Ship experiences

Food and Dining

4 out of 5
dinning rooms, restaurants were awesome and servers were fantastic. we were party of 12 people and 10 were Vegetarians. every night diner they have Indian veg options. basically it has 2/3 veg dishes with rice. I would recommend to add Indian bread (Naan or Roti) and rice should be either Basamati or Sona Massorri. Breakfast for three days they have Masala Dosa and it was good, specially chutney was really good. Maybe you can another veg breakfast options like Poha or Upama. For Non-veg eaters you can get Chicken curries or Lamb/Chicken Biryani if you asked in advance. not a part of standard menu.

Glad you enjoyed it. I agree that disconnecting from the phone and internet while on vacation is a great idea. If there is a true emergency, there Are ways for people to contact the ship or for you to call home, if truly needed. Sadly most people can’t put their phone down for one hour, let alone for one week.
