SailBreakaway Posted May 26, 2017 #26 Share Posted May 26, 2017 Food was great. As good as our local Margaritaville on shore. Prices are less than on shore. Volcano Nachos are great. Margaritas are excellent as well! Covered by UBP. I was a big Uptown fan, complained when I heard of the change. Had lunch for 4, had a great meal and drinks. It was pretty empty the whole 7 days though. I wouldn't expect this to last, not on BA at least. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
everylastbreath Posted May 26, 2017 #27 Share Posted May 26, 2017 Is it included in the specialty restaurants package? or is there a charge regardless? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CPT Trips Posted May 27, 2017 #28 Share Posted May 27, 2017 We were Uptown breakfast fans before they turned into Jimmy's Upcharge Buffet. Back when they did omelets and made to order breakfast sandwiches. May the new place last as long as Carlo's . . . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
newmexicoNita Posted May 27, 2017 #29 Share Posted May 27, 2017 Can anyone tell me what the breakfast is like there? Couldn't find breakfast menu anyplace, sit down or small buffet? Smoked salmon?Thanks Safe saililng Pretty much just simple small buffet. They had scrambled eggs, hard boiled eggs as well, a few meat choices, potatoes, toast and sweet rolls, and some fruit juice as well as fresh fruit if I remember right. There is nothing fancy or made to order, I don't think. You would go there,mainly to fight the crowds and for the view, certainly not for the quality of the breakfast.

newmexicoNita Posted May 27, 2017 #30 Share Posted May 27, 2017 I did not see smoked salmon at breakfast anywhere on Breakaway last September or Gem in February. Perhaps a budget cut victim? They have salmon in fact a huge serving in the MDR every morning and the buffet has a Salmon mouse or you can ask for salmon and they will get you some. In the buffet even though they do give you a huge serving of salmon, you only get 1/2 of bagel and very little onion and cream cheese. You have to ask for extra.

We have never had breakfast in the MDR as we like to sit at outdoor tables. Good to know that I can sk for it at the buffet, although I wish it were just there for the taking.

Rare BirdTravels Posted May 30, 2017 #33 Share Posted May 30, 2017 Anyone?? Yes Not sure I would use my SDP on a $20 lunch versus $65 dinner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
everylastbreath Posted June 7, 2017 #34 Share Posted June 7, 2017 Yes Not sure I would use my SDP on a $20 lunch versus $65 dinner. Not sure why I would have to choose, can't I have both? Isn't SDP unlimited? Is it only 1x day? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Two Wheels Only Posted June 7, 2017 #35 Share Posted June 7, 2017 Not sure why I would have to choose, can't I have both? Isn't SDP unlimited? Is it only 1x day? SDP is limited to number of uses (3SDP is 3 uses, 4SDP is 4, etc.) You CAN use it more than once per day but each use counts towards the total. Lunch and dinner on the same day counts as 2 uses.

everylastbreath Posted June 8, 2017 #37 Share Posted June 8, 2017 With the current Specialtu Dining plan, you buy a fixed number of meals. It is not unlimited? I thought if you picked UDP & UBP it was "Unlimited"?? are there a limit to drinks??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Still Dreaming Posted June 8, 2017 #38 Share Posted June 8, 2017 It is SPD ( specialty dinning package) not UPD ( unlimited dinning package). The drinks package is unlimited for drinks under 15$. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OOOOHHHH - Is it really worth taking as a freebie? Seems like it's not really worth it - Thought you could eat at special rest as often as you liked!

Seems like it's not really worth it - Thought you could eat at special rest as often as you liked! It is definitely worth it to us. We paid 24.84 in tax on the SPD for the escape. Cagney alone would be close to 150-200$ In a land based restaurant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
