Davidlmc Posted May 11, 2017 #51 Share Posted May 11, 2017 I will check to see if I can locate it on Explorer in June when we go. With all this talk of it I may have to book on Allure just to find out :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CruisinCons Posted May 12, 2017 #53 Share Posted May 12, 2017 They were amazing on Quantum in 2015; was hoping they'd be just as yummy on Oasis the September. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhoenixCruiser Posted May 12, 2017 #54 Share Posted May 12, 2017 I really enjoyed them on the Oasis, are they available on the Serenade? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mixplix Posted May 12, 2017 #55 Share Posted May 12, 2017 Not that I have heard of. the Jewel has them at the little cafe inside the solarium Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
#55worktoplay Posted May 12, 2017 #56 Share Posted May 12, 2017 I enjoyed the Kummelweck sandwich an hour ago on the Allure [emoji41] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Now that looks really good. My first one I ever had was on the Oasis and it was just gross, full of fat, yuk! Threw it out. My second one I had was on the Harmony and what a difference, it was great and looked just like the one in Robyn's picture. Don't give up on them after your first try because the good ones are yummy.

Pumbaamd Posted May 12, 2017 #57 Share Posted May 12, 2017 F&B Manager Werner on Monarch and Enchantment had them made to die for. Never have they been better since Werner was in charge. Much better with the horse radish. R&D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dwayneb236 Posted May 12, 2017 #58 Share Posted May 12, 2017 My wife and I tried them on the Harmony this year. We could take them or leave them. Just nothing special to us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RFerrington Posted May 12, 2017 #59 Share Posted May 12, 2017 can any recent Oasis guests comment on gravy vs. jus? We were on Harmony in Feb and the beef on weck had the wonderful, delicious, original au jus back !! I guess it just depends on who is making them.

njmomof2 Posted May 12, 2017 #60 Share Posted May 12, 2017 See, the problem is, that's not a beef on weck. A kummelweck roll has salt and caraway seeds. That bun in Robyn's picture has a couple of caraway seeds , but no salt. The meat should be rare, thin cut. We had one when we sailed Oasis a few years ago. My sister, BIL and niece all went to college in Buffalo so we've gone up and back many times over the years. Talked the kids into trying it. No one liked it at all. Thick slabs, over done, and the buns just weren't up to what we are used to getting. This time on Allure, we didn't even bother. But for some, it's delicious. I'd recommend trying it and seeing if you like it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare vacationlover_mn Posted May 12, 2017 #61 Share Posted May 12, 2017 I think the sandwiches are way over rated around here. I never even had one when we were last on Oasis in January. My DH and I agree! Since Park Cafe had a ton of other fun food options on HOS, we ended up eating them instead :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
squadron Posted May 12, 2017 #62 Share Posted May 12, 2017 I think the sandwiches are way over rated around here. I never even had one when we were last on Oasis in January. Agreed - Ok but not worth racing in to get. Windjammer has much wider lunch choice. If the carving station has roast beef - get some and make your own.

CRUISEFAN0001 Posted May 12, 2017 #63 Share Posted May 12, 2017 I think the sandwiches are way over rated around here. I never even had one when we were last on Oasis in January. After the 6 we each had day one on Harmony...we'd pretty much have to respectfully disagree. Those beef sandwiches are one of the things we really look forward to early into a cruise. Looking at many others also indulging with them (one guy had a tray carrying 12 of them for his table in Central Park)...there are plenty of folks who don't find them the least bit over-rated.

Rare BecciBoo Posted May 12, 2017 #65 Share Posted May 12, 2017 I had my first one on Allure six weeks ago. Ocean Boy is right -- way over rated. Ditto.... I was so excited and was there at exactly the right time, imagine my chagrin when I bit into this over rated sandwich and there was a bunch of sinew or gristle in the very dry meat. I can take it or leave it, don't get all the excitement over it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare BillOh Posted May 12, 2017 #66 Share Posted May 12, 2017 If you can get to Park Cafe within about 15 minutes of when boarding starts, you should be OK, Otherwise, I'd wait until after 1:30pm. Crowds seem to die down after the staterooms open. Bob is exactly right in regard to Oasis class ships. My last cruise on Oasis was our first as Diamond as we got in quickly and were finishing up as the lines got long. On two previous cruises we went down 45 minutes before Muster and walked right in and grabbed a couple this was perfect since we had late seating.

In our case...we stopped at Park Cafe on Harmony after boarding even before our cabin was ready...and got ours. About 30 minutes later...there were more than 30 people in line for these sandwiches, and when we left a few minutes later, the line was even longer...

Rala Posted May 12, 2017 #68 Share Posted May 12, 2017 I think it's like any meat. Sometimes you'll get a tough cut but in most cases it's pretty good. Not a member of the cult but usually have a couple every cruise. Sent from my XT1254 using Tapatalk I agree. Also, I think compared to a lot of "cruise ship food", these sandwiches are a notch or two above in most cases.:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Freehike Posted May 12, 2017 #69 Share Posted May 12, 2017 I had my first one on Allure six weeks ago. Ocean Boy is right -- way over rated. First time I had one I thought I must have been eating the wrong thing because it was VERY underwhelming.

Rare John&LaLa Posted May 12, 2017 #70 Share Posted May 12, 2017 Yummy on Rhapsody. Plenty of salt on the bun. I scrape it off. Thin and rare. Horseradish Sent from my HTC One_M8 using Forums mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
krisko Posted May 12, 2017 #71 Share Posted May 12, 2017 I'm going on Oasis on sunday and like I do with every Oasis class cruise, I'll get on about noon and go straight to Park Cafe for two sammiches. When I go there is little or no line. If I'm feeling the roast beef sammich during the cruise I'll get an early or light breakfast and go to Park Cafe around 1130 and again there's seldom a line.

setsail Posted May 12, 2017 #72 Share Posted May 12, 2017 (edited) I don't think this meat is either prime or choice. I have had it where it's ok ,take it or leave it, or was so chewy after one bite in the trash it went. The rolls are fine. I think it varies day to day and cruise to cruise, and the chef and the one slicing. Edited May 12, 2017 by setsail Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ckrobyn Posted May 12, 2017 #73 Share Posted May 12, 2017 Now that looks really good. My first one I ever had was on the Oasis and it was just gross, full of fat, yuk! Threw it out. My second one I had was on the Harmony and what a difference, it was great and looked just like the one in Robyn's picture. Don't give up on them after your first try because the good ones are yummy. Agreed 100%! The first one on boarding day was awful! Full of fat and not chewable.
