Sissaaaaaa Posted December 10, 2016 #26 Share Posted December 10, 2016 You can always ask for more; we did. They are more than willing to give you an entire bagel and extra salmon. 'the menu makes it very clear it is just 1/2 bagel; I don't have any idea what brand bagels they use and neither do you? Don't get your cheerleading panties in a wad.

Sissaaaaaa Posted December 10, 2016 #27 Share Posted December 10, 2016 On the getaway in Nov, it was no longer in the buffet for people to grab. But my husband asked workers for it and was given a large amount every day! So, it's available, but you have to ask for it. Excellent- thank you.

Rala Posted December 11, 2016 #28 Share Posted December 11, 2016 Lox and bagels w/cream cheese are one of my favorite things, but I hardly ever eat them on the ship. I require capers, and lots of them, and the ship always used the most horrific gigantic capers instead of the better quality nonpareil capers. That's a deal breaker for me, so I stick to omelets. (I'm a caper snob. I use them in everything!) So I won't miss the smoked salmon. Those gigantic capers you speak of are actually caper berries and real not even the same thing as the smaller capers. They are sort of similar but not the same.:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stellanor Posted March 10, 2017 #30 Share Posted March 10, 2017 If they have an edible bagel they're keeping it a secret. I came to this thread hoping to read about salmon, and what I got was a computer screen covered in spit. Thanks, Cruise Critic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pspercy Posted March 10, 2017 #32 Share Posted March 10, 2017 Which ship?? We actually walked out of the MDR on the Escape. Sat there for almost an hour waiting for our breakfast. When they put a half of a small bagel with one slice of lox in front of me, we walked out. Maybe it was just a fluke and not the norm?! Would be great if that's the case! Why be stingy with it ? It's not as though that farmed stuff was expensive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the kids Posted March 11, 2017 Author #33 Share Posted March 11, 2017 Originally thought that we would be unable to have real smoked salmonon the Freedom of Seas December cruise. Very much surprised it was available iin the MDR and Windjammer for breakfast. In the Windjammer, it was behind the salad counter and had to be asked for, but, no problem! Same for MDR, just ask and you will receive and a complete bagel, both top and bottom. unfortunately, the salmon did not prevent us from getting the Flu and being hospitalized the day we disembarked. Better now,thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FranknBeans Posted March 11, 2017 #35 Share Posted March 11, 2017 It's actually kind of funny/ironic -the salmon bagel in the mdr has so much salmon (almost too much ) and a tiny little stingy bit of cream cheese. You would have thought the bean counters would have made it go the other way. Still great, and actually a reason why I had breakfast in the mdr more often than normal . On POA in Jan. they served salmon mousse instead of lox on the buffet as well as Moderno. They also removed the smoked salmon mousse h'orderve in Jefferson's Bistro.

newmexicoNita Posted March 11, 2017 #36 Share Posted March 11, 2017 Don't get your cheerleading panties in a wad. We are all entitled to our own opinion. I stand by mine.:rolleyes: what the heck are you talking about for heavens sake. I simply mentioned, no one knows what brand of bagels any ship uses and most of don't really pay that much attention or really care. Breakfast isn't gourmet eating time. as for asking for more, what is wrong with that comment?:( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
$hip$hape Posted March 11, 2017 #37 Share Posted March 11, 2017 (edited) You can still get it at the buffet. Just ask the worker who is near the salmon mousse. They have Salmon behind the counter. I agree. lox and bagels Even though it's not on display at the Garden Cafe, You just have to ask a worker or a hostess. Since it's not much in demand, they will make it fresh.

newmexicoNita Posted March 12, 2017 #39 Share Posted March 12, 2017 Just off Star...great cruise...not in buffet....very generous portions in MDR...salmon Benedict there was super !!😀 good to know. I was disappointed and understand why others were as well when they removed them from the buffet, but as long as they have them in MDR doesn't make any difference whether it is a 1/2 bagel or a whole one, just so they serve them. That should only be the concern. I do think I will ask at the buffet next cruise, in just 3 weeks.:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dekohman Posted March 14, 2017 #40 Share Posted March 14, 2017 Had breakfast in Savor on the Getaway last fall and bagels with cream cheese and lox were a nice start to the day! Sent from my XT1575 using Forums mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
