Carnival Cruise Line announced it would roll out new dinner
menus for dining rooms in a phased approach across the fleet following a successful
pilot on Carnival Dream.
The expanded menu options will first be available on Carnival
Conquest before being added to Carnivals other vessels in the coming over the
next year. Carnival Horizon will make the changes next month, followed by Carnival
Sunrise, Carnival Vista, Carnival Radiance and Mardi Gras.
Each month, the new menu items will be introduced aboard
several ships based in Carnivals U.S. homeports into early 2024. Carnivals
Australia-based ships will implement the new menu items later next year.
The new menus bring more variety to its dining room
offerings, with dozens of dishes curated by Chief Culinary Officer Emeril
Lagasse and Carnival chefs, with many new menu items being listed as personally
recommended Emeril Selects.?
Food is an ever-evolving art, so our approach to the dining
room offerings is to infuse a selection of new dishes, feature more
international flavors and complement the Carnival classics our guests love, Lagasse
said.
Working with our skilled team of Carnival chefs, we
recently tested and selected more than 60 new dishes to mix into the dining
room rotation, Lagasse continued. Im pleased that these dishes were very
well received by our guests on Carnival Dream, so we are very excited to roll
them out to the Carnival fleet.
Carnival provided a sampling of items guests will find on
the newly enhanced menus:
Hawaiian Shrimp Poke: a flavorful starter that combines
avocado, edamame, rice, creamy spicy sauce, togarashi chili and wakame.
Roasted Duck Rolls: a delicious appetizer made with rice
paper and scallions and served with sweet garlic sauce.
Pappardelle with Braised Lamb: an Italian-inspired first
course featuring tomato cream sauce, garlic and parsley.
Grilled Swordfish: a tasty seafood entre thats served
with smashed fingerling potatoes, fava beans and cherry tomato salad in a
citrus saffron sauce.
Cornish Game Hen: an elegant entre served with roasted
root vegetable and pan gravy.
Salad Entrees: the Ultimate Cobb Salad, the Asian
Chopped Salad with Chicken, and the Beefsteak Salad.
Desserts: the Dutch Double Chocolate Pave, a rich chocolate
cake, along with a refreshing Banana Cream Pie.
