My first Carnival cruise in 1999, found the menu to be too sophisticated in language for my table mates(and the food did not lie up to its names), and when I asked for different side items than were listed for the entree I wanted they would bring me the set plate with my entree, and the set plate with the other side item...just no entree! So I had fairly low expectations when I sailed on Elation last April. But I was pleasantly surprised...The food was much better, and they were really flexible. Plus they had the alternative menu, which was not presented 8 years ago...EM
