Rare Reds4life Posted October 20, 2022 #1 Share Posted October 20, 2022 I have seen the NY Deli and Pizza advertised on some of the other ships, but does Zuiderdam have pizza? Is it the hand-made crust, freshly baked variety? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare 0106 Posted October 20, 2022 #2 Share Posted October 20, 2022 There was pizza in the Lido every day at lunch but it is not like what is served at the pizzeria. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crystalspin Posted October 20, 2022 #3 Share Posted October 20, 2022 Also remember late night pizza at the forward (port) end of Lido. Freshly baked as we would wait for a 'new' flavor to come out. DNK about hand-made crust; did not see anyone throwing it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trk_koa Posted October 20, 2022 #4 Share Posted October 20, 2022 We were on Zuiderdam in April and there is pizza in the Lido, but it is not at all like what they have at New York Deli & Pizza on the other ships. The crust was thicker and doughy, not crispy, and had very little cheese. I didn’t like it, YMMV. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oakridger Posted October 20, 2022 #5 Share Posted October 20, 2022 (edited) I’m Here on Nieuw Amsterdam and I tried my first ever pizza at sea at the New York deli. After eyeballing other people’s pizza I asked for extra cheese. The pizza was better than expected and I will have it again, with extra cheese!!! ~Nancy Edited October 20, 2022 by oakridger 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although they did like Royal Caribbean's ok. MSC was top notch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KroozNut Posted October 21, 2022 #7 Share Posted October 21, 2022 Zuiderdam does not have the NY Pizza/Deli venue, which is where HAL's best pizza (in our opinion) comes from. But pizza is usually available in the Lido buffet area, and it's okay. Not even close to NY Pizza/Deli, but just okay. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Roger @Crew News was offering @Reds4life an alternative for her kids that would not enjoy pre-made pizza crust. Not suggesting that tacos were equivalent to pizza for adults such as yourself. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course food opinions are so inherently subjective, that one person's perception of 'quality' is another's perception of garbage. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t eat pizza but my father likes his 4:00 pizza fix and we will be in Zuiderdam next month. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stay far away from the pizza from HAL unless you enjoy eating a frozen pizza from the supermarket. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The problem with that is if it’s like it used to be it’s self serve. Speaking only for myself I wouldn’t touch it with a ten foot pole. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As I am used to what is "NY" pizza (in actually the closest you can come to Napolitano pizza without being in Italy), the HAL stuff does remind me of a frozen supermarket pizza.

I think most people know that it not ny pizza. Again, which frozen pizza tastes like that? To me just because you don’t like it you “think” that’s what frozen pizza taste like. I can assure you that as someone that actually eats frozen pizza on occasion it doesn’t taste like that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

New York Deli Pizza is delicious. Of course it's not like the pizza you would eat in Italy, and also not like the pizza you would have in NY (thank God), but still delicious. Pizzas from all the other Class ships are not the same level, and I also don't like them. But saying New York Deli Pizza is not a good pizza for a cruise line, it's not true. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks that is good to know! I think they will definitely try the pizza regardless but generally have been a bit spoiled by MSC with pizza, but RCCL pizza was ok as well. I was kinda hoping for the NY Deli kind but I am sure we will manage lol 🙂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Different cooks in the pizza kitchen, maybe? HAL's New York Deli and Pizza pizza product is superior to the pizza product that the other vessels pizza galleys can produce. MSC's pizza? As good as, if not better, than HAL's best pizza. Just my opinion--according to my taste buds. 😀 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
