BethGR Posted June 24, 2019 Report Share Posted June 24, 2019 So we are sailing on the Majesty of the Seas in a couple of weeks. Obviously one of the smaller ships and a lot fewer dining options than the larger class ships. But are the menus for the MDR and Windjammers pretty similar to the larger class ships? Or scaled down accordingly? Just curious! And any specific food recommendations for dining on the Majesty, let us know! Food items, snacks, etc. Thanks!

KathyC Posted June 24, 2019 Report Share Posted June 24, 2019 Fleetwide they pretty much use the same MDR menus, but not necessarily in the same order. WJ does vary by ship, even within the same class. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought the mdr was really good... The best I have had in a while. I also really liked the layout of the windjammer. We didn't do chefs table, but have done it in other ships and it is amazing! We tried to do the sushi class but that was a nightmare with the guy running it (you can check my majesty blog for that story...argh). I do know they also offer the galley brunch which we did not do. My daughters liked both Sorrento's and compass deli. In terms of specifics, the Mongolian grill for lunch on the sea day was amazing. I think they do it for dinner one night too. The entrees were all good in mdr that I tried. The desserts are usually kind of meh, but the birthday cake for royal on formal night was fun! Let me know if you have any questions! Tell the schooner bar staff (esp lukman and Edgar) that Jane misses her Oberon wine lol! Jane Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twangster Posted June 24, 2019 Report Share Posted June 24, 2019 Each ship has a food and beverage manager and a head chef. They will plan the menus for each cruise but all ships are supplied through a common supply chain that is centrally controlled by Royal HQ. The result is somewhat common entrees across the fleet but the night they appear on the menu and the combinations that make up one night's menu can vary by ship.

Jane I've noticed that the regular desserts in MDR and WJ are almost strikingly lacking in sweetness, which would account for the general feeling of "meh" with those; seems higher sugar is reserved for desserts in specialty venues or places like La Patisserie. I don't really mind overmuch since I'm hypoglycemic, and having less sugar in my desserts means I can have one or two with dinner and not go into a coma 30 minutes later. Unlike "The World", where I'll enjoy every last bite and scrape the plate, then wonder why I'm waking up in a lounger by the pool and looking like this: mom2mybugs, SpeedNoodles, KathyC and 1 other 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I find that with a lot of the cookies and stuff. Of course, I'm usually so over-sugared by all the drinks, the comparison may not be fair! !!!!!

Vlgg Posted June 30, 2019 Report Share Posted June 30, 2019 I love the Creme Brûlée and order it whenever I can. The cookies are good and so is the ice cream but most of the chocolate desserts are disappointing. We love chocolate! mom2mybugs 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes that was good but it wasn’t the world. Actually I was ready to just have another lemongrass cucumber martini. Best drink ever!

The World was my favorite dessert on Anthem last year. My sister ate 1 bite and declared it too sweet, whereas I was in heaven and said stand back and let the dessert queen take care of it LOL WAAAYTOOO 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
