Luminae Deserts

Currently on board Reflection and enjoying a Sky Suite for the first time

 

It’s only day two but all I can say about Luminae deserts is ......OMG[emoji39]. I will be so fat at the end of this cruise

Wow, Luminae must be even more special than I thought. Imagine: their very own desert in the midst of all that ocean! Brilliant! By the way, how are the desserts?

Yesterday I had the White Chocolate Macadamia Cake and I thought it was the best desert I have ever had. Today I had the Chocolate Lava Cake and decided that it was the best desert I have ever had

 

Can’t wait until dinner ....[emoji39]

How long is your cruise? Around day 10 they usually offer the chocolate sphere. Not to be missed IMO and I like all of the desserts except Baked Alaska.

Day 2 of 10 on the lovely, post dry dock Reflection

 

There is a weight scale in the bathroom .... what a cruel sense of humour this cruise ship has - lol

Just noticed my spelling error - lol. Deserts rather than desserts

 

I’ll blame it on the fine glass of Malbec that accompanied the Chocolate Lava Cake 🍷

The chocolate sphere is my favorite!

Don’t forget you can get the MDR Creme Brûlée every night.

Now my mouth is watering...I agree, as I have also had some great desserts in Luminae!! My aunt always eats her dessert first...she is 94, and very tiny!

I actually expected that this thread was going to be about how terrible they are! I can't eat a lot of dairy so I avoid most of them, but the ones I have tried weren't very good. And the dessert cart has been terrible both times I've tried things from it. I love Luminae otherwise.

My late aunt who was in her 90s always ate her dessert first. Said she did it just in case.

Do they have nice cheeses in Luminae? (same as the specialty restaurants, or the stuff up on the buffet?).

Not on the menu, but ask nicely and you shall receive.

So tonight we shared a flan with a pomegranate sorbet. Good but not outstanding, lacked taste. However the Veal Cannelloni -my entree - jaw dropping delicious. How do they do it [emoji39]

We missed out on the "flambe" experience. Apparently maratine health and safety legislation does not allow them to do this whilst in Australian and NZ waters. Still one of the best desserts I have ever tasted though!

It was on the dessert menu every night on the Summit last week. I didn't order the cheese course, so can't comment on the quality.

I have had the fruit and cheese plate for dessert in Luminae and it was wonderful! It was on the menu.

Do you know if the Pavlov is available every evening?

20 sleeps until we board.

Thank you for setting me straight.

 

I can't speak to the cheese that is on the dessert menu. The group I was with was ordering it as a starter and it was a nice selection of cheese that seemed to be the same as what is available in Murano. I was looking for a photo, didn't find one, but they would bring us a big platter for 4 people to share with 4 or 5 cheeses, dried apricots, walnuts, grapes, and crackers.
