RedHeadTexan Posted December 24, 2018 #176 Share Posted December 24, 2018 3 hours ago, Crew News said: I don't remember seeing sushi in the Lido Market either and usually five entrees at the Asian Station. I think the Lido Market menus are provided by HAL but the ship can alter/add to them. It did seem like there were more offerings in the Lido Market than were on the menu with at least two soups each day. Fish and chips were available every day it seems with the fish cooked perfectly for me. I had sushi several times at Lunch in the Lido Market. It is in the Asian station on the side. You will not see it looking straight on at the stir fry area. Go to the left side and it's on the front corner next to the prepared noodle and rice dishes. The scallop sushi roll in Nami Sushi was fantastic. Lisa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMLincoln Posted December 24, 2018 #177 Share Posted December 24, 2018 Roger's research is a great asset! Thank you for the menus Roger, especially the Lido Market lunch menus, which I could not find anywhere... I asked and was told the menu isn't posted in the Lido, you have to go to each station and read the little "tent" signs on the counters, ugh! I probably missed out on some things because trying to get close enough to read the little signs means you have to practically break into the line. The Navigator app doesn't have the Lido menus for either lunch or dinner. This is not to say that I went hungry! I found many very good options and we made good use of other venues: NY style sandwiches, pizza, Dutch Cafe, Dive-In plus Lido's excellent salads and made to order sandwiches. And just for more incompleteness, neither MDR nor PG lunch menus were on the Navigator app. It's like lunch menus don't exist in the Navigator app... m-- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My MDR waiters don't mind saving them for me even for the nights I am not there for dinner. Now if I could just figure out how to keep my scans straight.

How was your PG dinner on the last night? It was fantastic! Since we gathered more OBC from the cancellation of HMC, I decided to get the Maine Lobster Tail. I haven't had Maine Lobster in years and it was perfectly cooked. I always enjoy spending our first night and last night at the Pinnacle. You looked like you were having a marvelous time at your table. On the sushi front...the sushi on Lido appeared to be hidden from view. I mean you really had to look hard to find it. The only reason I saw it was that I was picking up a raman bowl from the side that had the Asian entrees ready to go. It's hard to describe, but the sushi plates were elevated in the space and almost reached the bottom of the top shelf (where they hand the plates to you). I don't know if that makes sense and unfortunately I did not take a picture. There was not much variety, but what they had was good. Lisa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TrakHack Posted December 27, 2018 #196 Share Posted December 27, 2018 @Crew News thank for the time, energy, and thoroughness that went into your review! I am on the Königsdam at the end of January, and the information you have shared will help us enjoy our vacation, especially around dining (I have a sensitive stomach and don't like to make a ton of special requests - seeing the menus ahead of time really helps make the right venue choices!). Wish we could go on your upcoming Alaska cruise and meet you in person, but I think that will be a 2020 trip for us! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

According to my Culinary contacts, the 10-day and 11-day menu series vary by extracting one days menu late in the cruise. Copy my menus and then ask when you are on board which day will be removed. If you can get an answer early in your cruise, you will have be able to amaze your fellow passengers as you predict what will be served the rest of the days. I would be very interested to know that day so that I can adjust my website to show both the 11- and 10-day menus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
