I don't doubt that on the high price lines you can get a special dinner prepared for you on your suite balcony if you are willing to pay the price. If you have cruised at all, you know that you just don't pick up the phone and order grilled chicken prepared on your balcony at the whim of the passenger.Yes, some of the balconies may be large enough to use a grille. That's not the issue. Grilling on a ships balcony is not exactly a good idea. Can you imagine just how long ( or short ) a time period would elapse before someone was badly burned or a ship was set afire? I personally don't want to be on a ship with someone using a barbecue grille .Some things should be looked at from a common sense point of view. The ship provides all the food anyone could possibly eat in without people bringing their own grilles; What's next-- a crockpot or a pressure cooker ? Hot plate for breakfast and grilled cheese sandwiches--- no problem -- just ring up room service and tell them you're preparing to cook out and you want to order a pack of brats, 2 lbs. hamburger, cheese, and oh yes--- need a pot roast that you can put in the crock pot this morning so it will be done by 2 pm this after noon. Yes sir--- we'll bring it all right up. Sure.Why not bring one of those outdoor fireplaces that you could light up on the balcony and cozy up to it after dark?And sure--- that last photo is a private balcony-- who's kidding whom on this one. :wave :wave
