Creator's Key Takeaways
I didn't order it. I didn't want it and I definitely did not enjoy it.
The food was less memorable on the whole, but if we do the sensible thing and just pretend that BNO puddings don't exist, then there were no real disasters and it was all better than I could have made.
Sindu gets a solid 8 out of 10 from me.
The food is edible. I generally avoid ship buffets most of the time anyway, but even more so on the Iona incubator.
