jdecker2000 Posted July 24, 2004 #1 Share Posted July 24, 2004 I am wondering about the menus on the MSE (Princess) - I went to the Alaska RR web site to look at theirs, just from curiosity...Are they the same for the Princess cars or does Princess have their own food service? Anyone out there that can fill me in? I heard the prices were really high, and the menus I looked at were not low-priced by any means but did not seem as bad as say the amusement parks where a $1 items costs $5 or more...so I was pleasantly surprised I guess... Thanks in advance for any info! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RhondaPerr Posted July 30, 2004 #2 Share Posted July 30, 2004 I can't help you with the prices because our meals on the train were included as part of our group perks...The food both breakfast and especially dinner was outstanding. It is not the same menu as the Alaskan RR... They had a Prime rib that melted in your mouth...appetizers, soups etc...worth a splurge! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jdecker2000 Posted July 30, 2004 Author #3 Share Posted July 30, 2004 :) Good to at least know that it is a different menu. I am really looking forward to this trip, and don't know if I have replied to your posts since your trip but I have enjoyed reading them! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

me@sea Posted July 31, 2004 #5 Share Posted July 31, 2004 I was on the Midnight Sun Express this past week - the food is delicious! Just keep in mind that you are on a train. Pouring syrup on my pancakes was interesting. Even better when you tried to eat! I found a menu which is identical to the one I ordered off of. From the dinner menu, I had the sockeye salmon - another yummy item! Lisa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrsbojamp Posted August 1, 2004 #6 Share Posted August 1, 2004 We just got back from a Princess cruise tour and totally enjoyed the train. We had lunch one day and dinner the next. I have to say that lunch was somewhat disappointing, but dinner was fabulous. I had prime rib. I can't remember everything that was on the menu, but they have a good variety with several fish dishes, as I recall. The scenery is so spectacular however, that the meals take a back seat. We even saw two moose (mooses?) fairly close to Fairbanks. Hope you have a great trip! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IrishLassie Posted August 2, 2004 #7 Share Posted August 2, 2004 Thanks so much for the menu from the train! We leave on 8/14 and I can hardly wait! At least now we know what to expect for meals on the train. Thanks again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
