    This just went on the "must have" list. I'm a fan of the cider, and the tonsil cleaning sold it for me–well, after the name Scrumpy. I have had the ciders in Normandy and was a fan, less a fan of the commercial ciders: always tastes like someone basically dumped some apple extract into light beer or something. 

     

    It would hit nice actually, right about now. No Scrumpy around when you need one. 😔

    I've something called Scrumpy Jack, is that the same?

    Way back, they used to have table service in the Oceanview.  A corner of the area by the back windows was set aside with tablecloths on the tables and you were served by waiters.  I believe they were waiters in training and the fee to eat there was $2/per person.  Anyone remember this?  i don't think it lasted very long.  I remember sailing from Victoria to Vancouver and we had a table in the corner surrounded by windows.  It was delightful

    I remember it, we did it on an Alaska trip way back....It was a nice dinner.

    On a recent cruise, we learned that we had to be careful to ask for "Disaronno," if that was what we wanted [and it was].  When we asked to have a splash of "Amaretto" in an espresso beverage, we were given a different brand -- DeKuyper.  Celebrity ships have both products. 

     

    Most people probably do not know that the original amaretto -- the one made by Disaronno -- is no longer referred to (officially) as "Amaretto."  According to Wikipedia:

    "The product was called Amaretto di Saronno (Amaretto from Saronno) until 2001, when it was rebranded as "Disaronno Originale" for marketing reasons."

    Great that wa answer I was hoping to hear!
