trin880 Posted August 7 #26 Share Posted August 7 Counting days till getting my daily almond croissants for breakfast. I've never seen Pavlova, but will pay more attention next time. Brie sandwiches and few other varieties are really good. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rocker57 Posted August 7 #28 Share Posted August 7 Brie sandwiches definitely get them heated up, so good. Personally I don’t get the rave about the almond croissants, but each their own. They used to have a chicken salad that I loved, but they don’t do that anymore 😞 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've just been thinking that although the pavlova doesn't have dairy the ships chef will probably lather it in cream. 😝 So sorry to get you all excited about it. Maybe you can cut off the creamy top and give it to your travelling partner. They will love you forever! 😁 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t know why they stopped serving these items at the IC. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
9tee2Sea Posted August 7 #32 Share Posted August 7 anything with spinach in it. I think I once had a spinach stuffed pastry in the IC. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare BamaVol Posted August 7 #33 Share Posted August 7 I don’t eat sweets. But my go-to late night snack is a tuna salad croissant from the IC. In the morning, I always look for wedges of fresh grapefruit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Before the pandemic IC had nutella-filled donuts. Long gone. My favorite is still mini egg muffins for breakfast (3 flavors). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reedprincess Posted August 7 #37 Share Posted August 7 Monkey Bread (usually only one morning on 7 night sailing) Cinnamon rolls - again, once a 7 nighter. Both need to be warm to be optimal, but delicious cold also. Pretzel bread turkey sandwich Ham and cheese croissant Mortadella sandwich. Steak and Guinness pie Watermelon feta salad Double chocolate cookies Brie sandwich MDR: Pumpkin walnut crepes Souffles Sorbets (different every day, light and refreshing) Vietnamese spring rolls Salmon cake with poached egg and hollandaise Fettuccine Alfredo Penne ariabatta when they do it fresh Salmon Plenty more yummies - enjoy exploring the different tastes! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare talkorpi Posted August 7 #38 Share Posted August 7 Add another vote for the chocolate chip brioche. They only seem to have them like once every couple of days so I usually get a ziploc and load it up when they have it out... that stuff is SO good!!!

treesah Posted August 7 #39 Share Posted August 7 Those fresh, out of the oven, almond croissants are in a league of their own. They have to be warm, otherwise is not the same. The quiche is also delicious. Makes a perfect lunch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are probably looking at the line for coffee. It's never much of a wait to get food. 6 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it's a function of time of day. Lunch lines are always longer for food in my experience. People freshly back from excursions can cause food lines, too. Since the advent of the app, I have taken to ordering my latte on the app and having it brought to me while I sit near the IC (if I can find a table!) I haven't tried that with the food, though.

However, if you ask the IC manager, they will let the Chef know, and get them more often! Yeah! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for the tip using the app. Sailing Princess next year (last time 2016) so the medallion thing and ordering on the app is going to be new to us. I remember when getting morning coffee the place was a zoo and then finding a place to sit was near impossible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Once in a while the coffee line was 5 people deep (the horror!), but, goodness, that's nothing and it goes so quickly. Also, on Royal class this same fancy coffee is available at the Horizon bistro in the buffet. I'd get an iced one at the IC, and then a couple of hot ones for my parents and DH in the buffet. We always cruise during school breaks, so the ships are always full to the brim. Edited August 7 by Itchy&Scratchy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thrak Posted August 7 #45 Share Posted August 7 On ships with a Coffee and Cones you can get your snazzy coffee there and on ships with the Princess Live Cafe you can get it there. On Grand Princess we almost always got our morning coffee at Coffee and Cones. It was quick and there was rarely a wait. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our last experience was Caribbean Princess and it seems like everyone wanted coffee at the same time and food too. It was a transatlantic and the weather wasn’t great so more people were indoors, they even brought in tables and chairs from the pool area for extra seating. We were twice on Grand Princess and it was busy but not intolerable, hoping for same. We’re old pros on Holland America, thankfully their coffee is decent in the Lido and you can easily find a table under the covered pool deck.

KreinKrunker Posted August 8 #47 Share Posted August 8 These were good on the Discovery solar eclipse cruise. Ms Krunker likes the Tuna Salad Sandwich, but I go for the Egg Salad. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And on Sapphire I could get my lattes at the pool bar after 6:00AM, before that it was the IC but nice other areas have the machines now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ldubs Posted August 8 #49 Share Posted August 8 They have these sliced breads that are terrific with coffee. I just can't remember exactly. It was like banana bread, which they also have, but something else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
susancruzs Posted August 8 #50 Share Posted August 8 This thread makes me wish October would get here quick. I loved the Emerald Princess in '18, many of the things listed above! Early riser, never had to wait for coffee. After a few visits, they would see me coming and ask if I wanted the usual! At lunch I had the tomato and mozzarella flatbread toasted. On board for 30 days, never went to the buffet, had enough to eat at the IC for breakfast/lunch. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
