Rare laurieal Posted March 20 #777 Share Posted March 20 Is tea time a thing on all Celebrity ships? If it is I never noticed it when I sailed with them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've never noticed it before. It is not in the app or the paper. I only heard about it from another passenger. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They have scones (plain & Raisin), clotted cream and a couple types of finger sandwiches. Teas is from the tea bags they have in the buffet. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They bring it to you, so you don’t have to carry stuff, the tea is made with leaves, they have Wilkins jam, and there is a string trio. Sandwiches aren’t as good as they used to be, though: they don’t always have smoked salmon. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare jam19872016 Posted March 20 Author #784 Share Posted March 20 I'm trying to taper my mom's expectations. This is not going to be anything like Cunard’s tea time but I hope it's at least better than Carnival's. Besides, until I have seen sufficient evidence they can match the salt and pepper, I can't book them no matter how lovely the food. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is always good for a man to have standards. 😀 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluewater1298 Posted March 20 #786 Share Posted March 20 The pound cake looks like the same ones they had in the Al Bacon display. I wonder if they swiped a few from the cart this morning? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But the bread things are too big to count as teatime sandwiches. Now whisper it: there have been many complaints that Cunard serves whipped not clotted cream. Have you a separate cake plate? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had to Google the difference. Not sure I would know if they told me it was clotted cream if they were being truthful or not 😆. No cakes, just the apricot belinger because I wanted to stay away from things that looked like they could be part of the regular buffet. The plan worked well. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The bread to filling ratio looked off but it was not. It had cream cheese on it and it paired very nicely with the beet. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Never heard of it I vaguely recall seeing something similar once at Cafe Promenade just on the little round buns they use. I could be mistaken but I've seen something similar somewhere. It was very tasty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Small but seems adequate for the number of people on the ship. First come first serve but there has always been availability. Treadmills to my left. And my right.
