Creator's Key Takeaways

The restaurant is half empty and it took 35 minutes to get our food. That's not great, but food's fine.

The beef brisket was quite tough and I didn't end up finishing it cuz I just didn't enjoy eating it.

All the jacuzzi's broken. So the actual bubbles and warmth doesn't work.

Creator's Tips & Advice

βœ“Bring sandwich bags for cookies in the morning.
βœ“Book a reservation at Trattoria on the last day of the cruise.

YouTube Video Description↓

Another full day at sea and this is where things started to unravel. Disappointing food, broken spas, lacklustre service...this definitely isn't the Carnival experience we're used to. Probably my favourite part of the day was the cooking demonstration purely because the chef had a natural talent onstage and the food looked incredible. Spoiler alert: Trattoria is definitely the best experience on the ship.
