I have only been on Carnival cruises and I was hoping someone who had been on both could tell me the major differences in dining. Thanks!

Is it like Carnival where you can have as much of something as you want? Say I'd like two of the appetizers? Also, I found menus on Allears, are they fairly up to date?
The reason the eggs have that creamy texture is they throw the entire egg into the machine that mixes them up. It is the ground up shell that gives them that texture. This is a frequent practice for places that make large quantities of scrambled eggs. I try and stick to the fried eggs, once I found out about the shells I could no longer eat the scrambled on the ship

Though I will say I give Carnival a slight edge over DCL dining room food, the rotational dining experience is awesome. And our family prefers Palo over the Carnival steakhouse.
I agree - I give the edge to Carnival when it comes to food. And DCL has nothing that compares to the warm chocolate melting cake.
One of the main differences I've seen between the two menus is that Carnival has a more substantial "everyday" menu to go along with the nightly choices so that you know there are good standard choices for appetizers, entrees and desserts that will be available every night.
On DCL, just like Carnival you can order as much of anything that you like. And don't forget you can order Mickey Bars for dessert (they are on the kids menu but anyone can order them).
I concur. Yes the melting cake is good. But everything else has been cut back quality-wise. We didn't even have lobster tail that I can remember on our last 7 night with 2 formals...
