refted Posted March 30, 2013 #1 Share Posted March 30, 2013 Just off of the Eastern Caribbean 3/23, mostly good but some bad. More detailed review to follow. Pinnacle was VERY disappointing, BB King Band was better than anticipated. I will be putting some brief videos on YouTube, but I must warn that the lineup will be changing soon. Had a midship, mid level cabin and still felt a great deal of vibration. Tamarind was incredible- ate there first and last nights and once for lunch. Their service put Pinnacle's to shame to. How is that????? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare kazu Posted March 30, 2013 #2 Share Posted March 30, 2013 Looking forward to your review. We've been lucky as we have been happy with our PG dinners (haven't been on the Eurodam though), however, the Tamarind is a shining star as far as we are concerned. HAL has really gotten this restaurant right:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DFD1 Posted March 30, 2013 #3 Share Posted March 30, 2013 We noticed the vibration, but did not find it a problem. We gave up on the Pinnacle grill a long time ago. Love the Tamarind. Nothing is perfect. Hope you had a good cruise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shsdawg Posted March 30, 2013 #4 Share Posted March 30, 2013 We spent 10 days on the Eurodam in the Baltic last summer The only place we felt vibration was at Tamarind. It wasn't bad there either. I agree about the food at Tamarind, it is incredible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sapete Posted March 30, 2013 #5 Share Posted March 30, 2013 It's a ship, not a building. Vibration and motion are natural and one of the reasons I enjoy cruising! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frankc98376 Posted March 30, 2013 #6 Share Posted March 30, 2013 Ahhhhhh, memories of the former Nieuw Amsterdam an my plate "dancing" off of the Lido table or everyone holding onto their drinks in the Crows Nest to keep them on the tables :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Vict0riann Posted March 30, 2013 #7 Share Posted March 30, 2013 That's nothing! On our trip to the Antarctic (small ship) the waitstaff had to wet down the tablecloths to prevent everything from sliding off the tables. They couldn't put saucers under the cups, and they handed you the cutlery to go with each plate, which you then couldn't set down or it would go flying! The wet tablecloth thing was amazing.:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
George C Posted March 30, 2013 #8 Share Posted March 30, 2013 Surprised about the Pinnacle we had dinner there 3 nights on last cruise and booked 3 nights on next cruise, but not on your ship, what was disappointing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How is that????? We were on the same cruise and I can say the only time I noticed any vibration was up in the crows nest...and as others have mentioned I felt it was part of cruising!! If there is no vibration you might as well be on land somewhere! We also did Tamarind twice ... Both for dinner! We couldn't get a lunch reservation but were able to book same day for our preferred time (6:30/7). DH sad he would have eaten their every night...it was well worth the $15 surcharge!

Camlaura- I think that you got off on 3/23; we just got off today so I think we were on different cruises. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
