New food and drink options have been unveiled by Norwegian Cruise Line for its Prima class ships.
Norwegian Prima and Norwegian Viva, the first of six vessels in the new class, will feature nine new dining and beverage venues including Metropolitan Bar, the brand’s first ‘sustainably-focused’ bar offering zero-waste cocktails prepared with surplus ingredients.
Other new options include Mediterranean seafood specialty restaurant Palomar, the Japanese ‘hibachi-style’ Hasuki and sushi house Nama.
Enhancements will also be made to the line’s culinary staples Le Bistro, Cagney’s Steakhouse and Food Republic as well as the Observation Lounge.
Both ships will feature a total of 35 dining and lounge options.
NCL’s first three-story, glass-walled Penrose Atrium will be one of the focal points on Norwegian Prima and Viva.
President and chief executive Harry Sommer said: “We’ve been innovators in the food and beverage space for more than three decades, becoming the first cruise line to offer specialty dining and the first to introduce our ‘Freestyle Cruising’ concept that allows our guests to vacation their way by giving them the choice to decide when and where they dine.
“Our latest food and beverage offerings take our Norwegian Prima food and beverage experience to another level, one that travels well beyond the guest expectation to provide elevated gastronomical experiences featuring sophisticated design, masterful mixology and cuisine that delivers full-throttle flavour.”
