Ask them what you should do in order for your diet to be accommodated in the MDR for the first night. Mention to them that you have special dietary needs and make sure it’s noted in their system. Stop by the main dining room on embarkation day and request to speak with the maître d’. Can’t hurt, right? Meet with the maître d’. I’ve never been convinced that doing this makes any difference at all, but I always do it anyway.
If you’re booking over the phone either direct with NCL or through a travel agent, be sure to mention it to them so they can include it on your reservation.
There’s a place to do this online, if you’re booking that way. When you make your cruise reservation, be sure to indicate that you have a diet restriction. So how does eating vegan in the MDR on NCL work exactly (this also applies to any other dietary restrictions – gluten free, sugar free, low salt, dairy free, etc.)? Contact NCL in advance. I’ve even cruised a number of times as a vegan, two of which were on NCL. But I’ve gone through stretches where I’ve been fully committed, going so far as to voluntarily eat fruit for dessert (back before the days of Chocolate Covered Katie). While this really ticks off certain vegans (and I get that, I really do – it’s just one of my many failures, second only to my formal night fashion choices as the most obvious and offensive), I consider myself a “weekday vegan” or an “aspirational vegan” now. The menu is among the best of any line, in my opinion.Įating Vegan In The MDR On Your NCL Cruise I love eating breakfast in the main dining room on NCL. Vegetarian Items On The NCL Breakfast Menu I didn’t include dessert menus as all desserts are vegetarian, but if you want to take a look at them, they can be found here. I have highlighted vegetarian choices with a carrot and provided photos of all the vegetarian items we ordered. The breakfast and lunch menus are pretty standard fleet-wide, but the dinner menus may vary some (these were from a 7-day sailing to Alaska on the Bliss in late summer 2019). As a vegan, this won’t be possible, but we’ll get to that later.īelow, find sample breakfast, lunch, and dinner menus. While your selection will be more limited, there are always vegetarian appetizers and entrees offered and items are clearly labeled as vegetarian. Eating Vegetarian In The Main Dining Room (MDR) On NCLĪs a vegetarian you’ll be able to order from the regular breakfast, lunch, and dinner menus in the main dining rooms on NCL. I’ll also provide you with some general tips for cruising as a vegetarian or vegan that apply across cruise lines. So instead, I’ll elaborate here on my experience, offer you my best tips for eating vegetarian or vegan on NCL, and provide you with sample menus and photos. In fact, I’ve spent so many days on NCL as a vegetarian (sometimes vegan – what can I say, I’m wishy-washy) I could dress up like a carrot and serve as the official spokesperson.īut because I suffer from claustrophobia and faulty temperature control causing me to overheat creating a fire hazard, the costume is out. “Oh good,” I thought, “NCL is vegetarian friendly!” And since then, I’ve cruised once on the Bliss, twice on the Breakaway, once on the Jewel, and twice on the Pearl (including a 21-day sailing).
