Instead, they prepare waffles & pancakes back in the kitchen and bring them out in pans. I should have taken a picture. 😕 That is bad news. They used to have very good waffles. Thank Goodness Jacquelyne makes the original Celebrity waffles at home. 👍 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bandp407 Posted November 12, 2022 #203 Share Posted November 12, 2022 Hi Jazzbo - thank you for taking us along and for this great review!!! Reflection is a favorite of ours! Love the photo of you and the Mrs. on CHIC night!! May I ask a favor - a question for the Next Cruise Desk. We are sailing on the 27th on Beyond and would like to book a July & August sailing while onboard to get the $150 OBC and the current BF of $200 per cabin. Our agent has advised that he has group space for those sailings. If I book on board with my agent of record , can he take over the booking and MOVE INTO HIS GROUP RATE? I have done it in the past but for some reason I thought I read Celebrity is no longer permitting the transfer from an onboard booking into a group rate. In the past you just needed to add an additional deposit. I would greatly appreciate your checking. If any issues doing this, I would book it now and forfeit the $150 OBC. Black Friday offer is already out. Many thanks in advance! Paula Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare mahdnc Posted November 12, 2022 #204 Share Posted November 12, 2022 @jazzbo Your travelogue and accompanying photos are excellent. Reflection is a very nice ship. Your photos bear that out. We took our TA on Constellation which sailed about 2 weeks before yours did. The sea-sick monster did get me on the sea day before we arrived at Ponta Delgada. I hope you get well enough to enjoy the crossing. David Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So, I just skip them on the ship. They don't compare to my own. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even when watching a video where the person filming it claims it happened. I even rewatched holding my eyes open so I didn't blink but didn't see it.

That's my favorite but i haven't seen it on any menus lately. We are on the Reflection in about a month and I need to know if I need to find a new pre dinner drink ;-). I just checked at World Class Bar — so sorry, they no longer have the ingredients. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On the Reflection in a Sky Suite last August, I couldn't get either Mexican salsa or picante sauce for over my eggs with room service so I may bring a jar on my next cruise. The best my butler could get were the tiny bottles of Tobasco, which is not the same. Edited November 13, 2022 by terrydtx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare CTSandy Posted November 13, 2022 #225 Share Posted November 13, 2022 Thank you for sharing your trip and pictures! Is Tuscan back to doing buffet breakfast? My last cruise in June, they were offering your choice of several prepared plates instead of buffet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
