Even when we sail in suites with the deluxe beverage package, we still stop by the Elite breakfast occasionally.
The peace and quite combined with a view of the wake is what attracts us to it.
Our son took us to The Habit Burger Grill on one of our visits to Sacramento years ago. Since that time we have had one open up in our area and it quickly replaced Five Guys as our favorite burger. I like my fries crunch with a little salt. Five Guys give me a bag of fresh cut potato fries but they are very seldom crunchy, just cooked well but quickly go soft.
Give the Habit Burger Grill a try, if you have not already, I am sure you will like it.
We have had many excellent bartenders at the WCB/ Yolanda and Kykoa on Silhouette and Dmytro and Limish on Reflection are some that really stood out in our opinions.
Then again, I cannot recall having a bad bartender at the WCB ever.
I've taken note of this. We often enjoy going to the elite breakfast for a smoothie or a mimosa after having breakfast in the dining room. We prefer a hot breakfast but do love our smoothies. We will be on Milli this coming spring and hope we do not have a similar experience.
I agree 100% that the best thing about the elite breakfast on the S Class is the venue and it's location.
I know what you mean. We have only done Sky class but if the ship has a Coastal Kitchen, my wife insist that we dine there so we've only done Sky suite since then on Oasis and Quantum class ships.
I love those but I only do 1/2 of the bagel .. a full bagel is normally too much for me.
About the only time I eat a full normal size bagel is when I have a bagel at home. Then I'll toast it, and spread crunchy peanut butter on each half. A nice glass of skim milk and all is right with the world.
You can only get the discount pre-cruise by calling Royal and doing it over the phone.
When I did it shipboard, instead of purchasing for the six remaining days, I only had to purchase 5 days and the 6th one was free.
On our last cruise a fellow passenger, Bob, introduced me to what he and the wait staff had dubbed "the Bob sandwich" - one fried egg, hard, five slices of bacon, and a toasted/buttered English muffin. Makes a wonderful breakfast sandwich.
This is the way it has always been. The credit is only applied to the room that you, the stockholder, is sailing in regardless of how many rooms you booked and are paying for.
Surprised many said eggs benedict. I really like eggs benedict but what I have had on cruise ships has been disappointing, even in Coastal Kitchen. The English muffin has been tough and often not toasted and the Canadian bacon is very thin. I have often ordered a two additional pieces of Canadian bacon but it still leaves me wanting.
Can you answer a question for me? In comparing Millennium with Eclipse, it seems the rooms are smaller on the Milli for the same category room, e.g. Aqua vs Aqua, Sky Suite vs Sky Suite, etc. Was that your experience as well?
