Yeah, it was excellent.  Unfortunately, it was discontinued.  This was not officially called a seafood buffet; the Rio termed it a weekend champagne brunch (Saturdays and Sundays).  It was held in the showroom, which is a great facility with huge video screens all around that played music videos conducive to a leisurely brunch. There were lots of seafood items on the buffet line.

It was especially attractive because the Carnival World buffet became so crowded on weekends...for a few bucks more, you could avoid a long wait and enjoy the showroom brunch.

With the recent expansion of the Carnival World buffet, maybe they thought the champagne brunch was superfluous.
