I agree with the above RCCL does not serve food from the night before. Shanks of Lamb, tiger shrimp, steak, lobster, duck, filet mignon, pork chops, prime rib and roast beef, cooked rare to medium, are not on the buffets of any ship that I have cruised on. Soups are usually the basic soups on the buffet, nothing like I have seen at dinner. I have also got to say the salads are much better at dinner than in the buffet. Many of the desserts are pretty unique and you probably wouldn't see them on the buffet. I have never seen the rolls they serve on the carnival and the RCCL evening meals on the buffets. My recollection is that I had to wait to get the two favorite rolls I like at the dinner table.
Doing the buffets only means you will miss a lot of great foods and desserts. Buffets are good, but not great like the evening meals on all ships.
Once again Edd I just got off the Liberty and I did see leg of lamb, steak ( more than once including rib eyes), some GREAT roast beef and prime rib that was both rare, med rare and well done in the buffet. The soups were the same ones that were offered in the MDR. If you go to the desert bar on the opposite side you will find the bread selection ( same as the ones in the MDR)
