybe I'm missing something? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

American menu was just a bunch of new and old dishes with a bunch of new desserts with certain things served family style. Was a welcome change on Liberty and Glory and looking forward to seeing it on our next cruise on Glory this fall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DocF Posted June 18, 2015 #14 Share Posted June 18, 2015 There has been a major degree of resistance to the changes of the American Table program from the long-time Carnival cruisers. The new menus have been in a state of flux, with continuous revisions being made. To DW and me, the lack of a tablecloth and the reduced place setting takes away most of the elegance in the dining room. Since we are becoming a nation of slovenly people, this is one more evidence of this. We will most likely not be cruising Carnival after our current brief cruise with our 8 y. o. granddaughter. No, we are not in the least snobs; we both worked hard for a living and live a modest lifestyle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Between Liberty and Glory there are differences in American Table just dont remember which is which but one has tablecloths and less family style.

meatloafsfan Posted June 18, 2015 #17 Share Posted June 18, 2015 I'm disappointed. We have the 21 day B2B journey cruises booked for January 2016 and I was very much looking forward to trying the new menus. Unless they roll them out at the beginning of January, we'll have the same menus we had the repositioning cruise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
meatloafsfan Posted June 18, 2015 #18 Share Posted June 18, 2015 What does family style mean? Family style is where there is one dish for the table and everyone serves themselves from it (i.e. like you may eat at home where there's a large bowl of salad and everyone uses the tongs to take how much they like). It's a moot point though, all family style servings have been removed from the menu and are replaced with single, personal servings. (originally I believe it was calamari, flatbreads and maybe one of the salads that were to be served family style). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The new menu doesn't have fried chicken or the meatloaf from the old one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BcIcemen Posted June 19, 2015 #20 Share Posted June 19, 2015 I will be on a 7 day cruise on the Liberty in Nov. Does anyone have photos of the menu? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bamagirl_gina Posted June 19, 2015 #21 Share Posted June 19, 2015 We are on the Dream in February so, thinking we were going to have the American menus, I reviewed them. So, now that we aren't, can someone tell me where to find copies of the old menus that apparently will still be used in February on the Dream?

katiel53 Posted June 20, 2015 #22 Share Posted June 20, 2015 Do a google search for carnival menus and find the posts from zydecocruiser. He has the old menus with pics and also the new ones. I can't remember if it is Dream specific, but it does have the menus that we had on Dream. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
