This seems like such a silly question but for those of you who have been on the ships lately, has there been the candied ginger bowls at the entrance to the restaurants?

I am an addict and it was missing on my last cruise!

Wendy, it's one of those things that you either hate or love, I bet you and I are in the minority!

Karen,

There were candied ginger bowls outside the restaurants on our Sydney to Auckland Mariner cruise last November.

Dave, I couldn't find them on our Auckland to LA cruise! I remember asking once and was told they had ran out!

Crystal, that is good news since I will be on the Navigator next!

Karen,


Ginger was indeed onboard in ample supply on the Voyager this Summer. Rod

Karen,

I guess I should have listened to my wife when she kept telling me to "leave some ginger for the next cruise." :3smile:

I love my ginger. I always scoop up a handful every night and fill up my purse. Add another one to the list. :p

Add me to the I Like Ginger group, but in moderation. We really didn't need it the DC as most of our seas was as smooth as glass. We were very fortunate. The roughest time on the ship was when we were on safari.

I love it!!!

Even if I've eaten way too much, I can always squeeze in at least one piece. I tried making it at home...not too successful :(

Yes Karen,

Lots of ginger in all the restaurants or at least CR, Signature and Prime 7 - I don't remember seeing any in LV . . . . Cy is an "addict" as well.

There was a large bowl of ginger at the back entrance to Compass Rose but I don't recall seeing one at the main entrance which is also the main entrance to Prime 7
