The noise/commotion/line cutting ( I forgot to get this) , but OK. Looking for a table , which can be an issue. Another factor DW “hates” buffets. “Happy wife, Happy Life” comes to mind. By relaxed, I meant not so formal. I've never had a problem with line cutting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are 1 lucky person, there hasn’t ever been a time when we did go that someone hasn’t cut in line at breakfast.. Now it’s MDR or I get us coffee at buffet.

I've got all the time in the world to let somebody get in line to grab a banana or a carton of milk, I guess I was raised to be tolerant of other people.

Need some butter since it’s nowhere near the bread? No problem. Go ahead. Want an apple? Grab it. My life has enough stress in it. I don’t need to add other people’s behavior to my list of issues. 😂 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ehyup71 Posted January 17, 2022 #60 Share Posted January 17, 2022 Some people really take this whole "Cruise Critic" thing to heart eh? 🤷♀️ For me, any day on a Cruise Ship and not at work, is ahmazing! My worst day on a ship is better than my best day at work 😂 I am NO 5-star chef (heck... I'd probably rate myself a 2 at best) but anytime I don't have to prep the food, cook the food, serve the food, put away the left-over food, and do the dishes... hallelujah! I'd probably have a jammer if I ate bacon EVERYDAY. I think I will survive if it's only every other day. Plus, every other pig will thank you 🐷 😄 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And factor in the fact that what I have been paying for cruises lately is less than what I would pay to go out to dinner every night - I will gladly forgo the bacon. BTW, I do not forgo the bacon because I usually eat breakfast/brunch in the MDR every morning where it is always available - why more people don't take advantage of this is a mystery to me!

jetsfan58 Posted January 17, 2022 #63 Share Posted January 17, 2022 On our December 2021 Cruise there was ample bacon on both sides of the Breakfast Buffet and even at the small convenience station! I guess Bacon Rules. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
syesmar Posted January 17, 2022 #64 Share Posted January 17, 2022 @jskinsdDo you eat breakfast at the same time each day? I wonder if you’d be able to ask the server or whoever puts in the order for the bacon in advance if they could have X number of pieces ready for you at that time? I imagine not having it out and ready cuts back on waste, given how expensive it is right now in many places. Just a thought, I’ve done this with sour cream b.c. They were expecting me. Good luck!

Rare BlerkOne Posted January 20, 2022 #71 Share Posted January 20, 2022 Celebrity and Royal cancel cruises and bacon is magically available on cruises they don't cancel. Coincidence? Maybe not 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lennythenose Posted January 20, 2022 #72 Share Posted January 20, 2022 On our October cruise on the Dream we had bacon every other day on the buffet. Last week on the Breeze it was not on the buffet at all. Didn’t bother me at all. I knew where I could go eat if I did want it. Just sharing information.
