"Ship Eats" - Virgin Voyages Room Service Delivers on Different

Virgin Voyages is a new cruise line and they’re aiming to do things differently.  As a frequent cruiser, room service is often disappointing - but did Virgin do this differently?  We put it to the test.  On our first cruise with Virgin Voyages we didn’t use room service, or “Ship Eats” as the line calls it.  On our second cruise we decided it was time to put it to the test...
