YouTube Video Description

Welcome back to my channel! In this series of videos, I'm showing you around various parts of Royal Caribbean's HUGE Symphony of the Seas. One thing's true - Symphony is one of the largest cruise ships on the planet (or the waves...!), and she certainly delivers from a 'dining offering' point of view. Onboard, you're going to find TEN additional charge restaurants on offer (11 if you include Starbucks, but I haven't as it's more of a cafe...). In total, you'll find (in addition to the complimentary Main Dining Room): Chops Grille, Jamie's Italian, Wonderland, Izumi, 150 Central Park, Hooked Seafood, Vintages Wine Bar, the Solarium Bistro, Playmakers and Johnny Rockets. In my last video, we enjoyed a dinner at Wonderland, and I've also taken you to a meal at Jamie's to show you that, so today let me take you into Chops Grille - the onboard steakhouse. Now, if I'm being perfect honest, I tend to avoid steakhouses to a degree on cruise ships - I often find that they're all the same, and quite over-priced, so I was really interested to know if I'd actually enjoy this experience, or wish I'd kept my money. I paid for this meal using one of Royal Caribbean's dining packages, which I ordered online prior to the cruise. This can be purchased via your Royal Caribbean login, and can be ordered right up until a few days before your sailing date! So, is it any good, or would I prefer to just go to the Main Dining Room instead? Let's find out! I’m hoping you’ll enjoy this video, and also enjoy wider exploring on my channel!
