    The Cafe Promenade is located right on the Royal Promenade (Deck 5). The cafe serves sandwiches, pizza, desserts, cookies and coffee all included in your package. We have stopped by here for some pizza and some snacks. The service here is very good and always friendly. You can eat in the cafe or take your food to your room.

    The pepperoni pizza is a favorite of ours. I loved the Mudslide Cookie which was incredibly good. Liz found some English Toffee cookies which are a favorite of hers and very close to the ones she makes at home. We like to take our snacks back to the room and enjoy them on the balcony.

    Strawberry Pavlova

    We were assigned to the early dinner seating which was 6pm in the Coppelia Dining Room. There are three main dining rooms onboard and each were named after a ballet. Our dining room was on deck 4. It was a beautiful dining room with lue furnishings and accents. We were seated at a table for six (yet only had two dinner guests with us). Our table was right by the window with nice ocean views.

    Our waiter and waitress Rajah and Ivorene were very friendly and attentive. We were handed menus and the wine list as soon as we were seated. We decided to have champagne with dinner and ordered a bottle. As an appetizer Liz and I chose our favorite; the Vidalia Onion Tart. The tart is so delicious and creamy; we always order it when it's on the menu. As a main dish I chose the shrimp ravioli. The ravioli was good but I wasn't crazy about the sauce. Liz has the Black Angus Steak with herb butter. As always she loved it (it is one of her favorite entrees on the boat). For dessert I had the bluebery crumble with ice cream which I love. Liz had the Strawberry Pavlova which she always looks forward to eating.
    The food was incredible as always and the service was top notch. I always look forward to dinner in the main dining room.

    The food was awesome as always but my favorite part was the champagne. We normally don't drink with our meals but I thouht why not...we're on vacation. Liz loves champagne so she didn't need to be convinced to order a bottle. The champagne was a perfect compliment to our meal. Our waitress Ivorene kept our glasses full throughout the meal. By the time dessert came our way we had finished the whole bottle.

    The champagne was extra but rather inexpenisve at only $43 for the bottle.

    The Windjammer is the cruise ship's buffet meal station. They serve breakfast, lunch and dinner. The food here is good for breakfast or for a snack. I've never been impressed with their lunch or their dinner options and prefer the main dining room.

    The Windjammer has no table service. Seat yourself and then search the buffet for some grub. They have every food item imaginable for lunch and dinner to cater to the very young to the older set. Some of the stations include:pizza, burgers, sandwiches, hot dgs, asian items, pasta, chicken, turkey, hot side dishes, cold salads, fruit, desserts, bread and cheeses.
    Breakfast items include: hot and cold cereals, oatmeal, yourt, bagels, toast, muffins, pastry, pancakes, waffles, eggs, bacon, sausage, fruit, cheese and even dessert.

    The Windjammer is open from 6am-9pm and has some beautiful views from its windows.

    We normaly come here for breakfast or a snack but on boarding day there is no other luch option but the WIndjammer. We weren't particularly hungry so we had some pizza and side dishes which was enough to satisfy our hunger until dinner.

    choosing her veggies
    by frankcanfly
    'vela_candela' brought me to this is a fresh and updated version of MONGOLIAN barbeque (not Malaysian).

    Pick your 'meat', and go to the bar and choose your vegetables and seasoning, and the chefs will grill it up right in front on your eyes!

    I combined chicken and salmon with a Thai spicy sauce, and a broad rice noodle.... very good!!

    Why does Ice Cream always
    make you so thirsty?
    by garridogal
    It smells so good of rich buttery chocolates and confections when you walk in that I dare you not to ask "Diet? What diet?" Are you chocoholic or just craving something sweet and decadent? Then this is the place for ya!

    I had a scoop of Chocolate Cashew and a scoop of New Orleans Praline. Yum.....

    Lester's has been around forever, and so have the waitresses. Open 24 hours this is a great place for a good cheap meal. It is absolutely huge, the food is great, and no need to worry for your safety at 3 a.m. as the local police are always here enjoying a well deserved meal.

    everything is good, but you need to try their homeade pies.

    Jackson's Steakhouse
    by AnjoLuci
    Jackson's Steakhouse, located adjacent to the heart of downtown Fort Lauderdale on sophisticated Las Olas Boulevard, carries on the tradition of the great American steakhouses. Jackson's is reminiscent in style of a private men's club with its rich mahogany paneling, high-beamed ceilings, brass trim, marble accents and warm fabrics. The spectacular setting befits the classic steakhouse menu.

    Steak!!!
