Sin City still around in Celebrity Central? Any scheduled comedian/comedy night? Did you notice if any lunches were offered on sea days at specialties? Did you happen to visit Persian Gardens? Thanks

Just off the 11/14 sailing. No more Sin City, but lots of comedy - two different nights of two shows each, plus one late-night "adult" comic. We went to all bu to all but the blue one (not opposed, but other things to do), and both were quite funny.

 

Tuscan offered a lunch with music one day, and we hugely enjoyed our seafood lunch at the Porch (used our complimentary suite dinner, as we liked Luminae too much to want to miss it). I believe Murano may have had a lunch (open and lit up one day, but didn't investigate).

 

We used the Persian Gardens daily - seemed more crowded than a year ago, but manageable. In general, the spa seemed understaffed (frequently only one person on the desk, leading to lines and some grumpiness from those waiting). Not much in the way of hard-sell, which is nice, but somehow not nearly the nice Canyon Ranch atmosphere one feels, for example, on the QM2. It was the first cruise we didn't feel tempted to have a massage, in part because the staff seemed stressed, which isn't really what one's looking for. I felt badly for them.

Sin City has been gone for about one year. There are "guest" comedians in the Main Theater and it is hit or miss. One of them does a late night show there.

 

Each Specialty Restaurant has a lunch once during the cruise. I believe the price was like $25 per person. Be aware that the menus are streamlined i.e. some of the more expensive items are not available.

Do you know if staff at Cafe al Bacio were refusing people their food items unless they purchased a drink? There was a thread or two about that recently and just wondered what the current status was on Reflection. Thanks!

I tried to use a USB without success. The TV system is Apple powered.

Food was free (and delicious). You did not have to order/purchase a drink.:)
