HicksRA Posted July 20, 2022 #26 Share Posted July 20, 2022 To me, the burger was so plain, dry and tasteless, I was actually angry I wasted a meal at Chops on it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keep in mind bacon app not on lunch menu. Has anyone ever scored one for lunch? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sometimes served differently, we are used to Arugula and peppercorns with a balsamic dressing. It varies ship to ship, always goes down well, it is better on some ships than others.

I am aware it is marketed as slow-cooked Berkshire pork but it did not bring back fond childhood memories of my mother’s cooking! Thanks, but I will stick to Mushroom soup and Carpaccio in future.

Honestly, though, I'll eat pretty much anything with or called "bacon". 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silverspringcruiser Posted July 20, 2022 #34 Share Posted July 20, 2022 The mushroom soup on Enchantment was not cream of mushroom, more like mushroom of mushroom and my wife said it was the best mushroom soup she ever had. I had the goat cheese salad, which I also recommend. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zimmerman Posted July 20, 2022 #37 Share Posted July 20, 2022 Isn’t simplicity the key to a good carpaccio? seems like a heck of a lot going on, on that plate. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personal choice. I agree with you, but it’s nice to see the different offerings I posted two pictures of Carpaccio from the same ship, two different speciality restaurants and two completely different takes on, agreed a simple dish. And I have other photos of more variants from other RC ships. Variety is the spice of life Happy Days! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They will bring you as many starters and sides and desserts as you want. I purchased the UDP for my upcoming cruise. I was going to skip the apps and sides and just order surf and turf...steak and lobster...not sure if I can do that though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RoperDK Posted July 20, 2022 #45 Share Posted July 20, 2022 We are doing Chops lunch. Sauteed mushrooms aren't on the menu as a side. Do you think they would add them if we request it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No harm in asking 😊 Just remembered, recently on Explorer they were short on mushrooms 🍄 (Supply chain issues) I asked for a mushroom omelette with a side of mushrooms. I was politely informed I could only have in the omelette. I think there was one mushroom chopped into 20 pieces in that offering. Next it was no cucumber 🥒 for our Martinis 🍸🤣 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PompeySailor Posted July 20, 2022 #47 Share Posted July 20, 2022 From somewhere on internet The global mushroom market reached a value of $45.8 billion in 2020 and is expectedto reach more than $63 billion by 2027. But despite increased buzz, supply chain challenges make it increasingly difficult for mushroom farmers to ship enough product to turn a profit. While farmers of all kinds face COVID-related shortages, mushroom farmers have encountered special difficulties accessing essential inputs in time for rapid mushroom yield cycles. Maybe why there was a soup crisis 🍄 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
