We have not tried Canaletto yet but the menus, old and new, look like something we would enjoy. Canaletto on the NS still has the same menu and same nightly special as before. We both had the shrimp and it was yummy. 🙂 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From what I'm seeing we will like either menu, so we'll see what we get in May. Edited March 18, 2023 by Sea42 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NCTribeFan Posted March 18, 2023 #128 Share Posted March 18, 2023 Hope Rotterdam has the same menu in a couple of weeks. I really want that Saturday night shrimp! But if it doesn't, I'll find something else yummy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just got off Nieuw Statendam today and asked the manager about the new menu. She insisted fleetwide all ships have the same (old) menu. I just smiled and thanked her, knowing she didn't have a clue that Rotterdam has a new menu. We ate from the old menu and were charged $19 plus service charge, minus mariner discount. Also - at Grand Dutch Cafe the larger chocolate chip cookies were the size of anything you'd see on the Lido. Sue/WDW1972 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sue/WDW1972 We boarded NS yesterday and spoke to a server in Canaletto this morning who said they were just informed that the new menu is in the works but weren't told a roll out date yet but she said the corporate chef is now aboard this ship training the staff on how to prepare the new dishes. So it is coming soon to a Canaletto near you too! But for now the Rotterdam is the only ship in the fleet with the new menu. 2 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sad to see the chocolate chip cookies shrinkage. I'm in my "early discovery" process of HAL. I'm a big chocolate chip cookie fan - assuming that it's something special. Are the cookies there (aside from the size) something not to miss (different than in the buffet)? Do they charge for them? Also - do they make milkshakes there (and are those included with a beverage package)? 🙂 THANKS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're more like a real home backed chocolate chip cookie vs mass produced buffet line cookie. Not sure about milkshakes - I never saw anyone at Grand Dutch Cafe with a milkshake. The food is complimentary. Sue 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Definitely made with delicious butter and chocolate chips. Each cookie would last me two days. If they are now smaller, I might consume one or more per day. The almond cookies, with a bit of almond butter filling, are another of my favorites for daily consumption. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Real NHDOC Posted March 19, 2023 #135 Share Posted March 19, 2023 I can personally attest to the fact that the big chocolate chip cookies still exist at the Dutch Cafe on the Nieuw Statendam. Just had one with a latte. Delicious! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The buffet cookies all look and taste like they're made from frozen dough, which they probably are. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
travellgirl Posted March 19, 2023 #137 Share Posted March 19, 2023 We are on the Rotterdam now, having embarked on March 8th we have eaten twice in Canaletto and going back tonight the maitre d told us the other night there would still be a special every night. We’ll see tonight if it is different from last time the osso bucco is on the menu every night. I did hear two of the waiters mentioning that some passengers were upset there is not a soup on the menu any longer 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
