Ship experiences

Food and Dining

3 out of 5

Specialty restaurant Bayou steak and seafood very disappointing $40 a head plus $12 for an extra course.Don,t mind the extra charge but we could have had the same food that night in the MDR.Sabatini would have been a much better choice.

Horizon Court

Ok if you arrive early food is nice and fresh

Provence Dining Room

Quite good food ok.with the exception of breakfast not sure if the food would have been better with more experienced chefs a bit poor no toast chippilata sausages like rocks scrambled eggs like packet mix ? Not quite princess of the past.
