One thing about this cruise is sure - we have absolutely no complaints about the food. It has been excellent! And just in case any chocoholics onboard were feeling a little left out or deprived, the chefs put on a Buffet where everything was made out of chocolate. The food definitely has a British edge to it - sometimes this is even a little "quirky" - eg Calf's liver at a Captain's gala dinner (which, I hasten to add, was delicious). We have been surprised at the quality and freshness of the vegetables - considering that the ship is a long way from home. We are unclear as to the extent of re-provisioning at the various ports we have visited.
We have visited the Oriana Rhodes on one occasion for an evening meal - we thought it was very good and worth the extra. We are intending to book dinner on "the Terrace Grill" on the night that we are in Port Said (after we have transited the Suez Canal.This is going to be a big and long day for us). The Terrace Grill is set up in the open on the aft deck of the ship - on one of the tiered terraces. We noticed a small number of passengers dining there as we were preparing to leave Hong Kong - what a fantastic dining backdrop they had!!
