Aus Traveller Posted June 25, 2015 #26 Share Posted June 25, 2015 Soft serve is/was available in the buffet.:D The only ship we have been on that had soft serve in the buffet was the Carnival Jubilee. When she came to Australia as the Pacific Sun (see how long ago that was) we were disappointed to see the self-serve soft-serve machine was gone. We were told on board that it had been moved to the crew area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cunard's QM2 also has them in the buffet as well as up by the pool deck.:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On the Sun/Dawn/Sea it is on deck 12 at the far end of the pool. I take your word for it about QM2 as I haven't been on her. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ozmonkeyboy Posted June 25, 2015 #30 Share Posted June 25, 2015 I wonder what they plan on doing for the milkshakes now? I know the kidlets are going to be disappointed.... I doubt whether they will use the "premium" NZ brand.:p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare MicCanberra Posted June 25, 2015 #31 Share Posted June 25, 2015 (edited) I wonder what they plan on doing for the milkshakes now? I know the kidlets are going to be disappointed....I doubt whether they will use the "premium" NZ brand.:p Perhaps they will use full cream with ice and blend it like in the cocktails.

LoL He is not alone, many people will try something or have something as it is included or free, but paying is another matter as they don't want it that much.:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I try and have something to eat each week that I wouldn't normally have, because it's free if I don't like it I can always get something else, nothing lost.
