Never seen a menu for Express Dinner before.  How does that relate to the regular menu?

Thanks very useful!

EXPRESS Dinner ???

Must tell you I really didn't even notice that Title.

That was a picture of the Menu from up on the Front Porch, it would have been some of the same items served in the Main Dining Room but not everything from the MDR. That was Day2 and the last time they served up there

Thanks, that would explain it.  I don't recall there being a menu for the Front Porch when we cruised but I'm not sure we ever had dinner there either.

For our cruise, the Express Menu was the list of dishes available from the buffet line in the Main Dining Room. You could get up at breakfast and lunch and serve yourself if you didn’t want to order from your server. Front Porch May have been the same, but we didn’t use it much.

These were helpful in managing our expectations. One thing we are on late dining (by choice). We knew our shows would be before dinner and expected something like 1900. We see we need to be changed by 1815 😱😱. Is that normal or just something happening at the moment?

Thanks for posting the menus. Are people actually being served in the dining room on your cruise?  Some people have posted they only get buffet food.

How is the cruise co pared to the last one?

Those are the menus from the last cruiseAmerican Queen  MEM - NOLA Sept 27-Oct4

Ahhhhh….forgot your dates.  Again, I’ll ask was the food as bad as what was posted?  Someone said they only served buffets. What was your take?  I also read some negative things on social media.
