Rare Turtles06 Posted October 28, 2022 #1 Share Posted October 28, 2022 For guests not in the Haven, what are the options for lunch on embarkation day besides the buffet? Taste or Savor? The Local? Thanks for any info! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trivimp Posted October 28, 2022 #2 Share Posted October 28, 2022 They'll try to steer you to the buffet, but one of the MDRs will be open; just ask which one. The Local will also be open, but it's always been quite crowded in my experience. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(I always resist being steered to the buffet, hence my question. 😂) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
detroitlions Posted October 28, 2022 #4 Share Posted October 28, 2022 Always curious why they do this. The folks that do not want to eat in the Buffet will not weather they do this or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I always book the Cagney's for dinner the first night if I am not in the Haven. The more important question is where to get a nice drink for the sail-a-way, LOL. The one thing I can promise you. You will never go hungry on a cruise especially NCL. Cruise well and enjoy every moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The two MDR's they'd use (Taste and Savor) are in the same place on the ship, one on either side of the ship. Just need to go to that location and see which one has people sitting in it. Sometimes it'll be both if they're busy enough. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Taste or Savor? The Local? The Local and the buffet are the two options immediately available if you're among the first to board. Taste and Savor open a bit later (noonish depending on itinerary) and are your better options. Personally, on my last cruise, I'd skipped breakfast and was ready to gnaw my arm off, so I went to The Local. It was edible. 3 hours ago, ChiefMateJRK said: Nobody has ever tried to steer me anywhere for lunch. Who are "they?" The Illuminati, of course!

I must have missed them, and I'm fairly certain that you were with my on the Joy two weeks ago. 😎 There were two gangways, so you must have entered on the one I didn't. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
