So this is the Mardi Gras menu from Tiana's. I have been told this restaurant has a second menu. I don't have pics of menu.

Hey everybody, I know many of you have found your way over to the Facebook group but for anybody who doesn't 'do' FB, I wanted to reach out and ask if anyone is interested in volunteering to act as a host for the cabin crawl we plan to hold on board. It is an opportunity to see the different category of staterooms that there are on board. We are still in need of Cat R, S, T, 4, 6, 7 and 8. If you would like to take part, please post here or send me a private message. Thank you

I agree, the British Isles cruises are sky high. You could always make a friend in the UK and use them as a base to visit. Just sayin' ;-)

So cool about the coffee. I was hoping to see a coffee plantation or at least a coffee
bush in Columbia but it seems all the coffee plantations are too far away to be reasonable to visit. Old town Cartegena is different from the walled city that seems to be the standard shore excursion?

Ooh yea, I'm going to have a columbian coffee in Columbia. Silly I guess, but it's a long way from home in Canada.

Yes, you can buy it at the walled city place but it's really expensive.

Any other Canadians on this cruise? We're from the suburbs Vancouver, BC.

Not Canadian, but I visited Vancouver this summer and absolutely fell in love with the place.

As far as I know you get one alert. Then you don't get one again to you re visit the dis. That's what is going on with me.

 

[Lunarias]

Ok I got this one , I'm on the site about every day, but maybe I missed an alert awhile back when I got 5 at one time or something, I'll keep that in mind going forward. Thanks

For anyone here who is interested, it looks as though the abbreviations used for the rotational restaurants on the Wonder has changed. They are now as follows:

TR = Triton's
TP = Tiana's Place
AP = Animator's Palate

I was wondering about how they would do it. Makes sense. I thought they would go with a T Triton's as its one word at TP for Tianas Place since its two words. Well I was half right.

That was my thinking too Alan, I guess just for avoidance of confusion they went with the TR for Triton's.

As an aside, for those who have sailed on the Magic and are as big fans of the shawarma bar as we were, I had confirmation from somebody on board yesterday that the shawarma has been added to the Wonder also.

What is a Shawarma Bar?

 

[wilma-bride]

It is gyro and accompaniments - they have chicken and lamb.

We had it on the Magic earlier this year and it was really good. Makes a nice change from the usual burgers, nuggets, pizza offerings on deck 9

I am not a fan of Gyro's but I love lamb. I wonder if i can get just the Lamb

I just got plain chicken in a pitta last time. They do wraps also.

Good to know. I assume the regular fare is there too and this is just in addition to.

Yes, it is actually a separate window on the opposite side of the deck
