Matt Posted July 30, 2020 Report Share Posted July 30, 2020 If you haven't seen, Royal Caribbean is revamping MDR menu. So which items should absolutely remain on the menu? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JLMoran Posted July 30, 2020 Report Share Posted July 30, 2020 Escargots!!!! MY GOD, DO NOT THINK ABOUT TOUCHING THE ESCARGOTS!!!!! EDIT: Unless there's actually a way to make them better. I mean, this is the head chef who actually made Sorrento's pizza fairly decent. Imagine what he can do with something that's already at the level of "OMG!"

CruisinForABruisin Posted July 30, 2020 Report Share Posted July 30, 2020 Nothing, burn it down For real tho, it would be cool to see what they came up with, with no limitations on what they could get rid of. They'd have a lot more ingredients to work with. cruisellama and SuzanneM 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope they leave the steak, shrimp cocktail, and the chicken caesar salad. You gotta have some "normal" things on the menu when you have kids and un-adventurous eaters. Though I do love all three of those things myself. :D cruisellama and jaredhamburg 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm pretty unimaginative when it comes to eating, so I asked our waiter to choose something for me, and he recommended it. I'm glad he did because it was awesome. He brought another out for me without even asking because I ate the first one so quickly. As a butcher for 30+ years, I've sold a ton of lamb shanks but never thought about eating one before this.

FManke Posted August 20, 2020 Report Share Posted August 20, 2020 Although there are a lot of things on the MDR menu I enjoy, one of the things I like most about it is the chance to try something I don't eat at home. I always try something I haven't or wouldn't normally eat at home. Whether it is an appetizer, salad or entrée. Being that the food is already paid for, I don't feel like it's a waste of money to try something I might not like.
