[ramrax4]

was it worth it and would you do it again and if not why? Did you get the cookbook and picture also, if someone knows what is on the menu that would be great! Thanks for the help:)

We were on the Spirit this past March and did the Chef's Table one night. Short answer is yes it was worth it and we will do it again on our next cruise. It was a great experience and a lot of fun. I will try to throw in a few pictures for you. We had an easy going group with no ill tempers. I heard absolutely zero complaints during or after the event.

We did get a group photo as you can see and a signed copy of the Recipe Book. It was all you can drink wine (red and white)

We had appetizers in the galley but we could not take pictures. We also saw how to make Warm Chocolate Melting Cake and got a tour of the galley when in full swing.

 

We had a few more appetizers at the table.

Dessert was a variety of items, all of them good.

The event took place in the Disco on the dance floor. There is a side door that leads into the galley. It was quiet and the servers came and went without issue.

 

As stated earlier, we will do it again this February on the Miracle since we are cruising with another couple. We came in hungry and left STUFFED! It was more food than we could eat... BUT I tried! As for the cost, some may say it is not worth it. Our group would not agree with that. I have paid more money for a steak dinner at a very classy restaurant with less service and wine at our home town. Hope this helps in our decision making.
