Pics of DCL Food Round 2

[o&smom]

Thanks for this. At least I am prepared for bones in the chicken. DCL is probably the only place I've come across where "chicken breast" doesn't mean boneless. :/

I know! It is like chicken breast plus! But usually very yummy and moist. Chicken is not a favorite of mine ever since I was pregnant with my son now 13. That being said, I usually have it at least once on our cruise and have not been disappointed. That, and the fact that I often eat two entres.

I think I just figured it out. Those pictures depict what I'm accustomed to being called a "quarter chicken" which I expect to have bones.

Special fish & chips in honor of our time in England.

Magic of Fantasy? Royal Court is on the Fantasy.

For what it's worth, I was on the Fantasy and everything thing that I ordered that was chicken did not have bones.

That chicken breast is being served "airline style" which means the larger wing bone is kept intact. It doesn't have as many bones as a "quarter chicken" like you might get at KFC or something. The ribs/backbone are not attached. This style of chicken is common in banquet settings for three reasons:

1. The chicken stays more moist during cooking.
2. It is easier to handle and the breast is less likely to break during cooking/plating.
3. It is faster than removing all the bones (prep wise) while leaving something behind that allows you to clearly tell it is chicken, rather than fish or pork.

It is very easy to simply cut the chicken breast off that little bone. It's not as labor intensive as picking the meat off a full bone in breast.

Always start our cruise with some peel and eat shrimp in Cabanas.

Are the DCL chicken tenders comparable to those at WDW?? My kids Love the WDW chicken tenders and measure every other chicken tender on the "Disney" scale with "Disney chicken" being at the top of the list!! I can't wait to try this food in February on our first cruise! !

You know, I've never tried the ones at WDW. But the ones onboard are my go-to mid afternoon snack. Have been for years.

I can't remembers WDW either but the ones on the ship are so awesome!

Ginger-teryaki dusted Angus Beef Tenderloin with wasabi mashed potatoes, bok choy and a tamarind barbecue reduction - one of my favorites. I also still miss the rock shrimp savory cheesecake - I know, silly me!

Sadly (maybe?), this was my son's favorite meal on the boat. He's mentioned them a million times since our last cruise and he's looking forward to having them again in October.

Our son had the chicken tenders (from the kid's menu in the MDRs) for an appetizer every night.

I don't have a picture but the lobster we had on the Wonder December 2015 was the best I have ever had.

Palo's gluten-free dessert on the Wonder. So pretty!! Note that the width of the glass rim is as wide as the inner rim of the plate - this thing was enormous!

That looks very good.
