It's acceptable/eatable early afternoon, pretty good as a pre-dinner snack and one of the best meals I've ever ate on a ship at 2:00 am. 😇😉 Either the dough gets better with age or they must have better pizza chefs working the late shift. That's the only thing I can think of. 😊 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s about 2-3 years old. The old stadium was prettier and had a lot more character, but it’s nice not to be super-hot during games anymore. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure their attendance is a whole lot better since they built the new stadium, it's one of the reasons they went the free agent route for the first 2 players in their lineup. Without the new stadium they never could have afforded those 2 guys. Edited August 14, 2022 by Jimbo 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't disagree with this statement. It seems like for every really good pizza place, there is at least one not-so-good. I won't say bad as I don't think I've every had a bad slice. Except in High School where they tried to pass off a piece of cardboard with a hint of ketchup & some cheese-like material as pizza. 😉 Surprisingly, the "99 cent Fresh Pizza" slice joints are better than expect as long as you don't mind standing at a counter or eating it on the run. Which is what I usually would do as I race to get on the last train out of Grand Central. They've been around for 10-15 years at least and just recently upped the price to a $1.25 a slice due to - what else - inflation and supply chain issues. Haven't changed the name however. They have handwritten sign by the register saying the price increase is "temporary". haha. We'll see about that. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like the ambiance and the chocolate globe, but not a fan of the food that does not look like food. LOL😁 I haven't tried it, but I have no great interest in doing so, either. From what others have said and the various videos and photos I've seen, it just doesn't seem like my cup of tea. If it were free, I might try it once, but even with the D+ BOGO offer, it just doesn't call to me. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have no idea of what pizza places you tried ,I can tell you n pizza places I have ever tried in Brooklyn are way better than rccl. Most pizza in Dallas are way better than rccl and of course those in Italy are way better but you are not Italian and never been to Italy. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since you're probably familiar with the area, New City Pizza and Rocco's also in New City are the best for pizza IMHO. Food, of course, is subjective but I can't see Sorrento's on a cruise ship ever coming close in texture and taste. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Depends on the cabin and ship. We've rarely had an issue with keeping things cool enough in a long time. Even on VY currently the fridge is keeping my wife's soy milk plenty cold. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I lasted one whole week from when I posted this until when I emailed my travel agent to add a third cruise to the two I have booked in January on @Ocean Boy's beloved Allure out of Galveston. Technically, I only lasted six days, since I sent the email just before midnight. It took six days and one hour for me to cave. Yeah, I know I have a problem. Hey, it could be worse -- at least I'm not addicted to something illegal. 3 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The bunk room design on The VP suites is much further away and the curtain works. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
