Here’s NCL’s Christmas dinner menu served in the MDR. This was collected on the Norwegian Star in 2023. The menu changes very little year to year and is the same fleet-wide, but double check once onboard to see current beverage prices and for any possible modifications. I recommend the butternut squash soup, the red beet salad, and the asparagus and artichoke risotto for appetizers, the roasted turkey (it was better than the beef Wellington) and the sauteed gnocchi (for vegetarians) for entrees and the baked Alaska and Christmas log for dessert. Service was slow (understandable as they were very busy on Christmas), but the food was delicious.
