Normal
FOOD...there were quite a few food venues to choose from...all of the ones that I sampled were good to excellent.1. main dining- we originally had the late seating, then remembered that the grandson goes to sleep at 830pm...bad idea to try to keep a 14 month up past the bed time...we tried to change and were informed that early was full. they took our names and the first night we ate at late seating. defintely a bad idea about the g-son...he didn't make it past the bread and his dad took him upstairs...dinner service was great the first night...they even gave us a full entree to take up to dad...nice touch. The next day we had a card with early dining...nice job dining staff...however we did experience a drop in service...our team as having a rough week. they just couldnt seem to get it together. Thursday was pretty brutal...they were on showtime and we had just got our main course...they were cool and didn't rush us out of there...it seemed the whole dining room was a little behind. I and the wife are good natured so we just let it flow and didn't get upset enjoyed all of the food in main dining. If you are going to get upset over someone not jumping through 20 foot hoops to place food at just the right time and angle on the table and having the right fork at the right time just roll with it or do the buffets. they had different buffets at different stations every meal time. Burgers and pizza were great so of course they were the hardest to get at peak times. Really wish that the pasta bar was open all day for lunch and dinner. Sushi and turkey wraps were always popular and the 5 layer carrot cake at the coffee shop was the bomb. Dining is what you make of it so some will be pissed at the service they get some will not...enjoy it because you don't have to clean up..just shovel it in and walk it off. I had heard that Carnival changed executive chefs...same most of the same meals I had 2 years ago...nice touch was the standbys everyday if you didn't like what was on the menu...flat-iron steak, mahi-mahi very tasty...more to follow
