CBCit Posted June 2, 2006 #1 Share Posted June 2, 2006 It was really a hard choice deciding between these two, as we have never had any problems with Carnival and heard great things about the Liberty, but the CB won out in the end. So now a question: I know the steak house and Italian restaurant have cover charges, but what about all the other dining venues, which are included and which are extra? Also: do they ever have poker tournaments in the casino, my DH would love that? Thanks for any and all info. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Host Caroline Posted June 2, 2006 #2 Share Posted June 2, 2006 :) There isn't a charge in any of the other dining venues that I've ever encountered ex. the coffee bar (lattes etc). Not sure if you consider that a dining venue or not. Not a gambler so not sure re poker tourneys but they have (or had) slot tourneys. Wise decision....

Sea Fan Posted June 2, 2006 #4 Share Posted June 2, 2006 We were on the Grand in Feb and my DH played in a poker tournament. He had a ball and there were alot of people wanting to play. Maybe this is something they will do on a regular basis. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TinaLee Posted June 2, 2006 #5 Share Posted June 2, 2006 Just checked my Patters for April and there was a slot tournament (actually 2) and blackjack tournament (2), but I don't see anything about a poker tournament. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
serene56 Posted June 2, 2006 #6 Share Posted June 2, 2006 I am sailing on the CB first timer on Princess after being a Carnival junkie since 1999. I really booked to try anytime dining. But after reading a few pages on the Princess board I can think of tons of others reasons that I am glad I made the move. Sterlings Steakhouse and Sabitinis are the only place that is charged for dining. (I wish I could see a menu for these places) (ice cream is not free like on Carnival- ice cream is available at selected times during the day for free) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

serene56 Posted June 6, 2006 #13 Share Posted June 6, 2006 At the specialty restaurants can you order more then 1 entree or appetizer like you can in traditional cruise dining? from the sound of it--- there is no room for seconds.. hell there doesnt sound like there is enough room for what is being served first. The dining room portions are very small compared to specialty places. Expect your portions to be bigger then what you get in the dining room Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
