Ship experiences

Food and Dining

4 out of 5
food is very good. we were on hal koningsdam in grand food was awful except in special restaurants. food in mdr is very good on ncl. downside to specialty restaurants is you get one appetizer which is actual appetizer,soup,and salad. so if you want shrimp cocktail and soup or salad you have to pay additional. cheap out.
