Potstech Posted November 25, 2022 #2 Share Posted November 25, 2022 That is not the Love Boat Dream. It is something they are calling it by the same name. Tried it once never again. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare azbirdmom Posted November 25, 2022 #3 Share Posted November 25, 2022 Oh my goodness! I've missed these on the last couple of cruises because we dined elsewhere when they were on the menu but I would be very disappointed if those appeared. Wondering if there is a chocolate shortage on the ships? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare iamaqt2 Posted November 25, 2022 #4 Share Posted November 25, 2022 But are they still promoting them under the Chocolate Journeys on the menu? I'd be sad if that showed up at my table. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Host CJSKIDS Posted November 25, 2022 #6 Share Posted November 25, 2022 Those don’t look inviting at all and they used to be great. It’s hard having Norman Love here in town and seeing the actual amazing desserts they have and then trying them on the ships as they just aren’t the same thing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare startedwithamouse Posted November 25, 2022 Author #9 Share Posted November 25, 2022 If the taste was similar, just a different colour, it would be fine. But it's now buffet (lack of) quality. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And now the onboard versions are even worse. 😟 Since the restart have noticed Norman Love’s name missing from Chocolate Journey. On our Discovery cruises last Spring they were the same great Norman Love desserts. Apparently now that he is no longer associated with Princess their Chocolate Journey’s are quickly going downhill. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Lady Arwen Posted November 25, 2022 #12 Share Posted November 25, 2022 Oh, no……say it isn’t so! My sweet tooth is in mourning. At least I can still count on the luscious soufflés. Can’t I? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We did a couple Discovery cruises in the spring too, then Alaska, and it was the same quality Princess offered. Now it's shocking. But not surprising. We can still boo hoo. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
odyssyus Posted November 25, 2022 #15 Share Posted November 25, 2022 It's not just desserts. Princess food quality is on par with Golden Corral at best. Extensive use of steamers and cooked by armies of unqualified line cooks that only know "steam for 2 min then serve". Semolina passed off as grits. Grilled scallops pale, rubbery with no grill marks. Cherry Cobbler with no cherries. Puff pastry with no filling passed off as yorkshire pudding. I could go on sadly. This is dining room food as well as buffet. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare sunviking90 Posted November 25, 2022 #16 Share Posted November 25, 2022 (edited) We are just off the Emerald Princess and the Love Boat Dream and the Pistachio Dome were the same as they have always been. These pictures look like they have been given a new “interpretation” by the individual ship executive chef. Consistently would be nice.

Vic The Parrot Posted November 25, 2022 #18 Share Posted November 25, 2022 The pistachio dome looks like a pacifier ... 🤪 Are you still on board? If so, track down the restaurant manager and voice your concerns. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roobug Posted November 26, 2022 #19 Share Posted November 26, 2022 I had both these last week on my cruise and the dream looked close to that but much prettier and the pistachio dome looked nothing like that. They were both as good as always. I ordered the dream quite a few times on my trip and they were all great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
