I think a menu with a variety of dishes will help me have more choices and have a perfect meal. When I looked at this menu, I was quite hungry and I really wanted to eat it right away. Restaurants know how to attract customers when they know how to present and know what customers think is how to eat a full and delicious meal.

Submitted by A01285615 on Fri, 10/25/2019 - 00:05

What I like most about the restaurant on the ship, is the tomato soup and I think it's a very affordable price, another thing that I really liked about the restaurant was the vegetable soup, along with an orange juice. and of course a good snack, a chicken sandwich accompanied by a mineral water.

Submitted by vitaminsea on Sun, 10/13/2019 - 04:37

The menu looks really good and attractive. It makes me feel so hungry after reading it. The price of each dish is cheap and reasonable. Moreover, I love sweet so much so I fall in love with some desserts of this restaurant. I'm curious that can I use credit card for paying? Or do I have to use cash for paying the meal? If I have a chance, I will visit this restaurant just because they have a lot of my favourite foods.
