(Omg I do the same thing with getting the egg from the station!)

Runner up for me is long running breakfast MVP congee plussed with a poached egg from the Benedict station

The Indonesian / Indian items in the corner of the Lido (including sambal and lime pickle! on the condiment tray) was an absolute game changer for me; easily the best food available on the ship aside from maybe a nice steak at Pinnacle. I ate it almost daily for lunch and it saved my life lol

The Tamarind coconut pineapple seafoam dessert thing, my god. Also I tried escargot for the first time and it was delicious, thank you Joco for expanding my horizons.

I've been saying that RJ City and Dalton Castle would be great additions to the cruise.

Dinner: the chicken. Every bit of chicken I had was the best seasoned chicken I’ve ever had. Dessert: the tulip chocolate thing, looked like Audrey 2, tasted amazing.

Easily Pinnacle Bacon

Gawd pinnacle bacon is so. good.

The photo is a top down look at a large wooden tray holding breakfast. There is silverware, a cup of tea or coffee, a milk jug, orange juice and on a plate it appears to be poached egg on english muffin with tomatoes on the side.

What was your favorite meal (or dessert or snack etc) that you ate on JoCo Cruise 2026?

It has been many years since the peaceful town of Loreto has faced the (oddly corporate sounding) zombie horde! If you attended: what was your favorite performance/song? #jococruise #mexico #jonathancoulton #corook
