Pictures of Carnival Elation Cruise Food, Feb 16-21, 2015. Carnival Elation has not transitioned to American Table (yet).
Some of the food choices, embarkation day
Carnival Deli Menu
Corned Beef and Swiss on Rye, Grilled
Some condiments available on Lido
Carnival Elation Day 1 MDR Dinner Menus
We started out in Your Time Dining but found the wait time unacceptable and later switched to late seating traditional. I do like the breads left on the table for YTD.
Lasagna Bolognese, starter size
Escargot (one of my favorites)
Smoked King Cole Duck Breast
Heart of Iceberg Lettuce
Tender Braised Beef Brisket in Gravy
Sometimes when you ask for well done WCMC you get overdone. Oh well. still good! Warm Chocolate Melting Cake
New York Cheesecake
The first full day was a sea which brought SeaDay Brunch. SeaDay Brunch is fleet wide on Carnival so all ships have.
Before 11am the bread basket is full of assorted breakfast breads but after 11am switches to delicious popovers. Except on Carnival Breeze a few weeks earlier where they were terrible - seriously overdone.
Some spicy delicious Flamin' Tomatoes Soup
Fresh Fruit Platter, plain (no cottage cheese)
Pappardelle "Principe di Napoli"
An off-menu Fruit Plate Dessert
Caramelized Cheesecake
To some, I suppose martinis could be food!
Tonight was elegant night.
Carnival Elation Night 2 MDR Menus
Baked Stuffed White Mushrooms
Greek Farmer Salad
Tender Roasted Prime Rib of American Beef au jus
add horseradish!
Bitter and Blanc
[The pizzeria on Elation is called Pizza Pirate, but is still the old style pizza. I very much prefer the new pizza on other Carnival ships, but do like that calzones and goat cheese pizza are still available on Elation.
The Deli
No Guy's Burgers on Elation but the Grill still has a Garden Burger and a Chicken Burger
and Elation still has trays - a least for now
But I was in the mood for a little breakfast, so made a bacon sandwich (Oink!), some potatoes, and some sausages. Note that bacon police or no, you can have as much bacon as you want.
The Taste Bar menu for the cruise:
No lack of drinks at the VIFP Party (when Golds were still allowed in)
