Advice on solo cruising and the specialty resturantsfor first time Norwegian cruiser

[woolbie]

I will be cruising for the first time on Norwegian Getaway this April. I have cruised to Alaska on Celebrity in the past. Since my husband could not get off work I will be doing the solo suite room. I was curious if anyone else had cruised solo on this ship before and if so how you liked it? Did you find the sign ups in the lounge helpful for meeting others while on the ship? And what the general age range was for those cruising in these rooms. Also I purchased the spd 3 night package. I plan on Cagney's, Le Bistro and can't decide if Teppanyaki is worth it for my 3rd night or if I should do a repeat at Cagney's or Le Bistro or pay the upcharge and try Ocean Blue. I could also possibly just dine there al la carte on a 4th night. Normally I would let my husband make the decision so I'm having a difficult time. I will say I'm a foodie and when we sailed celebrity we were in Aqua class. We loved the Blu dining room and I was disappointed with the buffet for lunch.

I would post this on the NCL forum:
