Disney Dream - Remy Dining Tip/Heads-up

[Nathan_F]

We had a wonderful trip aboard the Dream from 10/20-10/24 EXCEPT for our wine/alcohol experience at Remy.

Long story short - the sommelier was rude and extremely inattentive. (It all started when we politely declined the pairings he suggested and wanted to order bottles and glasses of wine for each course.) In fact, my wife and I ended up having to share her glass of wine during our main course and it was in the middle of the next course before we requested him (again) and he finally made an appearance. Quite poor form all around.

Here's the advice: go to the bar situated between Remy and Palo the afternoon before your meal and request the wine menu and the evening menu. Make your bottle and glass selections and then enjoy your meal later! When the sommelier makes his grand entrance, let him know that you have pre-selected your wine choices. And if you need help - use the bar staff - they were far more helpful than the sommelier.

Was that Cyril or Clive, or something like that? I was underwhelmed with his choices, as well, especially considering that I'd paid the very expensive upcharge for the wine pairing.

I had a much better experience at the Remy brunch, where the champagne pairing was very straightforward, handled by our wonderful waiter, and a very good value at $25. I would definitely do Remy brunch again; dinner, I'm not so sure.
