Shhh....we've been eating with the masses at the buffet. Fine dining isn't for us. I'll be writing my thoughts later this week.

I'm in the Mera yc right now. Maybe it's me...but disappointed with food, as compared to a year ago. No more customized pizza delivery to pool deck...no more freshly grilled fish at lunch buffet. I has pizza in the main buffet...and it just wasn't "the best pizza ever". I don't want to hijack this thread....will write my own thread when I get home.

Mine too.... Anyone care to give us "old folks" the details, or point us in the right direction

@Georgia_PeachesDH gets up all night long (transparency...so d I). We bring tea lights. They're battery operated....and about 2 dozen for less than $10 on Amazon or temu.

Where are you getting these statistics? Scandinavians are known for being tall, thin and blonde....and athletic.

Just my 2 cents... We are currently on the Mera...2nd time in yacht club, third time on the ship. Anyway...yesterday was a port day and we missed our YC poolside buffet due to an excursion. We went to the main buffet.... besides the pizza we both had absolutely delicious quinoa and chicken. As far as quality of food....MSC is a great value. (Not to get into a debate...but the chicken/quinoa tasted much better than the YC dining room food...to both of us.)

I'm on the Meraviglia right now. The comedian was joking about all the kids on board last week, and what a zoo it was....1600 under 18!

You said you were in contact with your TA. If anyone should have "serviced you", it should have been the TA. That's what they're getting paid for.

They are giving you the fare back and a FCC credit of 50%...yes, only $250 but you paid only $500. Traveling is always riskly...things go wrong. That's what insurance if for. I don't know what else you expected MSC to do?

Yes. .... home of the famous Rao's. Some of the homes there still look like Italian villas with marble in the gardens. We used to go up there a lot.

That's gonna be my new motto!

Thanks for all the info. We'll stick to YC....and supplement with pizza! Never heard anyone complain about MSC pizza...

In general...our "not for tourists" Mexican restaurants have servers that don't speak English, don't serve tacos etc...and spice it up...generally about 116th Street. I won't say more....

Oy...I really don't like sushi... 😞 On the Mera...the restaurant is named Kaito Teppanyaki. If it's "no"...I'm just as happy with unlimited pizza for 11 days.

Thanks! See reply above....I can take the subway anywhere and in just minutes have authentic cuisine. However, I think we'll give Teppanyaki a try. I have never done one of those...might be an interesting experience (and I can always get pizza)!
