He was so full of enthusiasm for the 5K or the trivia games it was contagious. We are fans of his as well now. I believe that some CM's are due for some time off shortly but I do not know about Frankie. Hopefully he will still be there for your cruise. Have fun!!
This is an EASY choice ....
PALO BRUNCH: Laszlo Gion (Hungary), or Susana Moreira (Portugal)
MAGIC MDR: Sompong "Sammy" Poonchuroensuk (Thailand)
- Sammy is one of the longest running servers on the Magic ... having worked in the MDR for more than 13 years! He is probably the best server on the Magic, and one of the top 3 MDR servers in all of DCL!
If you see them ... tell them I will be seeing THEM in September!

Ivan Frick (Hungary) will be returning to the Disney Fantasy (Palo Server) on April 25, 2014 ... through mid September 2014. Remember, there are two Palo servers named Ivan ... so please remember to ask for Ivan Frick (Hungary).
uh-oh we cruise on 4/12 and were planning to stop in on embarkation day to see if Palo manager could note our request for Ivan Frick.
Steve, who else would you suggest in his absence....?
We are CC members and have been to Palo many times but honestly never had great service. We are being joined by two dear families whom have never cruised DCL & I really want everything to go perfectly!!
Advice appreciated!
I sent you a detailed PM.
Hers's a few more suggestions to make your experience MAGICAL in Palo ...
1) Tell your server that your guests are new to DCL.
2) Make sure you request multiple appetizers.
3) My personal preference for the entree is the Palo Tenderloin, with BOTH sauces (on the side)
4) Make sure you save room for the Palo Souffle (I request chocolate AND vanilla sauce).
5) DO NOT HESITATE to request other desserts ... and make sure you get at least one dessert to go!
ENJOY!

Sammy does not utilize e-mail Facebook, or other electronic media. If I need to ask him a question, I can sometimes get a question to him through a mutual friend, but I find it to be easiets to mail him a letter ... and makre sure I send him stationary, envelope and postage stamp for his reply. In your case, I would simply request Sammy for your cruise, and ask for an alternate as a back-up (if you have one). If you get Sammy, PLEASE make sure you tell him you found out about him on DISBoards! Many of his loyal subjects have begged him to have a cast member teach him the basics about Facebook. I'm not sure he will do that ... regardless ... he is a phenomenal person, and a MAGICal server.
I did get that these are the most popular, and I think I might have good odds of getting Laszlo for Palo (possibly or the back up), but Sammy is like a super star and I would like to have a back up in case he has already been requested. I have had a few suggestions PMed to me. Thanks guys! I wouldn't mind one or two more!

I should have mentioned ... One of Sammy's former Assistant Server's is "I Made Swastika" ... first name is pronounced "E-mod-A." His last name bears no relation to the 1930's genocide in Germany ... rather ... in the Asian culture ... it means happiness ... family and good fortune. Hitler took what was once a long-standing, positive symbol and meaning, and corrupted it in the minds of most of the world. Hitler even modified the Asian symbol ... so please do not be offended by the name, or think any negative thoughts. "I Made" is awesome!

We had Mindaugas Saddis (Minda) as our server in September and Margaret Lee (Maggie) from Trinidad as our assistant server. They were both great.
