What is the fee to dine at Jamies?

[nelblu]

Please can you people bicker about food on another thread? thx

 

You've got to be kidding. What are you some sort of a censor Czar. RCL announced DD with such fanfare and now it is not living up to expectation. I'm not interested in what you think, this is an open forum and the OP is giving a birds-eye view of the ship, entertainment, cabins and of course the dining aspect.

Tracy, thanks for posting your pictures on Shutterfly. I see they still don't grasp the idea of bigger benches in the accessible bathrooms. Can I say what a brilliant job the reporters are doing under extreme pressure of next to useless wifi. Keep up the good work and looking forward to more reviews and photos. So so pleased for Greg and Eve. I know he put so much into his moment. Regards, Daz. :D

View from E1 cabin on 7th

 

 

Thanks for the picture! Do you have any of an E1 inside showing the layout?

I have booked these rooms on three different cruises! Thanks!

Will post some E1 photos later.

 

Here's american icon menu in case not posted yet

Podgeandrodge what room did you take the balcony photo from? We will be in 6658 on deck 6 and I have been concerned with what kind of obstruction we will have and your room seems to be in a similar area just on deck 7.

Yep, just above you, I'll take a couple of photos later to give you a better idea, obviously you might more obstruction being on deck 6 but I don't think it'll be bad in any way.

My mate has a normal cabin, I have to say I prefer the E1. It's not as long, but wider so lots of room and wide balcony.

[Mrs Cigar King]

Thank you to whomever posted the cigar area.

There are some pictures on the North Star Bar in the shutterfly album. If anyone has some of the seating area, especially if there are any covered sections, I would appreciate it.

With all the lovely reviews of the restaurants, I'm going to try to change one of our reservations to Jamie's Italian. It made me hungry just reading it.

 

Please continue to have a lovely time! And thanks for being so generous with your time on board.

I'd like to know about the accessibility of 270 for those in a wheelchair or scooter. From the pictures that I've seen it looks like there are many staircases in the lower level but I did not see any ramps. Also, does the upper level connect to the lower level by ramp?

 

If someone has the time would you please count all the loose throw pillows on all the sofas and chairs on the ship? :rolleyes:

 

Thanks so much!

 

Hey Denise! Hope your continuing to do well since Allure. This might be a good question for the special needs group at RC. I know their email is on the crown and anchor site. But this is a good enough question someone will probably make note and report.

I also booked my dinner reservations based on what was on the menus. I have Crohn's and need to be careful of what I eat. Even for land based restaurants, I always check out the menu on a new place before I would go. I would be very disappointed if I went to a restaurant on land or at sea if the menu was changed.

[Just The 3 Of Us]

I just want to thank all the contributing "reporters" for taking the time away from your VACATION so that you can share your experience with us! What an amazing job you are doing -

THANK YOU ALL SO VERY MUCH!

This is a new dining concept and new restaurants. I am not going to lock myself into some particular place based on some menus that may, and likely will, change as they fine-tune the offerings. I reserved one night in each restaurant. After that, we will reserve further nights on-board based on which we like best.

There is a covered area at the Northstar bar but it's just over the bar itself, not over the loungers. I'll have to see if I can find a pic to put on Shutterfly. I was huddling under it yesterday when I was waiting in the Northstar queue and it started to mist rain. lol.

Obviously Quantum has some unique dining choices. My guess is that getting the right provisions to England for the TA cruise may have been an issue. Once she is "home" in Bayonne, perhaps they will have the correct food items to match the website menus.

Thanks Tracy. I'll keep an eye on the album. We have a lot of friends we hang out with in the cigar lounges on the Voyager class ships and have been looking forward to seeing them on the Quantum. Cigars don't like to get wet so hopefully we won't have an issue.

Sorry to add to this...but...one of our cigar friends uses a scooter. Is this area accessable?

Why would they bring provisions tO England when they have their own warehouses over here to supply their ships whilst in UK?

 

I know they do for some items like your wondeful beef but if they can source ingredients over here and save money they will.

Can someome give the name of the Concierge?????

There are ramps along the sides but you can only get down a certain way. you can't get all the way down to floor level. also, there is an accessible elevator to get up to the upper level in Two70.

 

and just for you... 13,428.25. :eek::D

Hi Bill...I got the answer in a previous post so I'll tell you the rest on our Allure thread. :)

Joanna, just wondering if they are they still loading 3 drinks on your card each evening that you can use in various bars? That is if you don't want to go to the DL or CL.

 

Great review and pictures........thanks so much!

[carpman&Mrs]

I see there has been previous pics posted of a DO CABIN obstructed by lifeboats. Does anyone know if there have been any of the ones blocked by davits that are classed 75% obstructed?
