Zak's Pack3 Posted October 20, 2008 #76 Share Posted October 20, 2008 Wel it doesen't seem like it's already time to get off the ship and return to reality, but tomorrow is it. It's been a great 18 days and I can't wait till Jan for my next cruise. I will post a general review after I get back, but the entire cruise has met or exceeded nearly all of my expections. The food, for the most part, has been good to very good. The Specialty venues were good to very good. Sabitini's was better than the Crown grill (IMHO). The Crown Grill just didn't wow me. Of course the Chef's table was the best single thing I have ever experienced on any of my cruises. Overall the crew was outstanding and really went the extra mile to make sure all of our concerns were delt with. A special hats off to "George" in the internet cafe and "Anatolly" waiter in the Botticelli dining room (for table 123). Both top notch people. Hope all enjoy, to the fullest, any future cruise plans.

We will be boarding the Emerald tomorrow afternoon for the Southern Caribbean. We are planning a dinner at Sabatini's for our anniversary and have heard good things about it. Enjoy your next cruise in January - lucky you!! Patty and Richie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

momofcbp Posted October 22, 2008 #83 Share Posted October 22, 2008 Bob.. Thanks so much for the live reviews and pictures. I am so happy you had such a wonderful trip. We will be on the Emerald for Thanksgiving, and was wondering if they offered the "Ultimate Card", and what movies were offered at MUTS. Thanks Again!

As far as Muts, two movies that come to mind were the latest Indiana Jones flick and a movie called 21.
