We've been lucky and have gotten most of the ships we sailed on. A few ships didn't have them so we had to get a medallion type ornament. The one new problem is that they switched vendors since Covid and the some of our models are smaller then their sister. ie I've got an Odyssey ofS that smaller then my Quantum ofS , go fig.

Where's your bar located? Are you open for business? I'd like to come and partake.

bought a lunch, thanks yes the menu is ok, but willing to try it one more time. for $13.99 + tip its a good take. \ bought it for embarkation day, so don't have to fight the WJ

Sometimes is posted on the bar.

I think it could also be left overs from the night before sweet treats from the (D)/Crown Lounge (stale)

Pattycruise - Have you tried 150 Central? I find that a step above. The Beef tenderloin for 2 is a great take.

They didn't do it on the TA back in August. We asked if that could be done, (because there weren't many Pins but a lot of D & D+. The concierge said Miami (home office) wouldn't allow it. Though back in the Spring on the Radiance repo they did. I wish they'd leave it up to the concierges to make the decision, because they would know how many D, D+, & P are on board that particular sailing. That's the one nice thing about the Radiance class that the DLounge can connect to the Viking Crown lounge. not so sure about the other classes.

Should Royal offer scooter races - one lap around the running track. Fastest scooter gets a sign saying 'I'm the fastest'

There will be a lot of us looking for this answer

YES!! Last year I enjoyed eating some of the options that were on the Vegan menu.

Thanks for the info. Yes, I understand about different pallets. I knew that they had dropped some items (as in all the restaurants) just wanted to get peoples' likes and dislikes. so I can have some idea of what to order.

Going to do a B2B on Mariner in a month. Would like opinions on what to try/order or not at Jamies.

The cruise docs usually show up 30 days prior to sailing. Since there are 31 days in October, start looking for them tomorrow Oct. 6

Right now I've 7 up coming cruises on Royal.

Yes, on the sides at Chops. Mostly all starch base. I do like hibachi for the entertainment. Yes, Gionvannis' Table is still on Allure (not KITCHEN), I think the steak is better then Chops. You forgot 150 Central Park that would be my choice: bread/roll(out of this world), Beef Tenderloin for 2-yes, & of course the Fried Cheese Cake, I also like the Pumpkin soup - presentation .

My take on the new MDR menus. Just recently finish a TA from Amsterdam to Bayonne on JotS. 1st night Welcome Aboard – Prime Rib was good ; very little fat and no gristle 2nd night – A taste of France – didn’t eat in the MDR. Did GT got the Filet. 3rd night – Beyond the Sea – NE Clam Chowder just more like NE Clam Broth, not thick; Lamb shank fell off the bone, good; Berry Cobler wasn’t very warm. 4th night – A Taste of Asia – didn’t eat in the MDR. Did GT got the Filet. 5th night – A Taste of History – Bay Scallops was good; Spinach Pie too soupy; Horseradish Crusted Salmon -ok (different); Pecan pie – ok. 6th night – A Taste of Mexico – Burrito was good; Beef was ok , though thinly sliced it was still chewy; Apple cobbler was good. 7th night – A Taste of the Caribbean – didn’t eat in the MDR 8th night - Italian - don’t remember 9th night – British night - don’t remember 10th night - Mediterranean – don’t remember 11th night – Beyond the Sea – Vegan Rice Paper rolls, good; special order Grilled Chicken w/ Tomato Risotto Shrimp – good; fish platter ok 12th night – Taste of the Classics – Onion Tart – ok; French Onion soup – I’ve had better (too much bread, very little onion) Went to Chops for lunch – Burger was good, Salmon was ok, Shrimp Cocktail is always good. 13th night – International – didn’t eat in the MDR. Did GT got the Shrimp w/the Mushroom risotto 14th night – Beyond the Sea – (same theme night but different menu) Shrimp & Salmon os 15th night - Beyond the Sea – (same theme night but different menu) Royal Shrimp salad – ok; Chicken Schnitzel good , chicken was moist’ Cocoanut cake – fine. 16th night – Royal night – they did offer the Lobster tail, mine was small (4 bits, I saw others with a bit larger ones). 17th night – Bon Voyage - Don’t remember.

Try and get different colored cups so you can tell who belongs to which cups or bring some kind of rubber band to put on the cup. As ScottD mentioned see about getting them at the table as they would have a lot o cups to choose from and maybe able to find different colors/styles.

Usually there is a White night, possibility 70's

The good old English language and interpretations.

Yes, its a lot of food. I couldn't have a doggie bag to take the rest back to the cabin. I think it probably has to do that you made it not a employee of the restaurant. Food safety.

Did you change your photo? Nice

I was lucky. the first time I played (it was also my bday. Was able to get the 'cover all' won a free cruise. though there were a lot of restrictions. Only could book a month out, interior cabin, & and of course being a month out and had to fly - air fare wasn't cheap. Haven't since. That was almost 20 year ago

Never though of that. Do it for my coolers all the time.

You missed the MDR

Well, I guess my cruising days are over.
