logan25 Posted September 28, 2021 #26 Share Posted September 28, 2021 (edited) Talking about misrepresentation…pizza in the buffet. We noted two versions grossly mislabeled. One labeled as “sausages” was topped with hot dogs according to my husband’s taste buds. And one labeled “frankfurters” was actually breakfast sausage. We concur about the food. First MSC cruise for my husband did not meet his expectations. I did, however, enjoy the donuts with pink icing.

Rare styles27 Posted September 28, 2021 #27 Share Posted September 28, 2021 Okay I guess one positive is I won’t gain any weight on this cruise 😬 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Someone is very confused on the ship 😆 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"Sausage" in Europe is often Vienna sausage like things. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The same thing happened to us for breakfast on two occasions. No, I didn't want a hotdog for breakfast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did you have to wear the white wristband showing that you’re vaccinated or have they done away with that because vaccines are mandatory for 12 and over? We had NFL on Sunday and Monday on ESPN2 both in room and sports bar. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However dress code not enforced. The dress code for Elegant menu night was listed as casual, so, it was "enforced", meaning you could wear whatever you liked. Some wore formal dress, most went casual. I'll contact Steve and see if he has pictures of the Galaxie menu, or his dinner. I'm not a sushi fan, so, I don't know the difference between sushi, sashimi, etc. I'll try to find out what was available. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dexddd Posted October 1, 2021 #36 Share Posted October 1, 2021 So with help from DD, I recall now. First day we did re-tour of Divinia because we kept confusing it with Seaside. Galaxy Disco has sushi and sashimi but I don't think I have pic of menu. When we went through, it wasn't open. I thought it was strange to have that in the disco but maybe when things are hopping that is what people want. From what I could tell, the old Eataly is just a wine bar yet the second time we went through there, there was a pizza coming out yet no one was eating there. All gelato from what we saw was closed down. By pool bar, smoking side, behind non-existent gelato stand was a soft-serve ice cream machine and we did see people with soft serve.

mimi7ccr Posted October 2, 2021 #38 Share Posted October 2, 2021 We were on that same cruise on Divina and do agree that the food was just so-so to "meh." However, we ate in Butcher's Cut for my birthday 9/23 and my filet was awesome. In fact the whole meal was really really good. DH had the lamb chops and said they were excellent. Several decks of cabins were closed off between the mid-ship and back elevators, which made it very difficult for my mobility-challenged hubby, but we still enjoyed the cruise overall.

Happy to answer any questions you might have! Hi, MM Thanks for sharing thoughts and info for our upcoming sailing on Divina. Guess we should pack the travel size creole seasoning and tabasco based on the food reveiw. Did you happen to notice if there are any reefs worth snorkeling on Ocean Cay? MSC also shows shows fire pits burning at night which looks nice did that take place. THANKS, Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Morgsmom Posted October 5, 2021 Author #40 Share Posted October 5, 2021 Hi Dave, The food was of poor quality and even more poorly executed (IMO). No amount of seasoning would help. Hopefully it was "restarting pains" and your experience will be better. On OC, there were no reefs that I saw, but there are some "sunken items" near the lighthouse area with lots of coral and fish congregating. Yes, there are fire pits light at night. We watched the lighthouse show from our balcony and didn't bother to venture out again, but those that did said they enjoyed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WatchhillDave Posted October 8, 2021 #41 Share Posted October 8, 2021 THANKS, MM May have go off menu and tip the wait staff for extra quality food . We have had friends do this in the past and you would be amazed at what shows at the table. We have never felt comfortable doing such things. Maybe this will be cruise we try it.Will see after 1st night in main dining room. Maybe just a restart issue like you said. The pandemic has made all food outlets reduce there their menu items. Thanks Again, Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kidless Posted October 10, 2021 #43 Share Posted October 10, 2021 With the low price of cruises and the inflation and shortages on groceries I am not surprised to hear quality might be lowered! 😞 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
