thesmiths Posted June 25, 2019 #1 Share Posted June 25, 2019 What time does it normally open? We're on an 8 day with 4 sea days, will there be a brunch on each of those 4 days? Thought I read somewhere it was not each sea day? It may have been called something else? Have never been to one and want to make it a point on this cruise. Can you order Steak? And Most importantly, can I order an Omelet? Sunrise 8 day Eastern in September from NYC. Thank You! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BNBR Posted June 25, 2019 #2 Share Posted June 25, 2019 (edited) 8:30AM Yes, steak. Yes, omelet. Edited June 25, 2019 by BNBR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
teknoge3k Posted June 25, 2019 #3 Share Posted June 25, 2019 8:30am for sea day brunch 8:00 for port day breakfast Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
purplephenom Posted June 25, 2019 #4 Share Posted June 25, 2019 I'm pretty sure sea day brunch is on all sea days. I also remember a poster saying it was just a couple times thru their cruise, but I don't think that is typical, unless something has changed fairly recently.

On a 12- or 14-day Journey's cruise where we had 6 or 7 sea days, we did have a couple of those with the MDR breakfast. They then had lunch in the MDR with a different menu. That might be what you were talking about. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We've had some start at 7, 7:30, or 8, depending on arrival time. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare MisterOJ2 Posted June 25, 2019 #7 Share Posted June 25, 2019 Yes, you can order steak and eggs. And it's pretty good steak. BUT... if you really want steak, you may want to order a couple. It's a very small piece of meat. I'm talking 3-4 bites of steak. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toober Posted June 26, 2019 #8 Share Posted June 26, 2019 What's different about brunch? Is it a different menu from breakfast? Other question I don't know to ask? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coevan Posted June 26, 2019 #9 Share Posted June 26, 2019 yes, brunch = breakfast and lunch 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toober Posted June 26, 2019 #10 Share Posted June 26, 2019 That didn't really answer anything. So same menus combined? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you are not familiar with the concept of brunch, think of it as bigger breakfast meals, often combined meals that include aspects of breakfast (eggs) and lunch (steak), and also lunch dishes will be offered, like sandwiches or lighter fare, typically not pizzas or flatbreads. Here is an example of a Seaday brunch menu (not sure how close to the current menu that is - it looks similar to the menu we had last month on Elation): http://www.zydecocruiser.net/menus/CarnivalCruiseLineSeaDayBrunch.htm 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
3smithboys Posted June 26, 2019 #12 Share Posted June 26, 2019 Can you order multiple things during the Sea Day brunch. I can’t believe that we’ve never been to one before! We are definitely going this cruise. I was thinking we could order and share a few different things, but if we wanted to order anything extra, is it ok?

toober Posted June 26, 2019 #14 Share Posted June 26, 2019 Yes, I am familiar with brunch, which is why I was asking what Carnival does different for it from breakfast/lunch menus. ? What is offered that is different? What is offered that is different from the buffets? (sheesh, like a chore to clarify this) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
amyotravel Posted June 26, 2019 #15 Share Posted June 26, 2019 (edited) Prog Rock posted a link to an example, so I guess it's a chore to open links!! 🙂 Just funnin with ya It sounds like you may have cruised before but did not do brunch. It that is the case, you should already be familiar with the type of things you would get on other menus and buffets. Just open the link and see if it appeals to you. For many of us, the dining room is always better than the buffet but nobody can know what you like.

It would be ridiculous if breakfast only opened at a time when much of the ship has already left for their shore excursions. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coevan Posted June 26, 2019 #18 Share Posted June 26, 2019 depending on port time, breakfast can be served as early as 6:30, usually ends around 9. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SNJCruisers Posted June 27, 2019 #19 Share Posted June 27, 2019 The link from zydeco was the old menu. Here is a link to a YouTube video discussing the new menu that rolled out last November on the Horizon. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ls2XCfuMSBs Here is another link that has the actual menu listed as well as a written explanation instead of a video. https://cruiseradio.net/carnival-testing-new-sea-day-brunch-menu/ 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frank12 Posted June 27, 2019 #20 Share Posted June 27, 2019 The new menu is not on all ships yet. Just cruised paradise last week and it was still the old menu. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wms99 Posted June 27, 2019 #21 Share Posted June 27, 2019 just search on the line for pictures of the sea day brunch menu. Lots of them out there. We always manage at least one day having this on each cruise. Variety is the spice of life. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CarolSW Posted June 27, 2019 #22 Share Posted June 27, 2019 If you have never done the Sea Day Brunch , you should definitely try it. It is several steps above the buffet for sure, and I like it better than the MDR breakfast. We missed out on it on our first few Carnival cruises until I read about it here on the forum. So glad we learned about it as it is a must-do at least once on every cruise for us now. I especially like the steak and eggs....it’s a tiny filet mignon, but it’s just right for me!

I only have them on for an hour or so. They get me through the week and I wear them to brunch with no problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
