[quote=Anonymous]There’s a lot of Applebee’s quality food on cruises but also some much better stuff.  Some of it is just knowing what to order (avoid stuff like barbecue and Alfredo (because  they are pitching that for the Applebees fans).  Some of it is luck — you have to kind of try stuff and if it’s gross just leave it and try something else.  Soups are often good, filet mignon. Shrimp cocktail.  Sometimes salads in the dining hall or things like club sandwiches.  Dining hall almost always better than buffet.  Always check cruisecritic to see i was the buzz is on specialty restaurants, some of which are not upcharge — eg I went on a NCL that had a small Cuban place that had delicious beans and rice and desserts, or a carnival with a small fried fish place that had great fish and chips, but both were sort of tucked away hidden on the ship.

Anyway. I think the lesson of this thread is that it’s always worth putting some time into researching before you put down money so you have realistic expectations and can make informed decisions about whether you want to spend more money for a different experience.  And once you are there you might as well make the best of it!  [/quote]
