Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5
I was 18 when I took this cruise and my mind was blown. I loved dressing up for the fine dining format in the dining room, I had never done anything like that. And the room service is what really stuck with me. I’ll never forget being that age and coming to the realization that I could order whatever I wanted from the menu, and as much as I wanted! I grew up feeling like room service was out of reach for me, but on a cruise, I felt like a king. It was incredible. Not necessarily the quality of food (although it was much better then, than now), but the service was life changing.
