Sabor had great chips, salsa, guac & margaritas which I now get from the Copper & Kettle pub. We don't care much for El Loco Fresh. Hooked is good also, they have fantastic fish sticks which melt in your mouth, spicy cheddar biscuits and good Boston Cream pie (cake). Sorry. Sabor was one and done. Reminded us of Taco Bell. Margaritas were really bad 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
voyager70 Posted September 27, 2020 #27 Share Posted September 27, 2020 I love the rosemary lamb shanks. We ordered takeout lamb shanks from one of our favorite local restaurants Friday night. They were delicious, but not quite the same eating them at home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lovescats5 Posted September 27, 2020 #28 Share Posted September 27, 2020 Truffle Tagliatelle from Jamies, any dessert from any restaurant, and I agree with ourusualbeach, any meal I do not have to cook or clean up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only things great at Chops are the Shrimp Cocktail (no rocket science) and I had already amazing tuna tartare, but this can be also a huge disapointment. But the steaks, sauces and sides nothing special. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steaks, red meat, IMO, tastes much better when cooked properly on open flame. I do see a few people eat their steaks medium well, and well done which in their case, I don’t think it matters how it’s cooked. That too is my opinion.

maria1122 Posted September 28, 2020 #38 Share Posted September 28, 2020 Artichoke soup in CK. garlic soup in windjammer, red wine sorbet in CK. come to think about it as long as I don’t have to shop for it, cook it or clean up after it, it’s all good 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

M8 Anything more than medium rare is a hockey puck. My wife, on the rare occasion she orders steak, asks for it well done. I can't even look at it... Chops steaks are "meh" but for a red meat eater like myself they are the about as good as you can expect at sea. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Tree_skier Posted September 28, 2020 #44 Share Posted September 28, 2020 I prefer thick and crispy but in the absence of that massive quantities will suffice. I've been doing low carb for two months now. I have discovered that bacon makes everything better. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is a taco joint here in town that is very popular for putting the orange cheese powder on top of their tacos. Great stuff! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree. I can grill a great filet at home with a special marinade that I make. I have not had a bad steak on any of Royal's ships, as long as it is salt and peppered and cooking evenly at medium rare, I'm good.

They like that tissue paper thin greasy bacon on ship. I wish they had thick cut also or at least something in between. I don't much care for ship bacon and I do love bacon.

HBE4 Posted September 28, 2020 #50 Share Posted September 28, 2020 (edited) While I think the food on Royal is overall pretty good, I'm not sure I'm missing anything. Maybe the Kummelweck sandwiches and salads from Park Cafe and cold soups from MDR. I guess I'm blessed to live in an area with great food....and a family of great cooks. I, on the other had, can burn water. Although I do miss the convenience of grabbing a few slices of the new-and-improved Sorreto's pizza when heading back to the cabin after closing down the casino. EDIT to add: Like others, I do miss the unlimited amounts of bacon. I never met a slice of bacon I didn't like. Thin and greasy or thick and chewy.....all yummy to me.
