weluvafrica Posted August 25, 2019 #1 Share Posted August 25, 2019 Hi could any one tell me if they ever had lunch in La Mer, they say they offer it, but I’ve seen no reviews good or bad. Also any one try Winemakers special Dinner. Thank you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you Whenever I’m on a Royal-class ship I enjoy the great Winemakers Dinner ($40) in a Wine Cellar in one of the anytime dining rooms. Like the Chef‘s Table ($115 for the Lumiere version on the Royal-class ships) participation (12) is very limited so call the DINE line ASAP if interested. It’s one of my favorite Princess dining experiences with the Ultimate Balcony Dinner being the other one.

weluvafrica Posted August 25, 2019 Author #3 Share Posted August 25, 2019 Is this available on the majestic. I appreciate your quick reply, I’ll book as soon as I get on, going to Aus!New Zealand in Oct. I guess you don’t know about Le Mer. won’t know until I get on the ship.

Steelers36 Posted August 25, 2019 #4 Share Posted August 25, 2019 I am also a fan of the WM Dinner. It is offered on the Majestic. We were on her in Feb, but I cancelled the res as my wife did not want to go and I didn't want to go alone. As for La Mer, IDK about lunch (suspect not as it is a specialty restaurant for dinner), but we did try it on a 2-for-1 coupon deal and we were not impressed. Limited menu choices and as I recall a bit odd some of them for us. Not very inspiring and not sure if I would try it again. I would want to study the menu carefully first and hope to have a 2-for-1. Even though $25, I'd rather spend $29 and go to CG. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
partybarbie Posted August 25, 2019 #5 Share Posted August 25, 2019 Food porn from the Wine Maker's dinner aboard the Royal. Absolutely loved it and would do it again. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Colorado Coasty Posted August 26, 2019 #6 Share Posted August 26, 2019 We have done it on both the Royal and Regal. I think it's as good as Chef's Table. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Friends didn’t like the menu nor the location next to the walking area at the top of the Piazza which can be noisy. The price I’m currently seeing for the Sky is $35 but the menu shows $29 which as I recall is a newer menu. We like to try new food but not finding enough on the menu for us. If the information on their current dining list is accurate, La Mer shows open for a $12 lunch.

I do not recall seeing a lunch promotion for La Mer on Majestic, but I cannot say for certain they did not. So, they may well have. Neither did we go by there at breakfast time. I realize the default currency for Princess is USD, but wonder if that chart is quoting AUD since that is the market it is in? All of the Specialty Restaurants on our NZ cruise were priced in AUD of course. Crown Grill was forty-something as I recall instead of $29. (I just looked for my final folio with charges and don't seem to have it). I am not not sure of what we paid, but even though it was 2-for-1, I don't recall it being based on $35 US. But I could be wrong. I am just thinking we would not have tried it that way (or perhaps we did since 50% off???). After checking the PDF link closely, it seems unlikely the price for La Mer is in AUD. ETA - La Mer was most probably not based on $25 USD. I think I am mixed up with Sabi's Trattoria which is/was still $25. Edited August 26, 2019 by steelers36 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
