cydspal Posted April 11, 2004 #1 Share Posted April 11, 2004 Is it true that you can order anything at anytime from room service on the Diamond. I have heard stories like this and then we go on the cruise and you can order only a few items (sandwiches, etc.)...

katisdale Posted April 11, 2004 #2 Share Posted April 11, 2004 The menu for room service will only show a few things BUT during regular dining hours you can order off that meal's menu. Check what is offered on the menu posted outside the dining room and order away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cydspal Posted April 11, 2004 Author #3 Share Posted April 11, 2004 Wow..has anyone done this? Full Dinner (i.e. Lobster, Steak) brought to your room? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnmik1 Posted April 11, 2004 #4 Share Posted April 11, 2004 We have at least 1 dinner on the balcony on every cruise.Call room service and they will bring you the dinner menu. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stepg Posted April 11, 2004 #5 Share Posted April 11, 2004 Yes, I have ordered full (and it happened to be lobster) dinner on my balcony on the Grand. You must order EVERYTHING you can think of that you'll need with your meal (melted butter, bread...). The room service guy comes with a huge stack of plates with clear plastic covers on them, and sets the table on your balcony for your first course, and salad, if any, and leaves the other courses stacked and covered on the desk in the room. As you need each course, you yourself, obviously, go in and get it, and bring it out to the table. I also did this on the Diamond (not lobster, but a full meal, and the same held true). Whenever I get a full room service meal I always OVER-tip, in cash -- I want the crew to look forward to delivering room service meals.

stepg Posted April 11, 2004 #6 Share Posted April 11, 2004 PS: Forget the "room service menu" in the room. Call room service and tell them what you want. Chances are they'll figure out how to get it to you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cydspal Posted April 11, 2004 Author #7 Share Posted April 11, 2004 Stepg..you did this on the Diamond? How was it? How was your cabin (we have a balcony BC on the Aloha)..? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skogler Posted April 11, 2004 #8 Share Posted April 11, 2004 Sounds like a great idea to eat on the balcony. How long does it take for the food to arrive? And how did you tip?
