Tip 1: If you want it, order it. If you are unsure if you will like a dish while cruising � order it anyway. If you don�t like it, you can simply request for an exchange or order additional samples of food so you can get a feel for everything on the menu.
Tip 2: Many first-time cruisers do not realise you can order as much as you want while eating on a cruise (within reason of course). You purchased the food when you booked the cruise, so get as much from it as you can.
Tip 3: Try a specialty restaurant. Although spending money on a cruise might make your stomach turn � hear us out first. A $25 or $30 per person specialty restaurant on a vessel is the top notch of cruise dining. Why not try it once to experience some of the best service cruising has to offer?
Tip 4: Get into the late-night buffets and cafes. A great aspect to dining is the 24/7 access to delicious desserts, pastries and other foods to satisfy late-night cravings. Try them out at an odd time where your stomach is begging to be fed � you will not be disappointed.
Tip 5: Arrange table accommodations before the cruise. Many tables seat 4-8 people, however you can request a table for two if you prefer � however, do this before the cruise and don�t let it be an afterthought. It�s easier for everyone this way.
Tip 6: While room service can be extremely convenient and extremely fun if you have never tried it before � it is important to remember the menu is limited and doesn�t offer anything new to the table. You�re also meant to tip the staff person who brings your food.
