Sailed Zaandam July 6th through July 20th

In general, on all the HAL ships, I really enjoy lunch in the Pinnacle Grill lunch, moreso than dinner.  But as mentioned before, the one on Zaandam has no windows and I think is better suited for dinner.  I love the lamb chops.   Don't eat the bread!  You won't be able to enjoy the rest of your dinner, lol.  They serve a big hunk of warm cheesy bread.  The hanging bacon is interesting.
We were very disappointed in the MDR food - one evening we  had a pot roast dinner that was too tough to cut.  In 2 weeks I think I only really enjoyed one meal there.

Thanks for the input. I may have to rethink having lunch in the PG. Perhaps dinner would be a better option.

It's been many years since we have been on a HAL ship and I don't recall much about the food. Anyway, I am

sure we will be able to find something that we will enjoy.

We were on the July 6 cruise, and in one of the tender ports we saw a very large ship docked.  Its name was Aida.  Also, we ate in the main dining room every evening and thought we had excellent service and food.  We thought Sidney was a small, quite charming town; however, it is very human and okay to have different impressions about the same place and cruise.
