Rare MicCanberra Posted January 28, 2018 #26 Share Posted January 28, 2018 Why have the cover charge eateries then Mic, if they are for the select few, then no fear of 'overbooking.' Let us go back to the days of MDR and buffet. Well in my early days, there was not even a buffet, save for the odd deck buffet. Talking about the 60's, 1960's NOT 1860's, lol.:') The demand is still high as they provide options to the MDR and especially the buffet. As for the 60's I wouldn't know but I think presently and the future are the good day for cruising, rather than what it was even 20 years ago.

NSWP Posted January 28, 2018 #27 Share Posted January 28, 2018 They can get burgers in the buffet for free, in addition JRs is a dining experience, a meal / snack with a show. Chuck the Noodle House out and put in JR's, get those burgers going !!!:p I have friends and their family sailing on Ovation this afternoon, 8 nights, Adelaide, Hobart, not sure where else. I will get their opinions. They told me it was a full ship, plenty of kids. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare MicCanberra Posted January 28, 2018 #28 Share Posted January 28, 2018 It's kind of crazy but I'm feeling pressure to buy into the specialty restaurants - it's as if I'll be missing out? I have bought a night at Chops Grille for a decent price (and because the menu suits us) but seriously, there is so much food on a cruise ship without spending extra. I'm no great foodie and am happy with the normal food offered as long as there are good, healthy choices. I like going to a specialty restaurant for an occasion but do not see the need to go just for the sake of it. As you say, there is lots of good food without having to pay extra. That said, I do and have bought a dining package but it is for several occasions.:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stupindous Posted January 29, 2018 #33 Share Posted January 29, 2018 Why has no one mentioned the SeaPlex Doghouse on Ovation? Awesome sauce hotdogs - complimentary My daughter and I still talk of those days [emoji4] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare MicCanberra Posted January 29, 2018 #34 Share Posted January 29, 2018 It was okay and being complimentary is great but there is much better food on board.:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Big_M Posted January 29, 2018 #35 Share Posted January 29, 2018 Agreed, they were okay. The last cruise I was on when I went they only had 2 choices left, and it just seemed a bit half hearted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wife and I would go up every day for lunch, I'd get the burger and she'd either get a burger or a burrito. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
