Has anyone posted a photo of a solo cabin?

Gosh, this ship looks so beautiful!

No reason given why they closed the buffet on Deck 8. Lots of rumors and speculation. One is too few passengers to warrent opening it up. Another is maintenance problems. But it is open for breakfast and lunch. This is the main buffet. The one on Deck 16 is open. But menu is limited to pizza and a couple of items.

I was told by a chap in a white uniform with bars and braid that the food is the same in the Deck 16 buffet, and the Deck 8 buffet was closed for dinner because they (the ship's management) wanted to see how Deck 16 would work out with more people in it. I also heard that the Deck 8 evening buffet was in use more than the management expected.

In my opinion, the general food quality on the Seaside compared to other lines I have sailed is lower and boring. And Deck 16 buffet's quality and variety are not equal to Deck 8.

Overcooked vegetables, the same7 item salad bar every night, overcooked proteins - these are not shake-down cruise issues.

Side note: the room stewards, bar staff, and junior kitchen and wait staff are fabulous and are working their tails off.
