If kelmac is even close to right that 60% of the dining room tables are dedicated to open dining and 60% of the guests are dedicated to fixed dining, wouldn't it be wonderful if HAL just flipped the designations of the tables (that is, declare the tables that were for open dining will henceforth be for fixed and vice versa.) It wouldn't cost a penny since none of the furniture would move, the stewards are self-propelled, and, at a stroke, 20% of the guests would be overjoyed.
If they have been unexpectedly stubborn about their dining preferences, maybe it would be advantageous, for the time being, to just nudge them in the direction one desires them to go rather than driving them and wait until they eventually either learn to love open dining or a return of the sellers' market for cruise cabins makes them less picky, to try to reach the ultimate goal. After all, the designations can be flipped back just as easily.
I wince every time some contributor to this board threatens to walk off with their checkbook; I hope I'm going to need this cruise line for quite some time yet and to know that 20% of the guests have more reason to be grateful would make me feel much more secure.

IRL Joanie:
The recipe you found is very close. If I don't find the one from the Amsterdam, I'm sure it will be an excellent substitute. Thank you for searching for it.

Chef Mathew, Jim Vrhovac or anyone:
Recently on the Amsterdam, we had hazlenut cappuccino mousse cake. I keep dreaming about it. If anyone can give me the recipe so I can get a good night's sleep, I'd be very grateful.
