bonniemari Posted March 28, 2007 #1 Share Posted March 28, 2007 Most of my adult life I have never been much of a breakfast eater. Can't face food first thing in the morning. Anyway we went to a wonderful Sunday Brunch at a New Orleans style restaurant here in Memphis last month and my friend wanted me to split one of the huge waffles with her. Well needless to say I am now hooked on waffles (with strawberries on top). NOt being a breakfast person I have never noticed if they have a waffle station. Going on the Fantasy next month and I have been dreaming about waffles on board the ship. Crazy I know but what can I say!!!!!! I know they have pancakes cause my DH has had them but what about a waffle station or do they serve them in the dining room for breakfast? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bubbles1209 Posted March 28, 2007 #2 Share Posted March 28, 2007 I remember seeing waffles & pancakes in the buffet at Emile's on Liberty for breakfast. Never tried the waffles, but the pancakes were good.......I got lucky & got some just as they were bringing them out.:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caribbean dreams Posted March 28, 2007 #3 Share Posted March 28, 2007 I'm not a breakfast eater at all, i know they say it's the most important meal of the day but i just can't do it, makes me feel yucky the rest of the say. I like to eat breakfast for dinner and whe i have waffles, they must have peanut better on top:) Anyway, yes, i have seen waffles being served on the ship, and they do have peanut butter:p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kimberlys Posted March 28, 2007 #4 Share Posted March 28, 2007 I like waffles too and if I remember correctly, they alternate the pancakes and the waffles at the breakfast buffet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
big_duck Posted March 28, 2007 #5 Share Posted March 28, 2007 Waffles are available in the dining room, not the buffet. The buffet alternates pancakes and french toast. Consider for a moment the number of waffle makers that would be required to keep the buffet stocked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
runcassrun_07 Posted March 28, 2007 #6 Share Posted March 28, 2007 I am a waffel lover too and do remember the waffels in the dining rooms. They were'nt pretty good, not to bad. You'll have to go to the dining room every morning:D . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cotton Posted March 28, 2007 #7 Share Posted March 28, 2007 Bonnie - Since you said those waffles were big, I'm wondering if you had Belgian waffles? They're not thin like regular waffles, and they're square, about 1.5" thick, very very light. I've had the Belgian waffles only once in the dining room, served more like a dessert at lunch - w/strawberries and whipped cream. Excellent.:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GORDONCHICK Posted March 28, 2007 #8 Share Posted March 28, 2007 FYI - Celebrity has Belgian waffles (the big thick ones, not to be confused with regular much flatter waffles) with various fruit toppings, whipped cream, and syrup. They are absolutely wonderful! They are at an aft station every morning, with usually three irons going. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mzloolue Posted March 28, 2007 #10 Share Posted March 28, 2007 When did they start having waffles at breakfast? Sensation Aug 2005= no waffles Ecstacy Aug 2006= no waffles And if you want crepes you have to stay up until midnight.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cotton Posted March 28, 2007 #11 Share Posted March 28, 2007 I'm with you...wondering. I've always seen pancakes, but not waffles on the b'fast menu. Only once, when I had trouble deciding what to have, the waiter asked if I'd like a waffle. Voila! - two regular waffles appeared!:) That was on one of my Holiday cruises.

GoinCruisin Posted March 28, 2007 #12 Share Posted March 28, 2007 I haven't seen waffles... but I probably wouldn't eat them on the ship, I would imagine they would be more like Eggo waffles :p LOL I don't eat them often, but when I do, I like a GOOD waffle!!! OP, if you had real waffles, be careful of buffet style waffles... they are NOT the same :eek: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are absolutely wonderful! They are at an aft station every morning, with usually three irons going. You're right.....Celebrity has the BEST waffles! NCL had a waffle and pancake station and their waffles were horrid. Haven't seen any on the Legend (unless the dining room had them........we didn't go there for breakfast) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cotton Posted March 28, 2007 #15 Share Posted March 28, 2007 No, GC, really the ones I had on the Holiday were very good, and freshly made from batter. You can definitely tell the difference.:) They tasted like the ones I make from scratch at home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnaricka Posted March 28, 2007 #16 Share Posted March 28, 2007 yep yep yep...waffles!! You are making me so hungry. On my four day Ensenada cruise they served waffles in the dining room.

markandstacie00 Posted March 28, 2007 #19 Share Posted March 28, 2007 I like the breakfast on Carnival in the buffet and dining room, but some of the best meals at sea I've had been Celebrities breakfast. On their buffet they make Belgian Waffles while you wait and our absolutely incredible! They serve them with any combination of toppings: Blueberry, Strawberry, raspberry, butter, syrup, brown sugar, cinnamon, powdered sugar, and whipped cream! My kids and I mad that a daily ritual and it rivaled any breakfast I've ever had. Sadly It's not worth changing cruise lines for. On the Liberty buffet last week they had pre made waffles stacked at the end of the isle not even under a heat lamp :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
