Can you still do traditional dining on Anthem?

I understand that the Anthem of the Seas does My Time Dining. But I also read on the Royal Caribbean website (way at the bottom of the Anthem dining paragraph) that you can do traditional dining (6:00 & 8:30). Being a traditionalist, I'd much rather do traditional dining. 1) Is this still possible; and 2) If you've taken advantage of traditional dining, is the service the same as what you'd expect on a smaller Royal Caribbean ship? This will be my first time on the Anthem, but have done lots of other Royal Caribbean cruises.

Yes you have the option of MTD or MDR...you shouldn't see any difference in service.

Just make sure you book it early. I booked Anthem 7 months out and traditional dining was not available. However I am going during a busy week.
