I definitely prefer having the stations where the workers served you instead of everyone touching the utensils/food. We have always had good experiences at the dining room on Carnival but it sounds like the dining room was not a good experience for you on the Holland America. I can't say that the food was amazing but the service has always been good and the food has always been hot. Did your sister have the same type of experience with the food as far as the wait and it being cold? Glad that you had excellent service throughout the ship. Definitely disappointing not to get towel animals.
