Recently I went on a Holland America New England cruise from Boston to Quebec City. I will be making a playlist of the entire vacation with one video from each day in port. In this video, we are taking an in-depth look at all the food on the Holland America Zuiderdam cuise ship. We will start off taking a look at the buffet then moving on to the breakfast, lunch and dinner options.
If you want to know the type of food you will get on the Holland America Zuiderdam ship, this will be the video for you.

I cruised that exact itinearary last September 2023 on the Zuiderdam (first HAL cruise) and loved it so much that I'm bringing sixteen of my friends this October 2024 -- same ship, same itinerary! Consequently, I've booked four more HAL cruises. I need to compare the ships after all. 😂

Now I am hungry! Seems like they try to fill you up with carbs so you don't dig into the more expensive meats. 🎉🎉🎉

@CaffeineMan1 9 ай бұрын

Very true! Its why I have my "no bread" rule for buffets... and to the same extent, limited carbs.

Im going on a transatlantic in the spring on this ship. I’m pretty sure I’ll be on the young side. I’m early 50s.

Yum lots of food choices I don’t notice but did they have a free soda fountain?

@CaffeineMan1 9 ай бұрын

Nope. They have 2 drink packages. One is an alcohol drink package. The other is a soft drink package. You pay one up front fee and then you get unlimited soft drinks all cruise long. Either from the bar or one of the waitstaff. The only free drinks they had were water, tea, lemonade or iced tea.

WOW all of that food looked amazing. Didn't really help that when I was watching this video, I had not eaten supper yet and was rather hungry, so all of the food looked so good and wanted it all LOL. That is a lot of food they offer you which is nice to have. Thanks for showing us all these different kinds of foods they offered.

Did you only eat in the Lido? The main dining room food is even better than the Lido buffet.

@CaffeineMan1 6 ай бұрын

The main dining room had the same exact menu as the Lido Buffet. We went once and although it was served up nicely, they were a bit slow and we went to see if it was the same in Lido and it was. A little sad. We’ve done this on other cruises too. We would check out the restaurant menu and if it didn’t sound good, go to the buffet. I think there were only 2 cruise lines so far that had the same menu in both places.

If they can figure out a way to caffeinate the chicken...that would fly too! I remember on NCL, they had cheese stacked up all the way to the ceiling...(Alaska Cruise)

Yeah, a lot of buffets keep the bread, cheese and fruits in mass quantities!

Great review. Thanks too on the tip to not subscribe (because I already had). I unscribed though as, despite being a coffee drinker, I really despise energy drinks (sorry), although I do like 5 hour energy if I think I need it, but that was before I retired. 😊

Fair enough! Hope you at least enjoyed this and found it useful! 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

So you are smuggling energy drinks on the ship? 😊

@CaffeineMan1 2 ай бұрын

Yes. Yes, I did. 😂 I think if it was soda or something they sold on the ship that they may have confiscated it.

Looks amazing! 🤯 But yeah, American cheese on pizza sounds gross lol… 😅

@CaffeineMan1 9 ай бұрын

I mean, there’s no preparing you for that! You bite in expected a good, maybe great, pizza and then get this yucky American cheese taste. And it wasn’t good American cheese, it tasted like those individually wrapped fake ones.
