nb125 Posted October 18, 2013 #26 Share Posted October 18, 2013 The best things for us were the english bacon for breakfast until it ran out two days before the end of the cruise and one night only real cheese instead of the tasteless rubber, a whole stilton, gorgeous!

Langley Cruisers Posted October 18, 2013 #32 Share Posted October 18, 2013 Yes, I've had egg white omelets made to order at the omelet station. Yes, and you can also request the pan be sprayed with cooking spray instead of the ladle of oil they use. ;):D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luvscruising2007 Posted October 18, 2013 #33 Share Posted October 18, 2013 Honey Stung chicken is hit or miss. I have had it twice, once moist and juicy and once very dried out. Morning omelettes are excellent. Made to order and many toppings to choose from. I always eat the fresh melon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reallyitsmema Posted October 18, 2013 #34 Share Posted October 18, 2013 They have really, good oatmeal in the WJ at breakfast. There is cinamon, brown sugar, raisins and apricots that you can put in it too. If you do dinner in the WJ, they have make your own pizza some nights, other nights we have seen mongolian barbeque and make your own pasta.

trev71 Posted October 18, 2013 #37 Share Posted October 18, 2013 honey Strung chicken on day 1.. Its really good.. I second the comment about their french fries they are pretty good.. I could list alot of other stuff too here too.. I talked to someone who went on the Allure after I did and him and his wife said there wasnt enough different kinds of food there in the WJ :eek:. I told them they were crazy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Travel R Posted October 18, 2013 #38 Share Posted October 18, 2013 (edited) Although I did not eat in the WJ for dinner on my last cruise - here are the things that stood out for me: Thai Vegetable Fritters with Sweet Curry Sauce Indonesian Rice with Peanut Sauce Seafood Paella (was a lot better than I had expected - and had a ton of real seafood, which I also did not expect) Salad bar - The salad bar had a decent selection of veggies, cheeses, etc - and you can also add some of the hot veggies (or even chicken) to the salad as well. I have tried the Honey Stung Chicken twice, and I was not impressed. I tried it the first time due to recommendations on this board and did not love it (not bad, but not as great as everyone said), then once again on my last cruise because I figured that maybe I had a bad batch the first time - but still was not impressed. But as said many times, food is very subjective. For an alternate to the Trainman Sandwich - I prefer bacon (crispy) instead of the sausage - I've been having it that way for years (and many times without the Jam/Jelly) - and on a toasted bagel (everything bagel preferred). Another variation is to melt butter onto the toasted bread prior to adding the cream cheese. honey Strung chicken on day 1.. Its really good..

I told them they were crazy Compared to years past, the variety of items has decreased -- although I have not been on the Allure, the WJ buffets I have been to are small when compared to some of the huge mega buffets we have in the area I live.

CruisingCaraCat Posted October 18, 2013 #39 Share Posted October 18, 2013 I completely agree about the french fries, really good. For the adventurous (or the Indian food lovers) it seems like they have benn putting out Saag Paneer (sp?) lately and it has been some of the best I've ever had. Before the questions - it is curried spinach and 'farmers' style cheese. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
knittinggirl Posted October 18, 2013 #40 Share Posted October 18, 2013 I like the shrimp chips. Is the trainman something they make up (never seen it), or something you prepare? Don't understand why you get better results in the Windjammer, unless it's taster because it's on a cruise ship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No the Trainman is a poster on this site that does some great "LIVE" reviews along with his wife Judith. He loves creating names for things he makes up specifically in the Windjammer. Search Trainman and you will find him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't understand why you get better results in the Windjammer, unless it's taster because it's on a cruise ship. You will find the Trainman sandwich a few posts above. I really dont know how to explain it. Ive tried to duplicate it at home and it just isnt the same. The English muffins and sausage links I can find dont come close to the ones Royal caribbean has. But yeah, a lot of it may be its because its on a cruise. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nanwel Posted October 18, 2013 #48 Share Posted October 18, 2013 Had the hash on Legend in 2012 out of Singapore - they were ice cold - told the server, there was a problem with the hot pot - noooo - local tastes - the Asian's prefer them cold. Ich!! now, I try a mini taste to make sure they are hot first! Only get them for a treat on cruises. Love a fresh omlete - not keen on the instant scambled eggs (are they really eggs - never seen such yellow eggs). Love bacon. crusty rolls. Not keen on most desserts - most made from the same tastess too sugary white base with a mouse of some flavour (or not) on top. Love an icecream to go as I top off my meal and go for a walk to digest my meal. Love to take my tray of food out to the pool deck - I travel to be outside!! Wish they had more aft patio area's in WJ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ahecht Posted October 18, 2013 #50 Share Posted October 18, 2013 and Vermont cheese curds are awesome! :eek: Funny story about that: on the way back from a trip to Montreal we stopped at the Cabot Cheese factory in Vermont. During the factory tour someone asked the tour guide what the unprocessed curds tasted like, and the guide replied that while you technically could eat the curds they'd probably taste gross. My girlfriend and I just stood there agape, having just spent a long weekend gorging on poutine. We couldn't believe that someone leading tours at a cheese factory would say that!
