Review summary

I was pleasantly surprised, everything was much better than I thought it was going to be on a lower priced cruise. The lack of green cooked vegetables in the buffet was the only problem.

Embarkation

Easy

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

4 out of 5

Assigned dinner time and assigned dining room table don't work for me, so I ate most meals in the buffet, and a few times in Specialty Restaurants. The buffet was generally OK, but there were virtually no cooked green vegetables available. Any time there was an extra charge for something, it was of very high quality.

I'd be interested in what country you live in. Probably Canada. I rarely see a cooked green veg in restaurants in USA. And then i would leave them on plate. Just a cultural difference!! Lol

Agree on the dining policy. When they can accommodate, they will switch you to Anytime Dining if you ask. Have inquired of this myself on this ship.
