cruisegirl1 Posted February 9, 2018 #1051 Share Posted February 9, 2018 Lots of my favorite drinks have two alcohols:Martinis Manhattans Cosmopolitans Margheritas ..... I had read that these were allowed. Are they? I have also received many of these listed drinks either in the C&A lounges or at random bars ( using vouchers) around the ship. Not sure why the previous poster had problem. M Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Milwaukee Eight Posted February 9, 2018 #1052 Share Posted February 9, 2018 This "no two alcohols" is bogus. Sent from my iPhone using Forums You know, it is something that Royal may be rolling out soon. Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare island lady Posted February 9, 2018 #1053 Share Posted February 9, 2018 Good to know, as I assumed it would be fleet wide!:rolleyes: Will check that and, if vouchers are not allowed in the MDR, can stop somewhere along the way!;) Yeah...RCI: "Really Consistently Inconsistent". ;p;) That's what we do also...just walk in with a glass of wine in our hand.

Rare island lady Posted February 9, 2018 #1054 Share Posted February 9, 2018 We hope you both have a great cruise.Have you had your boot removed? hope your rehabilitation is complete. Sent from my Kestrel using Forums mobile app Thanks! Looking forward to it! :) Alas..no..still in the awful boot. Additional Xrays shows it is still healing...but very...very slowly. :( Welcome to the age where nothing likes to heal as fast as it used to. :o Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare island lady Posted February 9, 2018 #1055 Share Posted February 9, 2018 We sailed on the Oasis 1-21-18. Were you on this cruise? I know of two Pinnacles that are the sweetest people you will ever meet on a cruise. And can't wait to sail with you two again in December! :D We have many "Pineapple" friends who are very dear to us. :hearteyes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare island lady Posted February 9, 2018 #1057 Share Posted February 9, 2018 Willie plays the ukulele and guitar. But he does not have his guitar on board, just the ukulele. He has thrown in his personal touches for bir th days and anniversaries. Sent from my SM-N950U using Tapatalk Was Willie on EN a few years ago?

Rare xpcdoojk Posted February 9, 2018 #1058 Share Posted February 9, 2018 You really think a Ships HD has significant input to Royal decision making on removing DL for revenue producing area? Sent from my iPhone using Forums Have you eaten at Wonderland? So, if you like a good steak, then Chops is a great repeat. However on Wonderland it is wierd cups that are filled with smoke until the remove the lid. You get an interesting bite of something, and the cool smoke effect. Next time, you get a bite of food, but the smoke effect doesn't surprise which makes the oddness of the dish stand out the second time around. It is more of a novelty experience to me, and if they don't mix it up, it quickly becomes an over priced repetition. JC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare island lady Posted February 9, 2018 #1059 Share Posted February 9, 2018 Wow -- that would be something if they let the DL stay a DL instead of converting it into Wonderland. That's what I understood also Sherri...I thought Wonderland was not that popular on ships that have them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
simpsol Posted February 9, 2018 #1060 Share Posted February 9, 2018 Liberty Hmm - never had an issue with a martini, on any ship at any bar for the past few years. Sailed 3 cruises just last month on 2 different ships, and again no issue with a martini. Would you mind telling us what ship and when you sailed. As we frequent the ship bars rather than the D lounge or Concierge lounge ( for ship that still have one) I'll want to be prepared. Thx M Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

simpsol Posted February 9, 2018 #1062 Share Posted February 9, 2018 We aren’t sure either. As I said we went to guest services and were told the waiter was correct to decline our drink requests and instead charge us for them I have also received many of these listed drinks either in the C&A lounges or at random bars ( using vouchers) around the ship.

We like Chops But not for their Steaks. Mine are much better on our grill and open flame. Chops steaks are a bit of a let down but they have other good meals. Same with Giovanni and Izumi. Izumi May be a one stop every other cruise. I believe Symphony has a Wonderland as well. Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't get me wrong, I enjoyed both the meals at Wonderland, but it is like my Chef's table experience, I don't need to repeat it. My Chef's table experience had very good food and tolerable wine, but when it lasts over 4 hours and the people at your table are a complete boor then this experience is a living HE double Hockey sticks. We went as 2 couples the ladies quit before dessert which should completely illustrate my point.:eek: I will never do Chef's table again even if it was free, unless it was just dinner for my party or with the Captain. :halo: I refuse to pay for bad sushi on a cruise ship since, I can get wonderful sushi on land, and I feel better about it on land....:evilsmile: JC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WeatherFx Posted February 9, 2018 #1068 Share Posted February 9, 2018 Oh please, give me a break... If they booked an inside room and need a place to hang out, fine, spend all day in there when most people are elsewhere, but to go in by 4:00, so you they can get a "prime" space, and not leave until 8:00 is a bit much. Oh please, give me a break... :rolleyes: there goes that superiority complex again. An inside cabin dweller has just as much right to sit in the DL in "prime" space and as long as those who book suites. They earned their tier level, their money is just as green as yours and are just as loyal - perhaps even more so. You come across the same as those you seem to have disdain for.

grapau27 Posted February 9, 2018 #1069 Share Posted February 9, 2018 So, what about Chops, Giovanni, Izumi? Do you revisit any specialty Dinning? Wonderland seems to be unique but is still a up charge Speciality. Sent from my iPhone using Forums We did Giovanni's 3 times and chops once on Freedom in June during our 7 day cruise.

Rare John&LaLa Posted February 9, 2018 #1072 Share Posted February 9, 2018 If you are using the actual cruise critic app, then I would highly recommend switching over and using Tapatalk as your app. The cruise critic app posts pictures at a ridiculously small size, and they are almost illegible if you actually try and look at them.... whereas the Tapatalk app usually posts quite amazing pictures. The Forums app was posting nice pictures for the past several months. Sent from my HTC One_M8 using Forums mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
