I'm curious about the Chef's Table on my next cruise on Summit - has anyone does this in the past? Is it worth it? Is it worth the price? Any feedback would be much appreciated! Thank you!

I am sailing on Disney Fantasy in November, and I am a little confused about the main dining rooms. I understand that it is rotational dining, and on a 7-night cruise we will eat in each dining room/restaurant twice, and one restaurant, three times. My question lies with the menus - on all other commercial cruise lines, the main dining room menus change each night, but in my research I have only seen one menu posted online specific to each of the 3 restaurants onboard. Does each dining room have only one menu for that particular restaurant, or does it change each night like on a typical cruise? To clarify, will we have to choose from the same dinner menu each time we eat in a certain location? Thanks in advance for the help!

When you complete the check-in process on the app, you will be asked to select a Check-In time. I believe the earliest time available is 11 or 11:30, and it is possible, based on when everyone completes the check-in process, that all may not be able to get the same time. Before COVID, you could show up at any time, but in my experience since then, they do try to adhere to the times you are given. I have seen people show up at the port early, only to have them told to wait outside until their scheduled arrival time. I have not personally done an embarkation in Vancouver since COVID, but I would imagine that it is similar to other ports. My point is, don't expect to show up at 10:15 and get on the ship first thing.

The Burrata salad is wonderful, and they have the best Tiramisu!

I saw in a Facebook group today that it is now self serve on the Solstice as well.

I can only give you my personal experience - I am Elite, and my mother, who I often sail with, is Select. When they used to have the Happy hour or priority boarding, she would come with me and they never had an issue including her. Now that the benefits are less structured, I don't know how that would work.
