loudbmw Posted September 6, 2022 #2 Share Posted September 6, 2022 Depending on the ship, sometimes they designate one waiter to be a “runner” to handle special requests in Coastal Kitchen. It’s helpful to give the host or manager a heads up the day before of a special request. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
molly361 Posted September 6, 2022 #3 Share Posted September 6, 2022 I was told no on the Harmony in May but they blamed it on covid Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruisegirl1 Posted September 6, 2022 #4 Share Posted September 6, 2022 Pre Covid - We told the staff we would be at the MDR the next night as we wanted the Chicken Parm. They offered to get it for us for CK. Nice gesture but they obviously picked up the food hours prior to our meal. Couldn't even cut the chicken and the pasta was completely dried out, it cracked. We did not complain because they did us a favor and are SO busy. Now, on the evenings that we like the a MDR menu, we simply dine there that evening. We have never asked since.

molly361 Posted September 6, 2022 #5 Share Posted September 6, 2022 I forgot about another CK food story. It was pre COVID but one time we asked if we could get the mushroom soup from Chops or the MDR. No problem. Waited quite a while and finally it arrived but it was NOT the thick creamy mushroom soup from Chops or MDR, it was some kind of broth 😇 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
poocher Posted September 6, 2022 #6 Share Posted September 6, 2022 I can’t imagine it would be easy on Harmony. Deck 17 all the way down to the MDR kitchen on 5-4-3? That’s quite a trek. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jerseygirl1416 Posted September 6, 2022 #8 Share Posted September 6, 2022 Why even ask? If you want food in the MDR then go eat there. Some people are high maintenance! 6 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
poocher Posted September 6, 2022 #9 Share Posted September 6, 2022 We had 2 nights where some wanted CK menu & some MDR. We split up for dinner those nights, 2 at CK & 2 at MDR. Worked fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, but you are taking CK staff (waiter or kitchen staff) out of the dining room, impacting others in the CK. Very selfish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

While I believe the crew works incredibly hard, what distinguishes a company is service. I don’t see a problem. They can always say they can’t.

Rare DaKahuna Posted September 7, 2022 #14 Share Posted September 7, 2022 We have been on a Quantum B2B the last two weeks. One of the things that my wife. and I both really like is rice. We asked and have received rice, either steamed or fried, with every meal that we have requested it since thing. While we have not even considered asking for items from the MDR, we have been told that if there was something in the Windjammer that we wanted, they would be happy to accomodate.
