NSnJW Posted December 19, 2023 #1 Share Posted December 19, 2023 I just returned from my most recent cruise on the Sunshine I want to air a few gripes and one attaboy. Small gripe, they quit supplying Bee Sting Honey Habanero sauce at the sauce table for the Blue Iguana. Now that I know, I'll bring my own. Sometimes they bake the Carnival Melting Chocolate Cake in a shallow bowl which makes it solid all the way through. This made me leary of ordering what was one of my favorite Carnival desserts. Now my biggest gripe, no mushrooms at the Omelette Stations. Previously my breakfasts were split between burritos and omelettes but that is ruined for me now. My attaboy is for the Emeril additions to the MDR menu. Some of them are very good and at least they are different. I really liked the catfish. I also had an Oriental salad that was great. Not world shaking gripes but Carnival's food choices are a big part of why I cruise on Carnival. Your mileage may vary. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mz-s Posted December 19, 2023 #2 Share Posted December 19, 2023 I missed the new MDR menus by like two weeks on my most recent cruise (on Magic). I really wanted to try them. People really seem to like them! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NSnJW Posted December 20, 2023 Author #3 Share Posted December 20, 2023 I did find more things I liked in the MDR since the menu change. There was only one night that we didn't see enough that we like in the MDR and went to the Deli and buffet instead. Not bad out of 10 nights. For myself, between the chicken that is always on the menu and banana split for dessert, I can always eat in the MDR if I really want to, But my cruise buddy didn't find any inspiration that night either. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jiggs Posted December 25, 2023 #9 Share Posted December 25, 2023 I"m sure this is covered somewhere 'round here but is the new menu fleet wide now, and if not is there a list of ships that have transitioned? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They far exceeded my expectations. Highly recommend them. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gracie65 Posted July 16 #14 Share Posted July 16 Does anyone have a link to a sample of the 5 night cruise menu's for the main dining room? Trying to decide which night to do a speciality option. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
