You are so right Julie it is what you get used to I believe. We really did enjoy the South Africans on board Seabourn because of we love South Africa and talked to them quite a bit. I have become so accustomed to the servers from the Phillipines and that may be why I find it friendlier, they have become like family in a way.
As for the mix up with food it really was bad that one night BUT I have had that happen on Regent and Silversea it can happen on any given night on any ship.
