Lido HAL ice cream

[fann1sh]

I just posted on my roll call that my favourite flavour is cinnamon.   But, it's been two years since my last Alaska cruise! 

 

Has anyone met it aboard recently? 

 

Also...is liqueur still offered as a topping, or is that gone in cutbacks? 

 

For that matter, is there still bread pudding every lunch?

The cinnamon ice cream was not offered on our cruises 2 and 3 years ago.

 

Bread pudding on the ships we were on was kept behind the ice cream counter -- you had to ask for it.

 

No liquors offered on our last few cruises for the ice cream.  Could be because too many people were taking glasses and making themselves a cocktail.

Liqueur was gone on our last two cruises, pretty sure gone completely.  I have never had the cinnamon ice cream.  I stay away from the other desserts and try to get one scoop of their special of the day ice cream everyday.  I did notice the bread pudding on occasion I forget it it was there everyday.  Their fruit crisps are way down, that is a cutback, they use to have a fruit crisp everyday but not anymore.

Bread pudding was available at lunch and dinner every day at the corner bread station, right up front, with or without the sauce, on the Konigsdam last week.  😁

I enjoyed the Bread Pudding w/the sauce in the Lido at lunch on the Nieuw Statendam on our cruise that ended 1/20....Delicious as always!

I was on Maasdam last fall, and Zaandam this winter, both had bread pudding/vanilla sauce, and fruit crisps every day during the later part of lunch.

Ice cream (IMHO PLEASE!) on HAL has been terrible. Low butterfat content (what makes it taste good), not a large variety of flavors.

Bread pudding on my last cruise (NS 12/18) very different than in the past. Not very good any more....

FWIW, I was not impressed with the bread pudding or the ice cream on the NA March 2018.  (Disclosure:  My Ben & Jerry's and Häagen Dazs addiction might...probably... influence on my opinion). Hubby never complained about the ice cream at the Lido 10 pm every night. LOL
