"I prefer Tapa's ahead of the Dining Room because at the GDR they feed you too many courses". I never dined at the GDR on our B2B in July/Aug this year but from memory on previous Oceania cruises dont they only feed you what you order??????????????lol:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MightyQuinn Posted August 14, 2010 #11 Share Posted August 14, 2010 I guess people do not know you do not have to order everything on the menu ..it is not like the mass market linesLyn, I'm missing the connection here. Are you saying that on Oceania you don't have to order everything on the menu, but on the "mass market lines" you do? That's definitely not our experience but YMMV. ;);) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's definitely not our experience but YMMV. ;);) Many people on mass market lines feel they have to order multiples to get their monies worth ...but never noticed that on Oceania though I suppose it happens :D Our friends go on RCCL and always order 3 entrees each plus several desserts. I have enough trouble with 1 entree & dessert;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leonid Posted August 14, 2010 #15 Share Posted August 14, 2010 Too much food at the buffet? No one forces anyone to take more than they need. Reminds me of a sign over the door at one of the mess halls at Ft. Knox, KY. "Take all you want....eat all you take". Might be useful for the Terrace Cafe:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aruba Posted August 14, 2010 #16 Share Posted August 14, 2010 That was funny Lyn. It was nice meeting you. How are you adjusting to being back home? I am not pleased with the new ship I find myself on. The stateroom attendant is nowhere to be seen and the towels are still laying on the floor where I left them. The cruise director has vanished and taken the spa with him. The port is entirely uninteresting and the captain seems to be in no hurry to set sail. Such is my new reality...
