Creator's Key Takeaways

I've just finished a 21 night cruise on board this pretty spectacular cruise ship

they consistently made me the best cooked eggs benedict that I've ever had on a cruise ship it was so good

Pinnacle Grill was one of my absolute highlights when I was on board Rotterdam

I found the difference between included dining and Specialty dining on board Ram to be huge which I was really surprised about

Creator's Tips & Advice

Try the eggs Benedict in the main dining room for breakfast
Visit the Leal Market for a casual buffet breakfast or lunch
Have the steak and candied bacon at Pinnacle Grill for dinner
Go to afternoon tea between 3:00 p.m. and 3:45 p.m.
Order room service only when other dining venues are closed

YouTube Video Description

#cruise #hollandamericaline #hollandamerica #cruiseship #cruisevlog In this video, I'm coming to you from onboard Rotterdam, the newest cruise ship in the Holland America Line fleet. I'm going to talk to you about the topic of Dining, and will give you a full overview of every single meal available on this ship: breakfast, lunch, dinner, and a few extras in between! Hopefully this video can help you to understand what Dining looks like onboard a Holland America cruise ship. It's important to note - while this video is based specifically on the venues and my experience on Rotterdam, this advice should also be relevant for many other ships and in the Holland America fleet, which currently stands with Eurodam, Koningsdam, Nieuw Amsterdam, Nieuw Statendam, Noordam, Oosterdam, Volendam, Westerdam, Zaandam or Zuiderdam!
