bitob Posted November 29, 2023 #206 Share Posted November 29, 2023 Another heads up both prime 7 and chartreuse have been open for lunch on sea days. If you want a table you have to line up at 1145! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I went to see Sunset Boulevard last week at the Savoy theatre in London. Nicole Scherzinger is fantastic in the role. So good I'm going to her again. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This deck was available on a lot of ships (I do not remember exactly, but I think it was Celebrity and Carnaval) I cruised on until about 10 years ago.

flossie009 Posted November 30, 2023 #224 Share Posted November 30, 2023 Thanks for all the reports from the new ship. No experience of Grandeur but on Splendor and Explorer we like the excellent lunch menus in both Chartreuse and Prime 7, with a slight preference for the regular offerings in Chartreuse. I believe the lunchtime daily specials are the same in Chartreuse, P7 and La Veranda. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
