Dining

On the Crown Princess, passengers can opt for traditional evening dining or the cruise line's "Anytime" option.  Traditional dining is in the Botticelli restaurant with fixed sittings at 6 p.m. and at 8:15 p.m.

The ship's design avoids the cruise ship banquet ambience of one big restaurant in favour of two more intimate and welcoming restaurants -- the Michelangelo and the Da Vinci. Each offers exactly the same menu as in the main dining room. Our Catch the Wave group is on Anytime Dining since it gives you more flexibility to plan around the conference schedule.

The casual Horizon Court buffet is open 24hrs and pizza, hamburgers and hotdogs are served by the pool.

Afternoon tea -- complete with white gloved waiters serving scones, piping hot tea and petite sandwiches -- is offered at the International from 3:30 until 4:30 p.m.  

To celebrate a special occasion there is Sabatini's Italian restaurant or if you're in the mood for a great steak try the Crown Grill. Both have an added charge of $25 per person.
