Econom405 Posted October 28, 2013 #203 Share Posted October 28, 2013 Enjoying reliving this cruise through your pictures and thoughts. We too felt this was our best cruise ever. It was the most relaxing, fun cruise we have done by far. Not sure if it was the length of the trip or the friendliness of everyone we met, but it sure was great!

Beachgal528 Posted October 28, 2013 #204 Share Posted October 28, 2013 We have never cruise NCL & are use to CCL dinner menus... some nights are better for other in the dining room. There is typically a night of steak and another night of lobster. Were there any nights like this on NCL... we want to book a dinner in the moderno but don't want to book it on one of these nights.

Beachgal528 Posted October 28, 2013 #205 Share Posted October 28, 2013 also... on CCL around dinner, they have "photo ops" where photographers are set up to take pictures with backgrounds... do they do this on NCL? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks! Yes....the first night on NCL is Lobster night. I'm not sure about steak night as there wasn't any Filet Mignon served. They did have a few good steaks though and anything beats Carnival's Flat Iron Steaks. also... on CCL around dinner, they have "photo ops" where photographers are set up to take pictures with backgrounds... do they do this on NCL? They take plenty of pictures....usually in the atrium....or at dinner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They did have a few good steaks though and anything beats Carnival's Flat Iron Steaks. They take plenty of pictures....usually in the atrium....or at dinner. I had to laugh. I had one of those FI steaks. Left a lot to be desired. But our choc lava cake or whatever it is called was even worse. It was like uncooked cake batter. Stan, the Maitre D made sure we got a cooked one later. Never tried another steak in the MDR, but I must say Carnival's Chef Table was on par with NCL. I enjoyed them both. Guess I would rather have NO steak than a BAD steak. So maybe that was a blessing for you. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk - now Free Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
