I've heard complaints about the GDR being cold ever since Renaissance days, but I never felt that way. So while I would never say "balderdash" to these comments, I will say it is an individual thing. By all means bring along a jacket or other cover-up, because you won't know until you are there how YOU will react.

I always take a cardigan to dinner

it depends on who is in charge of the thermostat

sometimes it is too cool other times too warm

go prepared :D

We went to the special buffet in the Grand Dining Room offered on our second (and last) sea day on our Mayan Mystique cruise last month. It looked lovely but was a total bust for me because almost everything offered was either pork or fish. I am allergic to fish and do not eat pork but the three special offerings being sliced to order were salmon en croute, sliced pork loin and Parma ham. The other dishes laid out on the tables almost all were or contained fish as well.

 

I asked one of the GDR captains whether there was any turkey, chicken or beef on offer or available or could be obtained for me but after a lengthy wait he said that there was none at all. For me the lack of variety in the offerings was very surprising.
