Steak selection in the Crown Grill on Emerald Princess |
Day Two of our guest blog by CruiseMiss Danielle Fear. Today she turns her attention to the food on board Emerald Princess
Food is a big deal with Princess Cruises, that was evident
within just a few minutes of stepping aboard and wandering through the buffet,
and I visited the Pizzeria several times during the cruise. The Pepperoni was
by far my favourite and the slices were HUGE, but I did make the mistake on day
one of asking for a “Margarita pizza” and wondered why the chef looked at me
oddly, I then leaned over the counter and realised that an entire pizza was in
fact the size of a small country – his reaction was truly warranted!
I can also
highly recommend the Crown Grill and Sabatini’s, both of which incur an
additional charge of $25 per person, but they are worth every single cent!
The
Crown Grill was superb and the choice of meat and seafood was second
to none – the lobster looked delicious, although in the end I opted for a 12-ounce New York strip steak. It was cooked perfectly and was incredibly juicy; the vegetables to accompany it were also very good (I could have easily eaten
more of the creamed spinach) and dessert was a filling affair.
Sabatini’s
offers a wonderful selection of Italian dishes and during my visit I tried
calamari for the first time and I finally got my lobster, which was cooked
three ways. I have to say that although both restaurants were very good indeed,
Crown Grill was my favourite and I wish now that I had visited more than once.
TOMORROW: Coming and going the Princess way.
