You are welcome you all - I'm glad you liked my review. And thanks Marc for pointing out the lack of refrigerator - we knew that of course, but we felt the lack. Masaki, I did feel the food was as good as the other two lines. But then again, food is very subjective and we are not nit-pickers. There was a good choice of items for appetizers and entrees/desserts, and the service was good. One thing that I have heard complaints about from people on SS and RSSC (and we experienced also on SS) is the wait between courses. We don't like taking 3 hours over dinner, and sometimes due to the lack of prompt service you are forced to. Not on Oceania! I am happy to say that the service was attentive, and prompt. You didn't wait any longer than you normally would at any good restaurant. This was in the Main Dining Room. We eat early, around 7:00, and the place was always full so they certainly have enough staff. At Tapas, where you get your own food from the buffet, waiters were there immediately to get your drinks, and perhaps (not always) take your plates to the table. Really, we were very happy with the quality and service in the dining rooms. As I said earlier, though, the staff was greener than you would find on SS. I will tell you one anecdote: A man was standing at the food counter at breakfast. No one was there at the moment to serve him his scrambled eggs. He picked up the scooper and began to serve himself. A female server came up and SNATCHED/GRABBED the scooper out of his hand and HISSED "I will serve you." The poor man was so taken aback by having his hand attacked (!) that he walked off in a huff. I actually thought it was amusing, but he was obviously offended, and really I don't blame him. This tells you a little about the inexperienced nature of the staff. But - as I say - we thought the food was great! Served, or not....... :rolleyes:
