I just finished listening to the podcast, and I wanted to add my two cents about my dining experience while on the Wonder. Pete is completely entitled to his opinion, and I'm not saying he is wrong. It's his opinion. I just want to say that we thoroughly enjoyed our dining experience on our first cruise, which was PCC 1.0. I'm sure that Liz can agree that our assistant server left a little bit to be desired, but the food and service was otherwise great. The cruise gave us the opportunity to try many new foods. We honestly enjoyed the whole dining experience.
While a big part of the dining is the food, there is so much more. The atmosphere, the service, the company was all great and would rank up there with some of the best times on the cruise. Palo was wonderful, and we enjoyed dining in all of the restaurants.
I just wanted to post this, because I don't want any first time cruisers to be rushing out to the nearest grocery store to stock their suitcases full of food so they don't starve. (Of course, if you would like to visit our grocery store, then that is a GREAT idea ) If I remember correctly, the food on the DCL was bragged about prior to our last cruise. I don't remember by whom, but we went on the cruise expecting great food, and we weren't disappointed.
