We met a CM who was the daughter of our table-mates on our cruise in January. She told us they ate dinner after the passengers, and that the food, while good, was not anything like we got in the MDRs. She said the crew kitchen fixed dishes to appeal to all the various nationalities on board, so one night they might get Asian, another night European, etc, but that they always had vegetarian and lots of rice dishes. We'd talked to our servers on other cruises and they said much the same. What they described reminded me of my cruises in the Navy: work all day, eat when we could, and occasionally sleep for a few hours before doing it all over again for weeks on end.
