That leaves plenty of no-charge alternatives including the main dining room, the Lido, a pizzeria and Canaletto Italian restaurant. Mick:

I would rather pay more for the cruise and not have to deal with the extra charges.

Do you know what this is? It looks like an area that would perhaps be a small "show kitchen" area. The virtual tour zooms in on one, but only shows cabinets. Any additional info you can provide?

Do you know if in the coming weeks a full lunch menu will be posted on here as well? (And on the topic of alternate restaurants, and more info on prices and/or menus for Canaletto's?) I love that the posts on here have become more frequent. Keep up the great work! Thanks Roland. Do you know if in the coming weeks a full lunch menu will be posted on here as well?

So enjoy the dim sum and the pan-Asian food in Tamarind with impunity. Phantom:

I have a bad reaction to it, and find it very often in oriental cuisine, which might well make Tamarind off limits to me anyway. What is the ship’s policy on MSG?
