When you book your cruise, you will have to select your dining time. There are 2 seatings for dinner – 6pm and 8pm. This will also determine the time of your show because you take turns in eating and watching shows. If you eat at 6pm you will watch the first show at 8pm. Then those who eat at 8pm will watch the next showing at 10pm Love the plate liners. They change every now and then Just like how you have your butler and maid, you have your servers in the dining room And they are soon to be wed!!:-) There are 2 sides in the menu all the time – Modern Cuisine and Crystal Classic. It’s overwhelming! You can order anything and everything and as much as you want. You can also ask for half portions so you can try more. If you are a big family it is better so you can share and taste more dishes. In the beginning I thought it was the same menu throughout the cruise and so you get to try other dishes each time. But no! The menu changes every meal – lunch and dinner and everyday it changes!! And the food here is good. Don’t eat in Nobu every meal! 🙂 There is a cheese cart which we did not anymore get to touch because we have so much food already on our table Wine is included and there are some drinks that you can just pay for if you prefer
