cruzrbachoua Posted April 20, 2017 #14 Share Posted April 20, 2017 Are you seeing red velvet, too???:D YUP!!! And something chocolatey next to it...maybe another cupcake and then it looks like some cakes or something...yeah there is fruit too..plltthh.. bring on the dessert! :p I am a good girl all year so I can splurge on these yummies! I really love the donuts in the IC, and most of the desserts. We were on celebrity last year and both DH and I agreed that their pastry chef needed to train with princes as Princess has the best desserts. Not too sweet and moist. I love that flourless chocolate cake in the MDR......oh ok I am drooling on my keyboard now...haha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's been a few years since I was on Princess so I guess I'll have to try EVERYTHING to refresh my memory. Good thing I'm headed to the gym now!!!!!!

Yup burn it off now to gain it back on the cruise I say. Never tried their eclairs...not my thing. I did try celebrity cookies...dry compared to princess moist cookies. I was like how do you mess up a cookie? Although I will give credit to celebrity for the free hard ice cream served in the buffet...well until they ran out of my fav...mint choc chip..

Lobez Posted April 20, 2017 #19 Share Posted April 20, 2017 Anyone know if there is an additional charge for any of the new eateries? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fancygap Posted April 20, 2017 #20 Share Posted April 20, 2017 Disembarked this morning. They didnt finish the drydock upgrades and are still working on it. The new Worldmarket buffet is a bust in my opinion. The food was blend and not much choice. Sabatini had mixed reviews based on what I heard. The crown grill seems to be the place to go for a great meal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Astro Flyer Posted April 20, 2017 #21 Share Posted April 20, 2017 Anyone know if there is an additional charge for any of the new eateries? Per Princess, Steamers & Planks have a $12 surcharge to dine there in the evening; Salty Dog Grill has a $5 fee for their gourmet burger or $8 for the burger & a beer. The Steamers & Planks menus are only in the evening with the fee but during the day it appears to be an extension of the buffet without any fee.

fancygap Posted April 20, 2017 #22 Share Posted April 20, 2017 Steamers & Planks have free breakfast. It's better than dining room and/or buffet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shipfriend_max Posted April 20, 2017 #23 Share Posted April 20, 2017 Steamers & Planks have free breakfast. It's better than dining room and/or buffet. So it's more or less an extension of the buffet restaurant without any fee during daytime? Is it still possible to eat outside for free in the evening (@Outrigger Bar) although there's the two new fee-eateries? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
