Creator's Key Takeaways

The 86ing of the bree and the sticky date pudding is diabolical. I would order two of each and try and nudge the servers to get me them each night.

If you have dietary or allergy or food sensitivities, gluten-free special requests, you want to make sure and do that before you get on the ship.

The plain chicken and the salmon are gone. And this is the largest question, most repeated question that we got.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Fill out dietary and allergy forms on the Disney Cruise Line Navigator app before boarding.
Ask your servers for suggestions as dish execution can vary by ship and night.
If you enjoy Indian food, let your servers know on the first night as they often have options prepared for the crew.

About our Bacon Score methodology
YouTube Video Description

Disney Cruise Line just completely restructured its main dining room menus! From structural layout overhauls to the sudden removal of iconic fan-favorite dishes, we are breaking down the exact changes hitting the classic ships and the Wish-class vessels this month! In this deep dive, we look at the new "Small Plates" consolidation that replaces traditional appetizers, soups, and salads, and explain how the structural foundation is shifting to match the layout of the Disney Wish, Treasure, and Destiny. We tackle the massive "Lighter Fare" controversy—including the removal of standard lighter note chicken and salmon—and how to still successfully order off-menu favorites like Indian Food. We’re also breaking down restaurant-specific updates room by room: the new menus at Worlds of Marvel and Plaza de Coco, what happened to the Captain’s Gala lobster night, the disappearance of the beloved Fried Brie in the Enchanted Garden, and the brand-new structural cuts hitting the Pirate Night Menu!
