0:08.3 | Welcome to this week's episode of Cruise Radio Rewind. Today we are answering your questions. If you have a question about an upcoming cruise or a port a call or whatnot, drop me a line, Doug, atcruiserad.net. We'll kick the first batch of questions off with contributor Richard Sims. Hey, Richard. Hey, Doug. Thanks for being here, man. First question, I'm trying to make reservations for my upcoming trip on Norwegian gym. I'm confused about the difference between Cagney Steakhouse and Morderno, which is a Brazilian steakhouse. I'm also wondering if one would be better than the other since someone in our party is a vegetarian. |
0:41.6 | Oh, it's a great question. I remember when I was going on that ship for the first time, |
0:46.5 | I, too, did not know the difference between a Brazilian steakhouse and a regular one. So Cagnis is a straightforward steakhouse. You know, they have a nice menu, |
0:52.0 | mostly meat focused, as you would expect, in a steakhouse. |
0:55.7 | The, the Moderna is a, and I probably am going to butcher this word, Church Korea, or something similar to that, which is what a Brazilian steakhouse is. |
1:07.6 | And the difference is that there, instead of ordering, like, say, in Cagnos, you might order |
1:12.5 | a steak or a rabbi or a surf and turf. In Moderna, it's one of the restaurants where they come |
1:18.7 | around with swords that have meat on them, and you're going to try, you're going to go into a meat |
1:23.9 | coma because you're going to try about 10 different kinds of meat, and they will just keep bringing it until you flip over the card that, you're going to go into a meat coma because you're going to try about 10 different kinds of meat. And they will just keep bringing it until you flip over the card that says, no, please, I surrender, |
1:33.9 | I give up. While I wouldn't necessarily take a vegetarian to either one, because they're both very meat-heavy, |
1:41.1 | even like Cagnes has other things on the menu, like salads and things, but |
1:45.3 | they all tend to have meat in them. Like the baked potato soup has bacon bits in it, and two of |
1:50.3 | the salads have, you know, some form of meat on top. Maduro is a little bit better for |
1:56.8 | a vegetarian because what they do is they start you off with a salad bar. And it's a really |
2:01.8 | nice salad bar. Yes, a vegetarian could definitely get their fill off of that salad bar, |
2:07.7 | but I don't know that I would necessarily waste a, whether you're using a dinner credit |
2:12.2 | or paying a la carte. I don't know that I would necessarily think of it as a great place to take a vegetarian. But if they're flexible, you know, that would be my choice, would be Madero. Yeah, I mean, I would you suggest going into the restaurant, you know, like the first night and just strolling through there and see if the salad options would suit you because, yeah, I mean, the same thing on Royal Caribbean, the Brazilian Steakhouse has |
2:35.0 | this like massive mile long salad bar. Yeah. I mean, here in New York City, we have a |
2:40.1 | amazing Brazilian steakhouse where I have taken vegetarians. The one at Madero, it's a good-sized |
2:47.9 | it's a good-sized salad bar, but I don't know that it's enough to justify the |
2:53.5 | expense of going, because remember, you're, you know, you're paying for all of the meat, |
