We have always eaten our dinners in the dining room, but not this time. Day 1 I already told you, Day 2 we ate at Chops with jiddy and mrsogni, otherwise know as Joe and Sharon. We all enjoyed it as I knew we would. Tomato and onion salad with bleu cheese, filets that were cooked to perfection and so tender we didn't need a steak knife to cut them. Makes my mouth water now. DH ordered a baked potato, the size of a watermelon or so it seemed. We shared sides of mushrooms, corn, creamed spinach and of course there was great bread on the table too. For desert I ordered a caramel brulee that tasted like marvelous cheesecake and the rest all ordered the mud pie. We waddled out very happy. The service was excellent. This was the first formal night so it was fairly empty. On days 2 and 3 we opted for the Windjammer as the dinner menus didn't sound that good. The Jammer was fairly empty so we got tables by the windows both nights. Day 4 we again ate at Chops. This time I ordered a T-bone. OMG, it was fantastic. Joe ordered a veal chop and he said it was great. We had the same deserts again.  Day 5 was our other formal night so we decided to go. We finally met our table mates. Very nice people. One couple was celebrating their 50th anniversary, another their 45th. Needless to say they were a bit older than us . The lobster was not the best but I did have two anyway. Our waiter was very good as was his assistant. The rest of the cruise, due to excursions and time constraints, we again chose to eat at the Windjammer.
