techteach Posted October 30, 2023 #2956 Share Posted October 30, 2023 This is a new level of low. Is that supposed to be Eggs Benedict? Cut up hot dogs with potatoes? I remember my mom making that for dinner at the end of the month in the 60’s. I can’t imagine who thought it was a good idea to serve it on a cruise ship. I can’t figure out what is in the forefront of the picture. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can’t figure out what is in the forefront of the picture. The hot dogs were separate from the potatoes but I get your point. I've not found a cruise ship breakfast buffet I've enjoyed yet, Carnival's is just extra bad. The item at the front is an arepa. It's the best thing on the plate. It comes from the Blue Iguana which is the best quick causual spot for breakfast if you don't want to do a sit down breakfast. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare jam19872016 Posted October 30, 2023 Author #2961 Share Posted October 30, 2023 I wish they hadn't chopped up those hot dogs now. The ones they are serving now are different. I guess it's what they can source from Europe and it was honestly the worse hot dog I've ever eaten. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I found the food from Europe almost universally better than what we have in the US. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I found the food from Europe almost universally better than what we have in the US. I've heard beef is very different than what we have. This wasn't even a beef hot dog which I'm not sure of what Carnival usually serves is a real beef hot dog, but this was not what they usually source. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I got 3 out of 4 miles in. Seas aren't bad so far just a slight rock to remind us we are at sea without knocking us around. Today's coffee is being enjoyed in Habana. The music is on but not unbearably loud like last cruise. I haven't figured out how to turn it off in this room, but as I said it's not too terribly loud. Your quest on these sea days should be to scour all of the lounges on the ship to find the off switch for the music. Then post the list as for all Conquest class….

techteach Posted October 30, 2023 #2973 Share Posted October 30, 2023 I’ve spent the last 30 minutes catching up since Thursday. The cakes, for the most part, look really good. So, now I have to go prepare to bake a cake this afternoon. Love reading your posts @jam19872016 and I’m glad the food has improved. I wonder if they brought on new cooks in Las Palmas. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is so true. The omelets are cooked in some kind of oil that is a total turnoff. And what passes for eggs benedict sitting under a heat lamp? Hard pass. Soggy bacon and inedible scrambled eggs. Yuck. HAL and Princess have a decent biscuit and gravy combo . . . but Carnival doesn't even have that on offer any more. I am now reduced to eating fruit and cottage cheese at the breakfast buffet. OK, the fruit is good and is good for me. Sigh. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
