    I didn't say they didn't exist. I said I've never heard of them. So I'm not wrong on that one. I really haven't. I've eaten lobster at sushi restaurants many times, but mine have always had some trendy fancy name. LOL!  And sorry you've not heard of the sandwich. They are good. 

     

    Oh trust me, I've had plenty of lobster rolls of the sandwich variety.  I was stationed in Maine for four years while I was in the Navy.   Heck, they even put lobster on pizza up there.  🙂

    I can't imagine how anyone in the world could think lobster roll meant anything other than lobster roll. It's a sandwich. If someone says cinnamon roll, do we need to clarify that we don't mean sushi? Good grief. I've only ever heard of one lobster roll in my life, and it's the same one everyone else has heard of, except the one person in this thread.

     

    I'm afraid you're wrong on this one.   I just had Lobster Roll at the sushi restaurant this past weekend.

    I'm not sure what inadequate wages you're talking about?    Many many many of the crew sign up for multiple 8-9 month stretches away from their families, to work 12-14 hour days without a break.... voluntarily.    Most people don't do that, unless they're satisfied with the wages they are receiving.

     

     

     

    Why that upsets some people, is completely mind-boggling to me.

     

     

     

     

     

    You mean that they aren't really indentured servants who have been shanghaied from their home countries?

    Actually I'm sailing by myself and I was thinking if I was heading up to my cabin and it wasn't quite ready yet it would give me a place to sit and chill😉 It is also helping me decide whether or not to carry on my small suitcase I just don't wanna roll it all over the ship

     

    When I was on the Epic the Headliners Club was available to drop off carry on luggage until the rooms were ready.  That was a while ago so maybe someone else can chime in if it was available recently.

    It's the most boring, least special of any of the appetizers. I'm not saying it's not good, just that shrimp is shrimp. They do nothing different to it than anywhere else in the world that serves cold shrimp. Yet this is the app that has an upcharge. That seems kind of funny to me.

     

    Shrimp is just shrimp?  No.

     

    Shrimp is the fruit of the sea. You can barbecue it, boil it, broil it, bake it, saute it. Dey's uh, shrimp-kabobs, shrimp creole, shrimp gumbo. Pan fried, deep fried, stir-fried. There's pineapple shrimp, lemon shrimp, coconut shrimp, pepper shrimp, shrimp soup, shrimp stew, shrimp salad, shrimp and potatoes, shrimp burger, shrimp sandwich. That- that's about it.

  6. I think a lot of people will just take this in stride and pay it but at the same time the folks who usually tip above and beyond the DSC will stop doing that.   Of course, I said that last time so who really knows what people will do (or cares).
