[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Re: food on cruise ships -

I’ve cruised multiple lines and the food is largely the same.

[b]The upcharge restaurants aren’t markedly different[/b]—except for the sushi.

Pro tip: generally speaking, don’t order chicken or pasta. Go for the specials—particularly the vegetarian or Indian (or other ethnic) option. Why? The chefs are typically from countries where the more ethnic meals are from, and they tend to have better seasoning.

Seafood is hit or miss. I’ve had some very good seafood on cruises.

But yes, chicken and pasta are bland. [b]Steak is hard to screw up. [/b]

Better cruise lines have interesting ethnic options in their buffet. Celebrity offers an Asian breakfast (among other options) as an example. [/quote]

Tell me your palate is so unsophisticated that you have no business commenting on this thread without telling me ... [/quote]

So which cruise lines have you eaten in the MDR and the upcharge restaurants?

And which ones were markedly different?

Icymi: cruise ships prepare food for the masses. It’s all basically the same. Some lines have better menu options, but none of it is amazing—but most is decent.

FTR, I’m from an upper crust background and I have friends who are chefs. I know good food…and you just don’t find it on a ship. But you can find decent options. Like I said: the vegetarian and Indian options are usually good along with some fish dishes. Why? The chefs are from countries where that’s their jam. [/quote]
