We had been on the Eclipse last June on a Baltic cruise and it was wonderful. This time we were disappointed in many areas. The food in the MDR was mediocre. I felt like I was eating at the cafeteria at work. The chicken Kiev was basically a breaded chicken breast. Nothing special at all. Even the deserts were nothing special. The coffee shop's pastries were much more delicious than the deserts in the MDR.
The special entertainment wasn't bad. We really enjoyed the Four Seasons group. The cruise director is fabulous. Best I've seen in my fourteen cruises. Sue Denning is a sweetheart and very talented herself. Enjoyed the show that she put on herself.
There were so many things that it seemed that Celebrity scrimped on. The tea bags were just plain cheap. Barely changed the color of the hot water. The fresh squeezed orange juice which is now an additional cost did not taste fresh squeezed, more watered down. Oh, and let's not forget about the toe nail clippings all on the veranda. Disgusting!
