Rare pirate4me2 Posted April 8 Author #177 Share Posted April 8 Spent a little time at alchemy this afternoon after watching a movie and hanging in Havana. Goran is really good, he made me an espresso martini with fresh espresso from ocean plaza and a 40 is the new 20. 14 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare pirate4me2 Posted April 8 Author #179 Share Posted April 8 Not quite sure what we are doing for dinner tonight. B’s tummy is a little off, we think from rocking, and mom says she’s tired. Anyway…here is tonight’s dinner menu for the MDR. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare pirate4me2 Posted April 9 Author #180 Share Posted April 9 We ended up on Lido for dinner. Pizza & salad for mom, steak & cheese sammich and crab/shrimp cakes for me, and I forget what B got. My steak & cheese was FANTASTIC, and so were the shrimp/crab cakes. We finished the evening off with some time sitting on the patio. It was nice, we were the only ones on our side of the ship out there. 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MObeachbaby Posted April 9 #181 Share Posted April 9 I read somewhere that Cuban coffee is available at the Havana bar in the mornings. Do you know what that entails? Do they have a menu you can post? If you like coffee and happen to order it I’d love to hear your impression. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They include the coffee drinks 🙂 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love coffee and have had a few of theirs, but cannot remember the names. I will make a point to take a pic of the menu next time I’m down there. 🙂 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m not a huge pasta eater, so my go to is either Blue Iguana or the deli…BUT!!!…on this ship, Pig & Anchor has redeemed itself and been GOOOOOD. That Mac & cheese….ahhhh….stuff dreams are made of. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare pirate4me2 Posted April 9 Author #187 Share Posted April 9 Before I forget, randomness about cabin 5227: Our a/c unit makes a weird sound sometimes, like this very rhythmic…not a rattle, not a bumping…I can’t describe it. Tapping on the wall next to the bathroom just so shuts it up. The shower! Oh my! The water pressure in there is CRAZY, I love it! It’ll knock a kid down (wait, no kids under 12 in Havana, so we are good), and the temperature…wow. I’ve never had a ship have the water temp so high that I’m happy on the standard setting, I always turn it up. Not here! It is hooot. So, take that “precaution against scalding” warning seriously if you have this room! 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know everyone’s tastes are different but this gives me hope for good cup of coffee 😊 With edspec’s help I was able to find the menu online, but now I am wondering what complimentary Cuban food they might be serving for breakfast and lunch 😋 Thanks for your review! 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare pirate4me2 Posted April 9 Author #189 Share Posted April 9 @MObeachbabyi had the cafecito and cordadito which was just like a shot of expresso basically. Not big at all. No complimentary Cuban food served anytime. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That Mac & cheese….ahhhh….stuff dreams are made of. So good to hear this about the BBQ! It was very inconsistent on our 4 Mardi Gras cruises and just plain awful on Celebration in December. Can't wait to get some GOOD mac & cheese! How have the lines been for Guy's Burgers, pizza & deli? Just read some comments on FB and they made it sound like 30 minute lines all the time. We usually try to avoid peak times and have little to no issues but we've never been on a Vista class ship so close to spring break either. 😉 I don't think they've had food in the Havana Bars since the restart. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guy’s line moves quick. Pizza was pretty dang quick too. Deli…ugh. I adore the deli, but it’s slooooow and the girl working there this week needs a shirt saying “I love my job.” Twice now she’s been less than friendly and just…unFunship worthy. 4 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare pirate4me2 Posted April 9 Author #193 Share Posted April 9 We hit up Blue Iguana for breakfast about 9:30, and there were no lines. The food was delish, I got an arepa (with the tomatillo salsa it’s YUMMYLICIOUS!) and a burrito. B got the same and devoured it. Mom, being a little pickier, didn’t like the arepa (WHAT is wrong with her???) and unrolled her burrito and picked thru the innerds. 9 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare pirate4me2 Posted April 9 Author #195 Share Posted April 9 In port with us today was Icon OTS, Celebrity Apex, and this AWESOME yacht. We headed off about 10:30 and just walked downtown. I was on a mission to find my guavaberry steak sauce I got here years ago…and I was HEARTBROKEN to learn they no longer make it. 😭 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare pirate4me2 Posted April 9 Author #196 Share Posted April 9 After learning about my steak sauce, I sulked and headed back onboard. It was about 1:30, and we hit up the deli for lunch. I got a veggie burger and then went to Guy’s to get fries and fix up the veggie burger from the toppings bar there. Yum!! I gotta say tho, the lady working the deli is NOT friendly, she’s actually kinda mean (she scowled at me when I asked for cheese on my veggie burger and huffed when I said no fries) and she is SLOW. Expect a long line and to wait 10-15 minutes sometimes. 13 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare pirate4me2 Posted April 10 Author #197 Share Posted April 10 We spent the afternoon in the Havana area drinking Cuban iced teas and lounging in the pool and hot tub. It was wonderful! We stayed until 4, then decided to take turns using the shower and getting ready for dinner. I love tonight’s menu….the shrimp poke bowl is sooooo good, Girod salad yummy, and Indian vegetarian dish spicy!! 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare pirate4me2 Posted April 10 Author #198 Share Posted April 10 After dinner we walked to Red Frog Pub for a drink and to play shuffleboard, then decided that we were just DONE. The sun has taken it out of all of us, and even tho it’s only 8:00 we are in the cabin in our PJs. Tomorrow is St Thomas, and we have an excursion planned so we gotta rest up! 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Essiesmom Posted April 10 #199 Share Posted April 10 That yummy yacht is the M.Y. Faith. She is available for charter, 12 guests in 7 cabins, crew of 31. Costs a bit more than the MSC YC: $1,736,000/week plus expenses. EM 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
