Rare jam19872016 Posted November 27, 2023 Author #129 Share Posted November 27, 2023 While I was here I hit the gym and got my walking in for the day. Getting a little hungry but gonna wander a little before I head to dinner since I'm not planning to do anything tonight. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare jam19872016 Posted November 28, 2023 Author #133 Share Posted November 28, 2023 Table ready at 751. I'm really excited for the new menus. First time I've not had the same menus on Carnival since 2016. It looks great, I hope it's as good as it looks. Magic has not been getting good food reviews. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare jam19872016 Posted November 28, 2023 Author #137 Share Posted November 28, 2023 Spring roll was AMAZING. Piping hot like it was fresh from the fryer less than a minute ago. Very nice crunch and the beef inside had a great flavor. The BBQ sauce also had a nice flavor. All around excellent dish! The poke was good. Everything tasted fresh and I enjoyed it. I just needed more. Very small portion. Would probably not get again but it did taste good.

Dan The Man but more importantly, Just June. Never seen her but she is Carnival royalty so I'm excited to check her out. Hey I think Just June is @MeganGC1983's fav. We haven't seen her yet. 15 minutes ago, jam19872016 said: They take your order on a phone now. Interesting. Doesn't seem to be speeding things up though.

Rare jam19872016 Posted November 28, 2023 Author #139 Share Posted November 28, 2023 The fish itself was obviously a cheaper fish. But the dish overall had a lot of great flavors going on that made for a great dish. I think what Emeril was tasked with doing here was creating low cost items that had great flavors and he knocked it out of the park with this one. If you are heat adverse, the sausage was spicy. You could eat around it but I think the flavor profile of this dish is dependent on each ingredient bringing something to it. The carbonara is not new. I'm not a fan of the onions that were added to the dish recently. It was good other than that and came out nice and hot. I wanted to try the new beef dish but was not confident I'm the quality to give it a try. So far I think next week I'll give it a try. Food's been good so far.

Rare jam19872016 Posted November 28, 2023 Author #140 Share Posted November 28, 2023 The dessert wasn't my favorite. It wasn't bad I just didn't care for the flavor. It was the sugar free dessert and it had a bitter taste. Not like fake sugar bitter, but a black coffee bitter. I drink my coffee with a ton of sugar. The texture was also too mushy which I understand is to be expected from a pot de creme but I wasn't a fan. The lady next to me left hers uneaten. Overall a very great meal. Off to a great start. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those spring rolls were in the buffet too if I wasn't stuffed I'd go get some. They are pushed back and you have to have them served to you but I would have no shame asking for 16 of them 😆 1 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Knights on the Beach Posted November 28, 2023 #143 Share Posted November 28, 2023 When I saw the spring rolls on the menus I was hoping you'd order them so I could check them out! lol The carbonara has always been a favorite of mine but I haven't had them since they started added onions. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare jam19872016 Posted November 28, 2023 Author #145 Share Posted November 28, 2023 He was good. I like the seating up on four. The only downside is not everyone is there to enjoy the music. The non stop public blowing of raspberries between the family near me accompanied by oohs and ahhs of what a good fart that was got old quick. It went on for quite a while. At America Rocks now. Been a while since I watched it, I don't remember liking it as much as epic rock but I'm gonna watch it again and see. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare jam19872016 Posted November 28, 2023 Author #147 Share Posted November 28, 2023 I'm trying not to turn into mr. get off my lawn but I'm sitting far off in the balcony with nothing but empty seats all around when a family of seven with five young kids sits down in front of me. I moved. Show was good. Not great, but I don't think any Playlist Production will ever be called great. At the piano bar now. Made it inside.
