Escape hot dog cart

[gizfish]

I know when Breakaway sailed from NY, they had a hot dog cart that moved to different areas on sea days.  Now that Escape has replaced Breakaway, does anyone know if Escape has a hot dog cart?

I was on escape in July and I didn't see one.

I was on escape a few weeks ago with a hot dog obsessed child, so I would have noticed, but I didn't see one.

No hotdog cart on the Escape unfortunately.  The Breakaway was designed with a NYC theme, so the hotdog cart fit in.

STOP.THE.PRESSES!!

 

There is a hotdog cart on the Breakaway! I am sailing next month. I joke with my family that I could eat a gas station hotdog everyday, no lie.

 

Are they any good?

Well, there was one, not sure if it's still there since the ship is no longer sailing out of NYC.  And yes, they are very good.  Authentic NYC street hotdogs.... Sabrett's

 Unfortunately, no longer authentic NYC dirty water dogs aka Sabretts brand. A few years ago we sailed from NYC and had the real thing from the cart, complete with Sabrett umbrella. Last Feb when we sailed on Breakaway again, they were just generic food service dogs. Still had a few with beers over at O'Shean's, but certainly, not the same thing.

I had a similar experience!

I sailed on Breakaway in Jan 2014, the hot dog guy was a real treat. We looked for him every day.

When We booked the 2018 cruise, that was all I talked about. Didn’t see him until the final day. By then, my best friend believed that  I had imagined him!

The quality of the dogs/ toppings were not as good.

On our recent cruise on Escape there was a Hot dog cart  at GSC . Parked next to the Bacardi Bar. Yum

I was on the Escape for almost 2 weeks in December and there was no hot dog cart. I missed it from my Breakaway sailings.

On Escape you'll find hot dogs at the Garden Cafe, on the menu at O'Sheehans and also on the Haven snack menu. Not Sabrett but they taste okay.

Was on the Escape in June and did not see a hot dog cart.

Buffet always has hotdogs for lunch and dinner, and possibly the children's menu in the MDR if you need a fix.

I agree.  Like some other brand’s such as Carlo’s Bake Shop, Nickelodian, etc.,

NCL has ended its relationship with Sabrett.

The RCL Anthem of the Seas, based in Bayonne, has a “Dog House”,  quasi food truck in its indoor sportsplex, serving up some decent hotdogs...

NCL needs to bring on Rutts Hut!

Update: Was on the escape 2/3/19 and on at least one occasion (Superbowl) there was a hot dog cart parked alongside O'Sheans just as it used to be on Breakaway.

Only saw the Hot Dog Cart once on Breakaway last month. It was parked by the entrance to Spice H2O during the NFC/AFC championship games. We had dogs and they were good but definitely not Sabretts, and the onions were cooked plain, not like the yummy ones on a NYC street corner.

We had a Hot Dog from the cart on our Bermuda Cruise on the Escape back in June 2018.....it was around lunch time, near the pool Bar
