Creator's Key Takeaways
The buffet on Borealis really surprised me. I'm not normally a buffet sort of girl, but at breakfast, lunch, afternoon tea, dinner, and supper time, the food selection was always very varied and of good quality.
This is my favorite poolside grill of any ship I've sailed on. And if you are sailing on Borealis, give it a try.
I felt the quality of the ingredients was a step up from cruise lines such as PO, Ambassador, and Mela.
In fact, I came back from this cruise and raved to my husband about how delicious the food was and what great choices there were.
