Lisa63 Posted September 4, 2004 #1 Share Posted September 4, 2004 ... the wonderful oatmeal served at breakfast. I had a small bowl every day, whether it was in the Lido or dining room (or both!). Are there any foods you still miss after returning home from a cruise? Anything from the exotic to the ordinary... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vicar Posted September 4, 2004 #2 Share Posted September 4, 2004 I miss the breakfast buffets. normally I only have time for a bagel and coffee, so i love sitting down and taking my time enjoying eggs and bacon and sausage and hash browns and all that good stuff :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FlorenceItaly Posted September 4, 2004 #3 Share Posted September 4, 2004 This isn't a food, but I am STILL looking for those beautiful Alaskan mountains, and glaciers.....none here in Oklahoma, LOL. It was fabulous being continually surrounded by the Alaskan beauty. Marie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tinknock50 Posted September 4, 2004 #4 Share Posted September 4, 2004 Oddly enough, when I am on board, I have this craving for cheddar cheese which is always present in the lido. Been awhile since I have cruised, so too long to remember post-cruise cravings.....wait a minute......ah yes the daily fresh pastries! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jhannah Posted September 4, 2004 #5 Share Posted September 4, 2004 Salmon. I have salmon every morning at breakfast while on board ship. Doesn't matter what else I eat ... I must have some slices of salmon with a few capers. Man, I miss that right now! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ESLO Posted September 4, 2004 #6 Share Posted September 4, 2004 Yes, I really miss on the Rotterdam The Deli Counter, really great choices of sandwiches especially the Sandwiche of the Day. The Stir-Fry Counter, many of the dishes were interesting and some were abit spicy and stay away from those. The hors d’oeuvres served in the Ocean Bar at cocktail time before dinner. Smoked Salmon, all you want thru out the entire cruise!!!!!!!!! Some of my favorite things, to many to mention........... Regards, Ed S. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sail7seas Posted September 4, 2004 #8 Share Posted September 4, 2004 Salad Bar....everything all cleaned and cut up for me!!! Great variety. Someone else doing the meal planning, grocery shopping, cooking, serving, clearing, washing and putting away. Ahhh....I need (another) cruise.

elmorejj Posted September 4, 2004 #9 Share Posted September 4, 2004 I miss the wonderful raisin buns at breakfast. We have them in England and eat them toasted in the afternoon with tea. HAL ships are the only place where I can get them that taste just like "home" I always have my fill of them while onboard....jean :cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare LAFFNVEGAS Posted September 4, 2004 #10 Share Posted September 4, 2004 Salmon. I have salmon every morning at breakfast while on board ship. Doesn't matter what else I eat ... I must have some slices of salmon with a few capers. Man, I miss that right now! :) Ditto , me too Jim and at almost every meal:p I also miss the Swiss Museli, they do serve a Museli a the Bellagio Buffet they call it Bircher Museli it is very similar to HAL's but HAL has the better one. Other wise I have never seen any where else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RevNeal Posted September 5, 2004 #13 Share Posted September 5, 2004 Omelets for breakfast ... made while I watch. YUM. And HAL's fantastic hash browns. :) I adore breakfast at sea. Fresh squeezed OJ, coffee, omelet, hash browns, fruit ... I'm almost not interested in lunch even as late as 1 am. Almost ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vicar Posted September 5, 2004 #14 Share Posted September 5, 2004 Revneal i know what you mean , there have been times on a cruise when I am so full that I can only eat one entree at dinner :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skybuffalo Posted September 5, 2004 #15 Share Posted September 5, 2004 Being from the flatlands, like ExaltHim, I miss having my breakfast coffee looking at the snowcapped mountains of Alaska. We may be in the minority in actually loving the cruise ship coffee. It is one item that we continually talk about. It might have been great coffee, but then again it just might have been the environment in which it was served. Ron Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FoxyTerrier Posted September 5, 2004 #16 Share Posted September 5, 2004 ... the wonderful oatmeal served at breakfast. I had a small bowl every day, whether it was in the Lido or dining room (or both!). That too funny. I am an oatmeal lover, but not the instant kind. Last month I got a nice bowl added some fresh fruit and took one spoonful and it was the worst I had ever eaten. Worse than wallpaper paste. I love eating breakfast and lunch in the dining room. It's always so nice and relaxing. I hate the crowds in the Lido especially after you get your tray and can't find a table - that's so annoying. :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
