Service is great, so far. It seems early. What time zone are you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare twangster Posted April 22, 2023 Author #280 Share Posted April 22, 2023 So anyone who knows me, knows that Empress was the only ship where I consistently received great food and great service in Chops. Some ships have great service but the cut of meat wasn't great. Some have had great food but painful service. So far Radiance is achieving Empress status and that is with the venue at capacity. The cut of meat and flavor put Coastal Kitchen filet to shame, and CK usually outperforms Chops on filet night. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers with a officer, even the guy next to me said it was the best steak he ever had on royal. Was the best steak I've had though small, perfect for lunch. Best crew and service ive had since restart. Loved my cabin steward Joy too. Havent seen this on rcl since restart. Glad you enjoyed it. Hope it keeps pleasing you and it's a great cruise. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't remember the food on the Empress but when we sailed her she was still the Nordic Empress. 1st ship with passengers in NY after 9/11. May 2002. Dh says we had great curry thanks to the British friends we were traveling with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I ate the Brie also, but used crackers we brought with. We some time raid the Windjammer at night for some of the different cheeses and eat them with our crackers and Prosecco.
