Clarea Posted October 14, 2014 #26 Share Posted October 14, 2014 Thanks Karen.... oh..and is that only at breakfast in mdr? You can have juices for breakfast in Windjammer and room service too. If the ship has a Park Cafe, there is juice there too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sjb317 Posted October 14, 2014 #28 Share Posted October 14, 2014 The only time we ever eat breakfast in the MDR is on the last day since the WJ is always a madhouse on debarkation day and by the last morning I am kind of sick of food!:D I don't think I've ever had a decent breakfast in the MDR, the omelets are tasteless and sometimes cold, and you get a scoop of soggy hash browns. The muesli on the cereal bar is good but that is available in the WJ. I always thought the food was bad because it was the last day, but then we did a character breakfast once and the food was the same.:( Sherri:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peterbilt Driver Posted October 14, 2014 #29 Share Posted October 14, 2014 Can you tell me at breakfast can you have apple or orange juice free of charge? I was looking under the juices and beverages on the menu, didn't know if that was included or something additional you had to pay for... At breakfast the only juice charged for is the fresh squeezed. The orange juice that's complimentary is from concentrate. Not sure if apple juice is available , have not seen grape juice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ryano Posted October 14, 2014 #30 Share Posted October 14, 2014 (edited) I usually never complain about the food on an RCI ship but if I were going to, breakfast in the MDR is where I would start. It may be "civilized" :rolleyes: but the food is NOT that good. I like cooked to order fried eggs for breakfast and the MDR kitchen has no idea how to do these properly. I have tried on the three ships Ive been on they fail miserably. They are always way overcooked with a crusty edge on them and served cold. The Windjammer nails them perfectly every time. Plus I can make a Trainman breakfast sandwich in the Windjammer :) Edited October 14, 2014 by ryano Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davekathy Posted October 14, 2014 #31 Share Posted October 14, 2014 We always eat breakfast in the MDR. More relaxed and just our preference. We always request a table for two. No issues with food or service. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Langley Cruisers Posted October 14, 2014 #32 Share Posted October 14, 2014 ...Cutting you in line, taking the last piece of bacon.... Err, I can honestly say I have never seen anyone take "the last piece of bacon" because they always replace the tray long before that. I have never, ever seen an empty warming bin on any of my cruises. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
negc Posted October 14, 2014 #33 Share Posted October 14, 2014 It's not you. It's the other hundreds aimlessly walking around like zombies carrying their food looking for a table while bumping into you and/or your chair. Cutting you in line, taking the last piece of bacon, eating off the buffet, coughing on the buffet... No, it's not you... :D:D:D Haven't noticed those zombies, at least not hundreds of them in the WJ and certainly never had them bumping into me or my chair. As far as finding a table, one of us usually scopes out a location while the other gets the first items of food. With the food station arrangement, in place of the cafeteria line setup on some lines, there are very few lines where cutting in is a problem, and food is usually quickly replaced when it is required so there is rarely, if ever, a problem of not getting that last piece of bacon. On Radiance class ships (our favorites) eating breakfast outside at the rear of the Windjammer is a special treat. All in all, I find that the advantages of having breakfast in the Windjammer far outweigh any supposed disadvantages, and certainly are significantly better than our experiences in the MDR. An added advantage is that it greatly reduces my chances of being seated with someone who claims that the only proper way to do things on a cruise is her way and isn't shy about saying so, and saying so, and saying so.;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vermilch Posted October 14, 2014 #36 Share Posted October 14, 2014 We like the buffet for breakfast because the toast is hot. Every time I eat in the MDR they deliver cold toast. I also like to get fried eggs from the omelet station. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
