El Loco Fresh for lunch

I'd probably go with CK even though CK lunch isn't my favorite meal there.  Miami is super hot these days and if for no other reason than to stay in the A/C I'd probably go #teamCK

Once the ship is at sea and there is a breeze El Loco Fresh may be cooler than the surface of the sun.    

Good point!  I didn't even think of that!

As far as pics, from the Symphony TA:

I can't imagine they have a different day one offering.  The soft tacos are the real star of El Loco Fresh which I also found to be true on Navigator.  I didn't like the Quesadillas as much.

I am kind of confused by @Lovetocruise2002  We all want to go to Canada for the summer and here you are going to Miami and the Caribbean during the summer months for the heat. I''ll give you my southern response  - well bless your heart.

When you are a teacher, vacation times are not flexible.  We cruise every summer.  It is the norm for us...

Igloo is nearly melted leaving them displaced.  By the time the cruise is over snow will have returned to Canada and the igloo lifecycle can repeat.

The toppings bar is pretty on point at El Loco Fresh...too bad on our sailing they didn't seem to know what tortilla chips were and didn't have them available.  Pretty sure that was just an anomaly.  If I was bored with CK lunches I would go there.  Actually I would piggy it up and do both more than likely ?

That is what will likely end up happening lol.

You missed it last week when the group was on the look out for Mongolian Night in the WJ for Hubby.  When it finally happened, Hubby had two dinners that night lol.

Right! I wish I had a dollar for every time I've said, "I can't wait to travel in October when I retire," or "We will have to wait to do that once I retire." ie. Food & Wine Festival, Fall Foliage Cruise, cheap cruises in Jan/Feb., Crowd Level 1 days at Magic Kingdom, etc. ?

Ooohhhhh... Crowd one levels.....!  Of course I remember when I used to run the half marathon in January and we had crowd 3 and 4 levels... No longer!  I really would like to go to the food and wine festival... It looks like so much fun!   Sorry @Lovetocruise2002 back to your regularly scheduled broadcast lol!  Jane

El Loco Fresh is  a great place for lunch.  Even their plan quesadillas were really yummy....and that chocolate dessert .  It's nice too since it's not far from the Windjammer so for one of our days, there was nothing that interested our DS so he grabbed food from Windjammer and  the rest of us grabbed from El Loco.

I haven’t been on a ship with this yet but will in a couple months. Does it have vegetarian options? Thanks 

Not a ton tbh.  I do not eat chicken or beef and so had cheese quesadilla.  They had made up burritos but these were both meat.  But they also had nachos and I think if remembering correctly , make your own tacos so those could be veggie too.  What I had though, was really good, and excited that Navigator include an El Loco Fresh (which we'll be on next month)

Right Smack in the middle of January when its cold.. Also my birthday and its a tradition since I was 3 so there is that too lol , but seriously when you can in 15-20 years try first two weeks of November.. Kids are still in school so not so crowded and the weather finally starts to break.. Side note..

We took a 4 day weekend to go one year in the first week in December.  That was nice...no crowds but the Christmas stuff was up.  As long as it’s not TOO cold I can do November lol!  Jane

I love When all the Christmas decorations are up. Disney is even more magical. I love how so many people on this blog are Disney nerds and cruise nerds.. They are both my favorite things lol.

On topic... Chocolate Dulce de Leche sounds intriguing. Please report back for research purposes, @Lovetocruise2002  ?
