Our first Oasis cruise food review w/ dinner pics.

[Mouseearsusa]

Hello all, this was our first RCI cruise, and our first cruise since 2012. We've only cruised Disney, and Princess. We chose the June 17th Western on Oasis. I've been reading CC for the last 3 months to get a feel about the food(we are foodies). I will sort through my dinner pics and post so first timers like us can get an idea what to expect. Hoping Zoltar will tell us we'll have a fun cruise.

First nights dinner in the MDR, crispy calamari, and Caesar salad ( double starters) main course fish of the day (Mahi Mahi) and dessert was hazelnut chocolate cake, and apple pie a la mode. First nights dinner was fabulous, with great service no problems.

2nd nights dinner ( first formal night) we had dinner at Chops. Starters were Caesar salad, app was tuna tartare, and colossal shrimp cocktail. Main was the 9oz filet mignon with Gruyere cheese taters, cream spinach, and sautéed mushrooms. For dessert red velvet cake. Everything was delicious and the meat cooked perfect, again great service.

Day 4 and our favorite dinner on the cruise, CP 150. Starting with the delicious salts with the basket of breads, apps were butternut squash soup, and hand tossed tuna tartare. Our entree was the 18oz roast tenderloin for 2 ( carved table side) for dessert warm donuts and a tart. Food and service was impeccable loved this restaurant.

Day 5 back to the MDR for 2nd formal night (lobster night). Starters were chilled strawberry bisque, main course they had lobster tail and prime rib on the menu. I wanted both so I ordered the prime rib, and told them to add a lobster tail. The wifey got the optional surf n turf dinner. For dessert chocolate molten cake.

Day 6 was a great dinner & a show at Izumi hibachi. Started off with shrimp & vegetables tempura, a spicy tuna roll. For the main we chose the optional Samurai combo (tenderloin beef & tiger shrimp) the chef makes a big batch of fried rice for everyone at the table and our main course. For dessert a trio of Mochi ice cream ( mango, green tea, & strawberry. Everything was excellent.

Some of us are appreciative of you sharing your food experience on Oasis. Looks like you had a great time and might've even gained a few pounds. Hope you enjoyed the other aspects of the cruise as well. Thank you for sharing.

Thank you so much for posting pictures. I’ve sailed Oasis recently but always forget to take pics, I just start digging in. Hope everything else was as great as the food.

Our first RCI cruise was fabulous, the only food complaints were Windjammer and the MDR breakfast. We ate the buffet on the first day lunch, and that was the last time we stepped in there. It was pretty bad. The MDR breakfast food seemed to be sitting too long. We ate every breakfast in the Solarium bistro. Smaller batches equaled fresher food. Pic of us from CP 150

Off the food subject, I've read about these items but didn't really see pics so for any first time cruisers here they are. I use a cpap machine and brought a 10 ft extension cord ( no surge protector) I heard there was was an outlet near the head board so a little investigating as for the coolers/ fridge not being cold enough, ours kept everything very cold. the showers are small, yes they are.

Hi,

Thank you so much! :D I just am not sure about your wife's 'Turf' of the Surf n Turf dinner selection. Maybe it's just shadows, but the steak looks like it's formed by combining other cuts. I don't know of a better way to describe what I see.
