Real ceramic plates in Horizon Court

[Cobra427SC]

A few years ago, one could dine for dinner in Café Caribe with real ceramic plates and white tablecloths. Now it's "melmac/melamine" across the fleet. Having that extra ambiance, which can't be that bigga deal, was really nice when you wanted to eat upstairs. Does anyone know why they changed courses? We really loved that option...you could find a quiet table, almost "mood lighting" and decent plates with white tablecloths made for a pretty romantic setting. steve

We cruised several Celebrity and Princess cruises B2B in early 2005 and I wrote an extensive comparison. I recall that, at that time, Princess was already using melamine in the buffet.

Yes, cost savings.
