Creator's Key Takeaways

We played some games in the purple turtle bar. We also experimented tipping the waiter or waitress and uh did it make any difference?

I still prefer to go to the main dining room and it it makes it more of a special evening, but just with this one time, we did give it a try and the food was fine.

The food's been all right on this cruise. Um, it's not me installed by a long shot, but you know, it's nice, it's okay, it's tasty, it's it's fine.

We did get a little bit better service on previous night um we were kind of hoping it would work for the rest of the cruise but sadly uh she didn't work enough in this bar.

Creator's Tips & Advice

βœ“Try the buffet for a quicker meal, but note it lacks the same service as the main dining room.
βœ“If you have special dietary needs, look for the blue plate service.
