clj7181 Posted January 31, 2018 Author #151 Share Posted January 31, 2018 I also tied the pork belly. The outside was crispy - it was good - but a bit odd. Main course was my lamb and mom’s veal - both tender and cooked well - but mom actually preferred her filet tonight. The best part of any meal is coming up - dessert! Compliments of the chef - macaroons are my favorite - poor mom didn’t have a chance - I snatched on to it right away.

clj7181 Posted January 31, 2018 Author #152 Share Posted January 31, 2018 Rest of dessert...my soufflé was fantastic!!! Mom said hers was also really good. Best deserts so far. Overall we enjoyed the experience - I relaxed as the evening went on. It was more then a meal - it was an experience!

cruising in mn Posted January 31, 2018 #153 Share Posted January 31, 2018 Thanks for your great review! I hope your weather improves, but sounds like its not hindering you 2 in any way. We'll be on the boat as you get off on Sat the 3rd. Do you happen to see any massage specials? 11 cruises and the hubby and I have never had one, and we thought we might try one this cruise. If they have any specials, that would be even better. If you happen to see anything let me know. Dont go out of your way to find out. Thank you!

clj7181 Posted January 31, 2018 Author #154 Share Posted January 31, 2018 Thanks for the great review. We are 14 night Reflection Dec 7 2018. Are you enjoying most of the entertainment? I really liked the Beyond the Podium speaker and the 2nd night - which was Uptown - so it has been hit or miss.

clj7181 Posted January 31, 2018 Author #155 Share Posted January 31, 2018 If you see a Caribe Guinness on the drink men, can you tell me the price. DH is wondering what the up charge might be from the Classic package. Loving the review and reliving 2 past cruises on her! snow bunny A standard Guinness is $8 at the Gastro Pub - where would I find a Caribe Guinness?

Sent from my iPhone using Forums It is a drink that should be on a bar menu. Not sure if they offer them or not. Thanks for the price of Guinness. snow bunny Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Save your money and have a massage before your vacation. I have had massages for years and endured 2 at sea - both complimentary from our TA. Never again. The massage itself is ok but the hard-sell after ward ruins the experience. Be aware that even on special they are double the cost of one near home.
