  • Now if I could just get the recipe for “Oscar” Style appetizer at Fulton’s Crab House.

  • Thank you, these look great and I’ll give them a try. But, if you don’t mind I’d like to ask about another dish. There are many reasons I take a Disney Cruise, but believe it or not, one of the things I look forward to is my favorite breakfast anywhere – The Buckwheat Crepe. For years, I’ve enjoyed this healthy, delicious breakfast. Then on our last trip on the Dream, it was served with a salsa instead of the great diced tomato, red onion and olive oil topping. I mentioned it and everyone was helpful – it took a few times to get back to the ‘classic’ topping. The chef was very nice, but if possible, I’m asking that you don’t steer away from the original topping across the fleet. I’ll be on 3 of the 4 ships again in the coming months and I’d like to continue to look forward to my favorite meal. THANK YOU!!
