Menus on longer cruises

[vacationlover_mn]

Just curious, for those of you have done an 8+ night cruise since they started the new menu, do they have additional theme nights?

 

I’m all booked if through 2025, so this is purely a just “curiosity” question 🙂

Nope, just repeat some of the same ones. These were on an 8 night and 10 night.

There were some theme nights on our 12-nighter in January that I'm not seeing on our upcoming 9-nighter, so I think they may have some menus that only get used on the longer cruises. 

 

I'm a little disappointed! I was looking forward to the Sticky Toffee Pudding!

Look in the app at one of the longer Anthem sailings this summer - that will give you an idea of what's available each night.

When they first introduced the new menu, some menus were repeated during longer cruises. But now they have at least 12-13 different menus so you probably won't see any repeats.

First time experience for me with the new menus was an 11-nighter.  While the menus were different every night, some of the choices were repeats from another menu.

 

Will be on a 15-nighter in October, so it will be interesting to see how the menus vary.

This was from cruises in March and May. Our menus were repeated.

Someone recently posted from a 15 night Panama Canal cruise that had a different menu for each night, so the menus do exist. How or whether a ship uses all of those menus is a different matter.

Good as Cruises last 10yrs for 10-16niters I was on always a Different Menu each nite

We were on a 17N TA in May and we had a different menu each day.

I have a 14 night cruise coming up in a couple of months and have been working on the menu question for awhile.  The same ship I will be on just recently had a 12 night cruise and had different menus for each night.  Someone mentioned somewhere that there may be as many as 20 menus available.  Checking around, I found a certain Royal Caribbean Blog website had most of the known menus available for download.  I found two more this morning on another (unnamed) website group page posting.

 

The menus that I am aware of (so far) are:

*Welcome Aboard  (usually first night)
*A Taste of France  (usually first formal night)
*A Taste of the Caribbean
*A Taste of the USA
*A Taste of Mexico
*A Taste of Italy
*A Taste of the Mediterranean
*A Taste of Royal History
*A Taste of Asia
*A Taste of the UK / British
*Welcome to Royal Night  (usually second formal night)
*Welcome to Bon Voyage  (usually last night)

Boarding for the WC in December.  Will be very interesting the menu selections on that one.  😉 

 

In a perfect world, it would be nice if they featured the country they visit for some local flavor.   Not sure if they will do that.

Here is a copy of A Taste of Royal History menu that I recently downloaded from a RCCL Food Chronicles group (courtesy of Nick Vitani).
