Explore food from Holland America's dinner buffet, including gluten-free, various seafoods and vegetarian offerings. These were from our summer 2023 cruises on the HAL Nieuw Statendam. Since there is so much food to cover, the dinner buffet tour will be split into two parts. This video is part one, where you'll see what entrees you can expect every night of your cruise. You'll also see the unique offerings from embarkation dinner, night number 2 of the cruise, plus the special themed Dutch buffet.
All the food you'll see in the video are complimentary. We also show you the free drinks plus the extra cost ones (but included if you have the beverage package) .
Watch part 2 where you can check out the unique food from the other nights, including the German Biergarten buffet: • Part 2 Holland America...
And if you haven't already, check out our other Holland America content for a lot more:

Such great attention to detail and to give each food item a proper showcase! Your videos should give anyone the desire to sail, especially with Holland America! Their food looks so divine! Your videos do an incredible job of capturing that! 😃

Loved Joann’s review of the Mussels. Those sounded so tantalizing! And the Poffertjes look and sound ABSOLUTELY delightful. I know I would have loved those. Overall, it looks like buffet food, but I *know* I would enjoy it. Happy sailing! ~Scott

Hi Angela! Yeah that was nice they had the salmon every night. 😋

Love "croissant wanna be", lol. I think this is just a European thing, but it seems like there are things there that I would want for lunch but not for dinner, like all that bread and the sandwiches. I love that there are freshly-made poffertges. I only eat them here less than once a year at the German-ish Christmas market

Yes that's pretty interesting that they had croissant & smoked salmon for dinner. Those freshly-made poffertjes were really tasty. Thanks for the comment! 🙂

10 more days to go! I wonder if they'll have a German night on our Mexican Riviera cruise. We're so much more relaxed after watching your videos. There will be no problem finding vegan options. Thank you again. These videos are so very helpful!

@jlawrence0181 8 ай бұрын

WOW! What a great video. It is obvious to me that HAL is bucking the trend of NOT cheapening out on the food. I have to admit that the food in this video looks a lot better than what we encountered on the Regal Princess which was also very good.

Holland America really knows how to put on a buffet. Everything looked good except the Brussels sprouts (not a fan) 🤣 I would have gone back for seconds (maybe thirds) the day they had Thai food. There are NO good Thai restaurants near me and it’s too complicated to cook so I’m out of luck. We lived in Los Angeles for awhile and I got spoiled with authentic, delicious Thai food and I MISS IT! I’m glad Joann liked her mini pancakes!

@TravelTouristVideos 9 ай бұрын

Yeah those pancakes were especially good freshly cooked 😋 Yeah we also enjoyed how they had Thai and other Asian food every lunch and dinner buffet. Not the most authentic (e.g. their "pad thai") but tasty most of the time. Hopefully Celebrity will have some Thai food on your upcoming cruise! Thanks for the comment Sally! 😊

Beef tenderloin on the buffet!! I’m there!! Was that a gala evening when they had that offered?

@TravelTouristVideos 9 ай бұрын

💯! Yup night number 2 is a gala night, and so if you didn't get enough of the beef tenderloin it's also at the buffet.

Would you say the dining room food quality surpasses that of the Lido? Some cruises it seems the quality reigns supreme in the MDR but buffet quality is lacking even with more food choices! What are your thoughts? Another great video! Thanks!😀👍

@TravelTouristVideos 9 ай бұрын

Yes for the most part, though you'll be able to try more variety at the buffet. And you're right most cruise lines actually don't have a very extensive dinner buffet, so HAL's is certainly better than most in that area. Thank you very much for the comment! 😊

This was actually in the Baltics & then Norway (b2b cruise), so you probably saw one of her sister ships (Koningsdam or Rotterdam).

Not too appetizing in appearance. Is it the same food on all HAL cruises?

@TravelTouristVideos 6 ай бұрын

From our experience on several HAL ships, the food is pretty similar. But depending on where you're cruising, there would be some regional specials.

@@TravelTouristVideos one more thing, is it better to go in early June or mod June to explore alaska. And which is better to visit Seward or Alyeska?. Please give your valuable suggestions.

@TravelTouristVideos 3 ай бұрын

Not a big difference, but middle June might be better as it's warmer and maybe you'll see more animals. We have not been to either one of those ports, but I think they're more transitional ports where you would continue on to a land-based tour. You can checkout what excursions are offered at each and compare.

16:31 Hello i'm watching your cannel with my wife everytime we enjoying a lot so please understand this message is not on you, on Holland America let me say it as japanese real yakitori or sukiyaki don't have peppers!! what about koya noodle!? rice sandwich doesn't exist!!! who invent these idea of super insults!? if they invent, at least they should respect original otherwise it shouldn't be written "TASTE OF JAPAN" Do Holland America chefs know Japan exist? it's not fictional country

@TravelTouristVideos 8 ай бұрын

Thanks for the comment! Completely agree with you regarding the lack of authenticity of the Taste of Japan dishes, and some of the other themes were not as well. We also found other dishes to be inaccurate, though the taste was pretty good.
