szq5231 Posted April 30, 2017 #1 Share Posted April 30, 2017 We will be sailing on Equinox, leaving May 26thy. Curious if they still have a sea day brunch? Appreciate any feedback. szq Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jelayne Posted April 30, 2017 #2 Share Posted April 30, 2017 Are you referring to the large brunch with ice sculptures that was held in the MDR one sea day each cruise? If so that was eliminated a couple of years ago. They do have a special buffet on the Oceanview, believe it is the last sea day, with a some special items but not to the scale of the buffet that was in the MDR.

szq5231 Posted April 30, 2017 Author #3 Share Posted April 30, 2017 yes- that is what I was referring to. Really enjoyed and will miss it. Thanks so much for the quick reply. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Cruise Raider Posted April 30, 2017 #4 Share Posted April 30, 2017 yes- that is what I was referring to. Really enjoyed and will miss it. Thanks so much for the quick reply. We used to enjoy it as well. I really do miss it. I think the last time we had it was back in 2014 on the Solstice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MR_T Posted May 1, 2017 #6 Share Posted May 1, 2017 I always found this to be a very strange idea, I mean it's not as if there isn't enough food on the ship on any given day... the best part of it was watching people going around like crazy animals barging people out the way to make sure they don't miss out on a shrimp or maybe a lb of prime rib to put on top of their already maxed out plate only to leave half of it before going to attack the deserts and don't mention the chocolate fountain... I saw people picking food up with their fingers and sticking it under the chocolate, eating it, licking their fingers and going back for more [emoji33] you would think this was the first time people had eaten all week and wasn't sure where their next meal was coming from... well until they visit the buffet for a snack that afternoon anyway...

saffy12 Posted May 1, 2017 #7 Share Posted May 1, 2017 I agree with Mr T - we weren't fans of the brunch and would actually prefer a sit down Breakfast on our sea day, so this is a positive change to me. I assume the mdr is open for breakfast and lunch then? If I recall on our last cruise lunch wasn't served on port days, nor when the grand buffet was, so there wasn't an opportunity on that trip for a served lunch Sent from my XT1254 using Forums mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[emoji849][emoji200][emoji23] Sent from my iPhone using Forums I believe the chocolate fountain is now served in the OV alternative to the brunch. We enjoyed the change to the norm when the brunch was offered and the later rise. But then I also remember the midnight buffets too ;). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gold1953 Posted May 1, 2017 #9 Share Posted May 1, 2017 People are so disgusting with the chocolate fountain that when they have it at the lunch buffet it is roped off and a crew member dips for you. Last brunch we attended was total chaos. People are suppose to wait to be seated at cleaned tables.. but they barged in and sat a dirty spots before the tables could be changed and complained about the mess.
