Any outdoor dining on the Jade?

Can anyone tell me if there is a place (or places) to eat outside on the NCL Jade? We are sailing in April and I love to eat al fresco at sea! Although, maybe it will be too cold. Thanks

There is the Great Outdoors buffet at the aft.

 

On other Jewel ships they occasionally have a barbecue on the pool deck. I don't know whether this happens on the Jade, but it's possible.

It was our favorite spot on the Jade...any time of day. Beautiful views. You can bring out your food from the main buffet or use the smaller buffet right next to the seating outside.

We were on the Jade in January and they did cook out on the deck a few times.

Thanks the replies - we're newbies on NCL and not sure what's what. It will be nice to eat out!

There is also a burger/hot dog bar near the pool.

Apart from the Great Outdoors, the Jade also offers Topsiders Bar and Grill on deck near the Pools as mentioned above, as well as Bali Hai Bar and Grill one level up, overlooking the pool area. Both these bars offer limited casual grilled food and are only open at certain times so make sure you check your dailies for schedules.

On our first cruise on Jade The Italian restaurant took over a portion of the Great Outdoors in the evening, but I can't remember if that was the case last April.

So does the Jade have a good Italian restaurant?
