Hey cruisers, welcome to our Diamond Princess food slideshow. These meals were enjoyed onboard a cruise from Tokyo to Singapore, late 2018.
One thing we love about Princess cruises is that they serve lunch in the main dining room on embarkation day. When we boarded in Yokoyama, we started with a green Salad, and a Avocado and bay shrimp appetizer. Then, a Bacon burger by special request for our son,
Chicken cacciatore, and Broiled salmon with lemon dill sauce. For dessert, a light and tasty
apple tart Tatin.
Dinner night 1: savoy dining room
For our first night in the Savoy Dining room, we started with a Garden salad, Creamed artichoke bisque, and Rum infused pina colada soup, followed by Texas chili, seaBass with pineapple papaya salsa and Kids spaghetti that’s good enough for grown up tastes. For dessert, classic cheesecake and creme brulee.
On our second night, we started with
Artichoke dip, always available shrimp cocktail, fruit cocktail from the kids menu, and Chilled granny smith and cider soup.
Entrees included a Seafood skewer, and Surf and turf
From the dessert menu, we tried the Cheese plate with Brie and Gouda , Apple walnut spring rolls, and cookies and ice cream.
Night three started with green Salad, Chilled cucumber soup, Fruit kebabs with lavender honey cream, and smoked chicken breast, followed by Grilled salmon which is always available, and Tagliatelle with lobster sauce. We hardly had room for Carrot cake and the adorable Sugar free swan
We missed Night 4 in the dining room, so we’ll skip ahead to Night 5’s starters. A light Seafood soup and Chilled coconut soup were perfect preludes to tandoori shrimp, a perfect pasta Carbonara, and sole filets. And, a surprise birthday cake for our son.
The following evening, my husband enjoyed peach and Apricot chilled soup and a unique Crab and apple cocktail. For our main courses, crispy red snapper and surf and turf,
