Dining
If there is one thing the name Celebrity is synonymous with it is cuisine. A menu designed by Michelin 3-star chef, Michel Roux makes it clear why Celebrity ships are at the top of their game for their price range. Fresh seafood and produce are provisioned on the fly, and much of the food is cooked to order and delicious. The cuisine is consistent with Roux's publicized rejection of many of the trendier trappings of contemporary cuisine as being gimmicks; this is basic, classical cuisine, well executed, but don't look for sculpted presentations or unusual multicultural fusions. The menu features nightly spa and vegetarian choices. There is a children's menu on request, and special diets can be accommodated if requested at the time of booking.
There are two facilities serving the pool area, the Oasis Cafe and the Grill. The Cafe is the basic lunch and dinner buffet operation, with a good variety. There are a handful of assistants available to help passengers to their tables. The Grill serves tea in the afternoon and pizza at various times during the day. They also do burgers and hot dogs at lunchtime. The grill also serves an alternative casual sit-down dinner on long port days, for which reservations must be made. A limited room service menu is available 24-hours a day. Galaxy's midnight buffet extremely well done and varying themes keep passengers going back nightly -- some themes are served pool side, Mexican and Caribbean in particular, to encourage an all out party atmosphere with dancing and a live band. Two types of tea are served onboard, an elegant tea in the dining room once a week and a casual afternoon tea in the Oasis Cafe.
If your ideal dining experience during your cruise consists of fine cuisines and tasty entrees, search no more. No matter what type of preference you acquire, our chefs are well qualified to achieve the ideal temptation. Also, if you're in the mood for dining under the stars you'll find outdoor seating. If the clock reads that it's past midnight and you're starting to have hunger pains, feel free to give the 24-Hour Room service a ring or two.
