JerseyShore Posted November 4, 2022 #1 Share Posted November 4, 2022 Is there a way to order eggs or omelets via Dine My Way? I have searched & the only breakfast item I can find is the egg muffin sandwich 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kay S Posted November 4, 2022 #3 Share Posted November 4, 2022 Back in the old days (pre-covid) I used to write extra things on the door hanger for room service breakfast, eggs, bacon, etc., and I would almost always get it. I don't know if that was an Elite thing or what, but it used to work. Now, who knows? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eating eggs Benedict in bed is my idea of bliss. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skynight Posted November 4, 2022 #5 Share Posted November 4, 2022 Did you try to call room service to place your order rather than use the ocean now app? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Potstech Posted November 4, 2022 #6 Share Posted November 4, 2022 My SIL was told by her room steward to never use the app for room service, always call. Especially in the morning. Use door card for just small items as well as write ins. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do feel bad when I call though because it feels like I am giving them more work than they would have if the app was used. I wonder why the room steward told your SIL to call?

A cruise is all about quality and service. I would only feel annoyed if my call did not produce excellent service. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I ordered scrambled eggs, bacon, potatoes and an english muffin pretty much every day last week. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We used to go out of SF a lot once the Matre'd changed, never got it. It was nice, we always keep our write ins to something easy to do, like scrambled eggs or eggs over easy. Tried a few times on a Coral Princess cruise in late 2019, never worked. They ignored write ins. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course that is probably because I wasn't on a cruise and Mrs Ldubs did not see the humor. 1 17 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because it took her so long to get her order using the app. Her steward on the cruise, in June on the Caribbean Princess, heard her complain that it was taking way to long to get it after the first 2 days of the cruise. Over 30 minutes. That was when she was told how to order. From then on less than 10 minutes by phone and right on time using the door card.

I would call and place my order and it would usually take close to an hour before I received it. This was on the Discovery Princess B2B. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Always great service when she is on a cruise. I'm a lot slower at delivery at home. Always out of fruit and hollandaise takes a while to make.

Thrak Posted November 5, 2022 #17 Share Posted November 5, 2022 I ordered bacon. I wanted 4 slices of bacon so I wrote "4" next to it. I got 4 orders of bacon. GAH!!! That was a lot of bacon! I'd be worried that, if I ordered Eggs Benedict, it would arrive "warm" at best. I've had EB in the main dining room for breakfast that was terrible. It had obviously been sitting under a warming light. It was barely warm, the muffin was hard, and the Hollandaise was meager and had dried to a crust. On our last cruise (May) I had EB for breakfast a couple of times in the dining room and both times it was absolutely perfect. 1 hour ago, Lizabu said: I wish my spouse knew how to make hollandaise 🤣 You can always make it yourself.

That way you get fresh and not a dish that has been sitting under warming lights. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
justafem Posted November 5, 2022 #19 Share Posted November 5, 2022 I've written special items on the door card for every cruise and received it. Just got off a ship in Sept, did the same and got it. I'll be sailing princess again in Jan. I'll revisit and tell you how it went (if I remember). 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully that will be how things go in the future as well. Guess I'll find out in December. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Ken the cruiser Posted November 10, 2022 #21 Share Posted November 10, 2022 If I can ask a basic room service charge question. Does Princess add any basic service charge when a meal is delivered to any cabin category if no individual menu items chosen have an upcharge?

It is a bit of a pain to make, and takes about 30 minutes to make from scratch. And then I have to find something to do with the egg whites, because Hollandaise uses only the yolks.

Mike45LC Posted November 10, 2022 #24 Share Posted November 10, 2022 Please remember when ordering room service that you will have to find a place to eat the food in your cabin. Even in a mini-suite, I would find it too uncomfortable to eat in the cabin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
