The WEIRDEST food we've ever had on a cruise! Wonderland on Anthem of the Seas
Вставка
- Опубліковано 11 вер 2024
- Join us in episode 4 of our Royal Caribbean Anthem of the Seas series, where we experience some of the weirdest food we've ever tried on a cruise ship, at the speciality venue Wonderland. The whole experience is quite magical and surreal, think Alice in Wonderland and you'll be on the right track!
According to Royal Caribbean: "Wonderland Imaginative Cuisine is all about pushing the culinary envelope. Dishes are designed to tantalise your taste buds and present a visual feast. Find crispy crab cones topped with fluffy avocado mousse, gazpacho served with pepper spheres and bread foam, and dreamy desserts that will take your breath away. Pair your meal with cocktails described as 'magical' elixirs crafted to deliver full-sensory experiences."
During the day we visit the port of Bilbao, where we see the the world's largest flower sculpture - Puppy outside the Guggenheim museum and also take the Funicular de Artxanda to the viewpoint overlooking the city!
Back onboard Anthem of the Seas, we have dinner in Wonderland, followed by Spectra's Cabaret in the 270 lounge.

🚢 About Royal Caribbean Anthem of the Seas
"Every day onboard Anthem of the Seas is like embarking on a whole new adventure. Yesterday's roller skating at SeaPlex is today's bumper cars, and tonight's mesmerizing roboshow at Two70 is completely different from tomorrow's Vistarama experience. You'll quickly find the fun doesn't fade with the daylight onboard Anthem of the Seas - in fact, that's when the real party begins. Think neon-lit skydiving sessions on Ripcord by iFly, immersive virtual vistas and imaginative cocktails at Two70 Bar, and savoring sips after soaking up 300-foot-high views at North Star Bar".

Guests: 4,180
Launched: 2015
Class: Quantum-class cruise ship
Tonnage: 168,666 GT

🐒🍌🚢 About Us - Who are the Cruise Monkeys?
We are bananas about cruising! We started cruising in 2014 by doing a mini cruise on P&O Aurora. Making videos of our cruises and sharing our experiences has become our hobby - the complete video is filmed and edited on an iPhone. The videos are our opinions and experiences while on board - really they are us having fun and brining you along with us!
We may not be the youngest cruisers but we are trying to break the stereotype that cruising is for retired people. On a cruise you will normally find us wondering around the ship taking in the atmosphere (and working our way through the cocktails).
We have sailed on P&O Cruises, Cunard Line, Princess Cruises, MSC Cruises and Royal Caribbean. We'd love to try Ambassador Cruise Line, Norwegian Cruise Line (NCL), Fred Olsen, Holland America (HAL), Celebrity, Disney Cruises, Carnival Cruises, Costa, Aida, Marella and Celestyal.

Thanks!
🙏
@@CruiseMonkeys My pleasure. LOVE your vids!!!!!
Aww thank you! Also a huge thank you for your super thanks, we really appreciate it 🙏🥰
I think you might be enjoying this cruise lol. I can literally feel your excitement 👍
Ohhhh yes! :D
I agree with you regarding Spectras Cabaret. We stayed to watch it all, but came out saying never again. Technically it was impressive, but I could not follow it at all. To be fair, not sure if you saw it, but had a similar opinion on 'The Gift' also that was in the Royal Theatre. Don't be embarrassed about getting a whole pizza. My wife has to order them whole as she is Coeliac, so has to have Gluten Free bases. Another great Vlog. I hope you have another Royal cruise booked already.
Glad it wasn't just us then that thought that about Spectras! Oh, its fab they do them! The main embarrassment was carrying it back to the room hehe! We're looking at another RC cruise, so watch this space!
You are having so much fun, its lovely to see. Thanks for letting us come along. I am off on Iona next Saturday for two weeks and you are helping me to pass the last days - thank you so much.
Thanks for watching! Have a fabulous time on Iona! Make sure to pre book limelight and Sindhu as it’s better value that way. Also get you booking in for Olive grove as soon as you board! 👍
@@CruiseMonkeys They are not allowing us to book restaurants yet, except Limelight . Olive grove is definitely the first thing I will do... I told you before, I Lurrrrrrve Baklava. I have been to Sindhu on Arcadia a few years ago and its definitely on my list. Thanks for the advice - much appreciated from guys who have been there :)
Once again you’re shown us a great day tour around town 👍 your wonderland meal was very different, the sweets did look a bit sickly
Thanks for another great day ❤ your having a great holiday
Glad you enjoyed! If you have a sweet tooth you’d love wonderland as they were quite sickly
Lovely video. Thank you for creating it! The desserts looked interesting!
Glad you enjoyed! In was a very interesting experience to be honest :)
Hi guys, thanks for a great video. Nice seeing Bilbao, we've not been there. Gavin looking cool with your designer stubble.
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks ☺️
I really enjoyed your video! I’m cruising back from the UK to the States on Odyssey of the Seas which also has Wonderland, and I think I’ll give it a go after seeing this video. Thanks! Keep doing what you do!
Definitely have to give it a go just to experience it - as an experience it’s fun.
Great day guys food as always looks amazing lovin the puds. Fabulous. Sue
Thanks! Can’t really fault the food and service on this cruise!
Hi both,
Another great video, 👍
Looking forward to La Corunna, 🙂
Thank you ☺️
Lovely video guys. Wonderland reminded me of the degustation menu we had in the Verandah on QE. Glad you are having such a great time on your new cruise line 😃
Glad you enjoyed! Ohhh we had that on QE many years ago, we remember the duck breast in chocolate shell 🤤
@@CruiseMonkeys You were lucky having duck, ours was Pigeon 🤢
Thanks a lot lads, another fabulous video😊shame you hadn’t time to eat in Bilbao or have a drink, maybe next time.
Thank you! Yes, we had wanted to go to the old town for something but time was getting the better of us - next time :)
I love the Wonderland experience, glad you did it too. Only trouble being a left hander the cutlery was a bit awkward :)
Ohhhh never thought about that 😀
Ah, I was hoping to see Wonderland feature in your vlogs from this trip. Looks good actually - I'm always a bit worried dining experiences like this are a bit of a novelty, and often they lack quality. Forgive me if I missed it, but do you mind me asking how much Wonderland was per head? Cheers!
It’s an experience we had to do! We purchased a trio dining package, think it was around £100 for 3 venues. So onboard you’ll Be talking $40-$50pp
Looks to me like wonderland is more about show than taste. Great vid guys
Yes, more about an experience than a belly full of food! Thanks :)
Love u guys bless u both 😃♥️
I have been to Wonderland twice. Tip, if you go again and there was something you weren't fond of, you can let them know and they will bring something else. We didn't like the tomato water.
Yes, they did bring us extra prawns as they were delicious 🤤
love your vlogs xxx
Another great video, how many more in this series?
Thank you! 7 in total so another 3! Then we’ll be heading in to our river cruise vlogs :)
Enjoy
Cool vlog, you guys. I wonder do Sorrentos do gluten free 🍕? 🤔
Thanks! Apparently they do - you may have to wait and have a whole pizza to yourself ;)
@@CruiseMonkeys I could live with that!! 😆 Thanks for replying.
🥰🥰🥰
🥰
❤❤
🙏🥰
I enjoyed your vlog on Royal Caribbean cruise monkeys
Thank you
Looking cool
Thanks 😎
You’re making me rethink my 2025 plans, maybe time to do another Royal Caribbean cruise.
Do it ;)
Hi guys great vlog were thinking of booking a world cruise with P&O on Arcadia for 2024 the only thing is were both only 45& 43 and both male and wonder if we will stick out like sore thumbs were both none camp and none scene.Also trying to decide between going with P&0 or princess cruises as Princess would be from Los Angeles on Island Princess.
Hi! Thank you! Arcadia and world cruises do attract older passengers in general, but when we were onboard in 2019 for 2 weeks we didn’t feel like we stuck out at all, either for being young or a male couple. Cruises seem to be the most acceptable places which is why we love them. We always feel like we are going back home on a P&O ship. Island is around the same age so there won’t be much in it when it comes to the ship. With P&O you will have mostly U.K. passengers but Princess will most certainly have a more mixed nationality. Look at the destinations as that will no doubt play an important part. In general we find Princess have slightly better standards across the board but that can also be reflected in the higher prices. Hopefully that info helps :)
@@CruiseMonkeys Thank you for your response we've decided to go with Princess.
Ok guys thx for the video……..what is in that Miami Vice?
@Paul Wilgus thank you
Thanks Paul 👍
Thank you! Paul has beat us! It’s a delicious cocktail 🤤
Funicular 😂
😀
Hello guys xxx
Cracking update guys, as for the towel art I think it looks like "Alf". Yep, whoosh over your head I expect as Alf was an 80's American dude. 😁 ua-cam.com/video/N7hfv7nl9vM/v-deo.html
Glad you enjoyed! We’re 80/early90s kids but don’t think we had that over here in the U.K. 😂
@@CruiseMonkeys We are in the UK chaps, born and bred here and on the very hot and sunny West Sussex coast. 😎 Tell a lie, it's actually blowing a hoolie and p@ssing down at the moment. 😁
Hahaha! Were in sunny west wales! And guess what, it’s doing exactly the same here 🌧️ 🌪️
@@CruiseMonkeys 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Have a swinging time
Thanks Jennifer
Bilbao time

Catering is a Artform
Absolutely 👍
