My Ode to NCL

 

At the break of Dawn I want to Breakaway & Getaway and Escape on a brand new adventure. I want to reach for the Sun and Star shining so brightly in the Sky like a Jewel, a Gem, a Jade and a Pearl. Lift my Spirit high and feel so full of Bliss and take Pride Of America and feel free. What an Epic adventure that would be!!!

So if there is a "Bake Shop" in the atrium on 6, is there a separate "Bake Shop" on 8 by Dolce Gelato where Carlos was advertised to be? If so, do they carry the same bakery products, or do they have cake, cheesecake, etc.?

 

Yes, both venues are selling the same stuff. It was macarons and two sizes of cupcakes only no other cakes or cheesecake.

What was your impression of Bayamo? The portion size appears to be very small including the Bife de Chorizo.

 

Food was really excellent. I only had the Salpicon de Mariscos as we had a dinner at Le Bistro scheduled. My friends had the Bife de Chorizo which is Wagyu beef what explains the price. They also had the Matambee (Beef Carpaccio - forgot to take a photo of that). They both were very pleased with the meat quality and preparation. The meat part of the Bife de Chorizo was well sized. You can "complain" about the sides which were more on the "small side". Anyway with a 3 course meal you didn´t leave hungry.

Not sure if this was already mentioned, as my wifi onboard is spotty, but the Platinum certificate for "Behind the Scenes Tour" says it's been stopped pending further notice from Miami. This is one ship I'd love to do the BTST on.

 

This figures, I hope it changes. My DH and I are finally Platinum and this was one thing we were looking forward too:(

Have they stopped doing the tour altogether, or just giving it away for free to Platinums? Having done (and paid for) the tour on the Getaway, I can say that it was worth every penny.

Would make sense for a time to suspend it because of all the logistics issues involved in getting a new ship design up and running. I would give them a few months to be comfortable.

 

 

They could reinstate it in future. We really do not know just going by what they are saying as of now

Not doing it at all

 

Maybe if there is enough interest, NCL will offer this again. It's obvious they are in tune with message boards such as Cruise Critic so here's hoping. I know Our group traveling in May on the Escape would be interested.

Thanks for your reply. The size of the Wagyu beef in your picture appeared to be small that is why I asked.
