We went on MSC Orchestra
January 10, 2009. We wouldn't go back on this ship again.
The ship
was beautiful, but it was very difficult to order our meal
and get what we ordered. The waiter was Excellent,
attentive, but didn't always understand what we asked for.
I asked for creamy garlic dressing on the side and got
Italian dressing in my dish.
The food
was HORRIBLE. We complained to the Maitre D and he said he
would make up a special dish for us the next night. It was
Pasta with Oil and Garlic. The 7 of us at our table asked
the waiter to come and take it away quickly as to not hurt
the Maite D's feelings. How can you mess up Pasta with
garlic and oil? I can't figure it out.
None of us
enjoyed most of our meals they served. We did get Escargot,
but it was in a brown gravy, in which none of us have seen
it made that way and none of us enjoyed it.
The crew
needs a lot more lessons in English also.
You had to
pay for the pizza at night. The meals were limited, if you
didn't get there when they were served you did without
anything at the buffet. They had food, only certain hours.
They only
served Hot chocolate in the morning, couldn't get it in the
evening.
That's all
I can think of right now.
It was my
first and last cruise on MSC Orchestra.
