Now we have a forum member who is going to tell us if we are "presentable" or not. The hits keep coming! This guy must be a lot of fun at parties. This is freakin' VACATION we're talking about. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zippeedee Posted March 12, 2022 #127 Share Posted March 12, 2022 As long as they don’t smell like they just slopped the hogs, it’s all good with me. One of the nicest people I ever met on a ship invited me to their birthday party at Cagney’s and wore his Haven bathrobe to the event. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OK, so you have the funds to stay in the Haven on NCL or the Retreat on X, or the Yacht Club on MSC or an Aqua Theater Suite on RCI. Glad to see you survived that obstructed view cabin on HAL back in 2006. I guess ambiance regarding the type of cabin you reside in is OK for you, but you look down your nose when others on the boards don't like it when other diners dress down in some venues. 🙄 Envy is never becoming 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very few restaurants are likely to refuse you service based upon your attire. But is that the only question? Again, it’s just not that hard to look presentable. Just pretend you live in a big city and go to restaurants not part of a big chain (e.g., Applebee’s). Pretend you live in a big city! , damn your pompous and assume no one who does not has no class. I’d rather have dinner with Jethro Bodine the Beverly Hillbillies and the cast of Hee Haw than a person like you any day of the week. They are real people.

But yes, I have eaten in Abe & Louis, Capitol Grille, wearing shorts, sandals, ballcap (not backwards I am not that uncouth) and a polo shirt. Never been a problem, then I don't judge others, however they CHOOSE to dress, my dinner still tastes the same. If you live just outside of Boston, then type Boston. When you type New England, that covers a large geographic area in which you can reside. My only gripe is that the rules regarding baseball caps are not enforced. It's Cagney's, not the buffet. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I'm not sweating any small stuff. I just wish that NCL would enforce rules that they have and not let the inmates run the asylum. I was just brought up where you don't wear a cap at home at the kitchen table, let alone in public at a steakhouse. I guess you were raised differently. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A family had a teenager who I guess was inappropriately dressed, I don’t remember what the issue might have been, but they refused him and told him that he had to come back dress appropriately. so, I’m thinking that sometimes they do enforce the code. We always dress country club “nice“, so we never have an issue. That includes our millennials… always pack a pair of khakis. Khakis and a clean polo shirt take you a long way. Thank you for your post. The crew has an obligation to follow NCL dress code rules, yet passengers consistently dis-obey them - just like spoiled children - until they are told to dress appropriately. NCL is not asking they you wear gowns & black tie, but they are asking that your attire match their dress code. If you want to wear flip flops and ball caps to dinner, go to Carnival. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ll don my bib overhauls with a straw hat and let her “wrastle” me in Le Bistro any day for dinner with her. Oughta see how some are dressed out by the cement pond on any cruise ship if you really want to get your speedo in a bunch. Who doesn’t love the overwhelming scent of “CHARLIE” when a woman in a gown or a man in a tux is drenched in BRUT and seated next to us at dinner. I’ll keep doing what I do and dressing how I dress at dinner while cruising knowing the issue isn’t with me, but with those who have little in the way of their self esteem to judge lil ole me. I’ll take particular delight knowing that. And, I do agree. This whole discussion has devolved into silliness. The vast majority of us just don’t care. Those that do? We all know the type. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is good to know ahead of time what to expect. I have seen people turned away from the Venetian, aft MDR on Dawn, for wearing shorts at dinner time. I really like that dining room, even with the updated art work! The hat thing does not bother me, but my husband would never wear a hat at the dinner table. That is how he was raised.

Just be aware that the post you quoted only lets you know ahead of time what to expect if you are going on the Bliss, and that is as long as it doesn't change on that ship (it is fairly unlikely that it will but you never know). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
