thecruiserofships Posted January 20, 2014 Author #126 Share Posted January 20, 2014 The food photos with beans in them were from my Alaskan cruise. Since we were close to Canada that is probably why they were served. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elliair Posted January 20, 2014 #127 Share Posted January 20, 2014 The food photos with beans in them were from my Alaskan cruise. Since we were close to Canada that is probably why they were served. Even Princess has those beans on the buffet menu for breakfast. Not the first time I have seen them for breakfast on Carnival or Princess. They must get a deal on them, or they feel compelled to fill up an empty space on the buffet. DH did get some for breakfast every day - I passed on them.

skyeman27 Posted January 20, 2014 #130 Share Posted January 20, 2014 Breakfast starts with room service at 6am. 3 croissants with butter and jam, coffee and tomato juice. An hour later it is off to the Lido buffet and the omelet station. At the omelet station I get an omelet which I request not to be folded and kept round as a pancake, then I get 3 eggs over easy and have them placed on top of the omelet, then I get the bacon and maybe more bacon...

roohound Posted January 21, 2014 #132 Share Posted January 21, 2014 It always amuses me when people are so disparaging of baked beans on a breakfast buffet. It's not a way of being cheap, it's a way of providing traditional breakfast foods. I'm sorry if they don't happen to be *your* traditional breakfast foods but hey, here's a hint: there's a lot going on outside of your world. Instead of making fun of what you don't know, maybe embrace a little change. Or at least accept it. But to just rag on it because it's not what you know makes you look a little silly and small minded. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

djacobson Posted January 22, 2014 #136 Share Posted January 22, 2014 (edited) This past weekend on the Elation, there were two "Seaday Brunch" mornings in the mid-ship dining room (no comedian to have to put with). One of the items on the menu was Huevos Rancheros, served with three salsas, home fries and chicken on a flour tortilla. I also tried the Steak and Eggs, which was a filet mignon, topped with spinach, served with two fried eggs, home fries and bernaise sauce. For some reason, there was also a raw tomato with bread crumbs on it and cold and hard piece of bread with it. Did not like that. The Huevos Rancheros were very good and now is my favorite breakfast. On the port days, I like to order two eggs with the French toast and bacon. I also like the Norlander bread. And of course, a few cups of coffee.

marshhawk Posted February 21, 2014 #141 Share Posted February 21, 2014 OK, on the Lido, the deep fried hard boiled egg. I have been told they are called Scottish Eggs. They are swinging!

Throwdownmyace Posted February 21, 2014 #144 Share Posted February 21, 2014 Brits and Aussies always have baked beans on toast for Brekkie . It 's pretty good and fills you up for the day. Beans also good with eggs and tortillas! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rippy13 Posted February 21, 2014 #145 Share Posted February 21, 2014 They go on toast. English breakfast left over from WWII,when food was scarce. I discovered this on a trip to England in 2006. It is a favorite of mine now!:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They don't have them every day though, so you have to look for them. These are another delicious British thing and are sold ready made in all supermarkets and eaten on picnics..often shorted to scotch egg. However they do not go with baked beans.

christyran1228 Posted February 21, 2014 #148 Share Posted February 21, 2014 (edited) My favorite breakfast food in the Lido is the Sausages and Onions - its a variety of different types of sausages. Tasty! Loved these on the Elation with either an omelet from the omelet station and the potatoes, or with pancakes & syrup. So good! November we are going on the Triumph, so we will get to try a burrito at the Blue Iguana ... but we're from San Antonio and we know burritos. ...so we will see how it measures up!

christyran1228 Posted February 21, 2014 #149 Share Posted February 21, 2014 I was introduced to bagels and salmon on a cruise ship back in the day and fell in love. Now I always get it while on a cruise. I don't have it at home, so it' a treat! Also the croissants are hard for me to pass up. These are what got my husband to agree to let me book our next cruise. I kept texting him pictures of them until he caved ... Sent from my Commadore 64 using the Cruise Critic forum app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
