Breakfast, Lunch Or Dinner?

[Saphire]

While onboard, my favorite meal of the day is breakfast! If I do have breakfast at home, it is usually something light. Reading the extensive HAL breakfast menu is like being a kid in a candy store. I love just about everything offered. I also love having the *time* to enjoy a leisurely meal. Of course watching the ocean go by makes everything all the more delightful.

 

I am looking forward to trying some new things this time around, (french toast, pancakes). I can never seem to pull myself away from all the variatons of eggs benedict. ;)

 

What about you, what is your favorite meal onboard and why?

[realnurse2]

I guess I'm a breakfast person myself , just not when I first wake up! Love Freshly- made :D:D waffles, just wish they had decent syrup! As a Canadian I can enjoy real maple syrup whenever I want! YUM

[Cruising-along]

I'm a breakfast person too. I love the made-to-order omelets on HAL.

For lunch I love the Asian stir-fry section at the Lido.

For dinner, too many great entrees to count! :D

I like lunch. I eat lots of salads, enjoy the roast chicken, occasionally have a small serving of pasta depending what they are featuring that day. I also like the Mexican saute chicken on the taco bar. :)

 

I know I can have all the salad I want at home but it's so nice someone else cut up all the fresh veggies for me. :D Sliced fresh mushrooms, green peppers, celery, onions, hearts of palm (once in a while), brocolli, cauliflower........ it's all good.

Dinner

We love eating in the Specilaity restaurant(s).

And we can each chose something different and share.

You're right.

I wasn't thinkiing.

Our best/favorite meals on the ships are usually Pinnacle or Tamarind..... even had a very nice evening in Canaletto on our recent Westerdam cruises.

 

[Krazy Kruizers]

After our terrible experience with service and bad food on the Maasdam, we gave up Canaletto.

Ate more times in the Pinnacle on the Amsterdam. Naturally we did Le Cirque and the Special Wine Paring Dinner.

I like dinner best because I love being served.

[musicismylife]

I love breakfast on a ship. We always go to the MDR because why not get served! I love the raisin buns and butter at the perfect temperature. *sigh* six more months......:p

[Typhoon1]

We do breakfast, lunch and dinner in the MDR. I tend to alternate between French Toast, Lochs, (no bagel) and waffles.

 

DH is sold on the Eggs Benedict.

[geoherb]

Dinner is my favorite meal on cruises. We always ask for a large table at second seating traditional dining so we can meet people and get to know them during the cruise.

[PathfinderEss]

Ok, I'll admit it, I'm more of a snacker then an eater. Give me some salsa and chips and I'm a happy woman.

If I have to sit down for food it will be dinner in the Specialty restaurants. Love the Chef dinner, wish they had one every night.

[George C]

Its whatever meal I am having at Pinnacle, love there breakfast (even though its same food as MDR and you most be in a suite) , lunch and dinner, well worth the 10 for lunch and 25 for dinner.

Now your are talking!! Yum!! :D

When on HAL I love the made-to-order omelets at breakfast! I also like to treat myself to the eggs benedict on occasion.

 

My parents have sailed far more than we have and Mom's must have is the bread pudding. I had my class on a field trip to Victoria, BC, several years ago. Mom and Dad were there on the last day of the cruise and surprised us on the steps of the Provincial Museum when we came out. She had saved all her pillow chocolate for my students and it was great to see them (they were on a 21 day Panama Canal repositioning in May). However, the visit was short as she had to get back to be sure and have her last bowl of the pudding!

Tip: Tuck a little bottle of pure maple syrup in your luggage to enjoy on board. I can't stand the "fake" maple syrup...it ruins an otherwise good breakfast... I always bring one of the little bottles found where they sell the real stuff.

We're breakfast people, and love the way they do it on HAL. We like it best when we have access to the Pinnacle Grill, but find the MDR and even Room Service wonderful. We normally eat such a grand breakfast ... lunch is out of the question. We just snack here and there in an attempt to be hungry again by dinnertime. Oh yes, they do feed us well. :)

We, too, love breakfast on HAL. I enjoy the MDR but have to say, the freshly squeezed juice draws us to the Lido some days! Wish they served that in the MDR.

All of the above. :)

What a sweet Mom you have. :) That was such a nice thing for her to do for you and your students.

I love the "build your own omelet" in the MDR with a slice of Canadian Bacon.:D It is always served piping hot. For lunch I will go to the Pinnacle if it has windows. Dinner is either MDR or Pinnacle but I'm not a fan of either of them. Too many cutbacks in quality in MDR and Pinnacle is so boring. Time they changed it up.

[motherjoy]

My vote would be breakfast and raisin buns. DH would be lunch and bread pudding.mmAlthough each and every meal is great on a ship as iI did not have to do the prep work, cooking or cleanning up!

[dobiemom]

I love, love, LOVE Eggs Stanley (eggs Benedict but with crab meat instead of Canadian bacon). I took a picture on my last cruise and I keep saying I'm going to put it in a heart-shaped frame for my desk. ;) :D

Raisin buns! Are those like cinnamon buns? Where are those located?
