Silver Spirit: Dining Delights

From the extensive room service breakfast menu to casual lunches at the pool grill and open seating dinner in The Restaurant, dining aboard Silver Spirit is an exceptional experience.

The day begins at the Coffee Corner in the Panorama Lounge and is followed by breakfast and lunch in The Restaurant and La Terrazza buffet. Afternoon tea is served in La Terrazza and canapés are offered before dinner in the Main Bar and the Panorama Lounge. In addition to dinner in The Restaurant, alternatives by reservation include regional Italian dinners in La Terrazza, Asian Degustation in Seishin, the Relais and Chateaux dining experience in Le Champagne, and “foodatainment” in Stars where bite-sized portions of dishes inspired by Silver Spirit’s ports are accompanied by cool jazz.

A final dinner option is my favorite—pictured above, The Grill Dinner is served al fresco on the pool deck where guests grill their own entrées on super heated volcanic rock, choosing from a variety of steak cuts, pork, veal, fish, or prawns. I’m not terribly talented in the kitchen, but one thing I do well is grill and this dining experience is now one of my favorites at sea.

While food is available at any time, I appreciate the portion sizes we’ve been served—none have been overwhelming—and the attention to preparation and service has been superb.
