Creator's Key Takeaways

I was a princess snob for years I've only styled with Princess majority of my life and their main dining room turned me off from main dining room foods

I was on the inaugural sowing of the carnival celebration from Southampton England all the way over to Miami and they won my heart back with how fast I was in and out

I was with my buddy Scott McNeil and we were on the Mardi Gras and uh this was back in June this was before the very first ever boats and Bros cruise

I went to butcher's cut on MSC it was a little later but it was the only reservation they had available I was with a group of people it took them over an hour to bring us our drinks we were there for almost three hours

Creator's Tips & Advice

If you want speed, go to the buffet on formal nights to get the same prime rib without the wait
Try the main dining room on Carnival ships for faster service compared to other lines
Specialty dining is recommended if you want to avoid missing shows and activities
Book anytime dining reservations to manage your time better
