Tourexpi
MSC Cruises' newest flagship, MSC World America, will
feature the only Eataly restaurant at sea when she enters service next year.
MSC
Cruises is partnering with Eataly, the global ambassador of high-quality
Italian food and wine, to offer guests an exclusive experience on the line's
new flagship. The world-renowned brand will debut alongside the ship's other
new restaurant and on-the-go food options, offering more choice and more
convenience, while blending the cruise line's signature European elegance with
experiences tailored to the American market.
Bernhard
Stacher, Vice President of Global Hotel Operations, MSC Cruises, said: "As
an international cruise line with a strong European heritage, we are committed
to taking our guests on a gastronomic journey of discovery with the onboard
dining experience as we believe that the best memories are made when sharing
good food together. MSC World America stays true to this philosophy, which is
why we have partnered with Eataly – an emblem of Made in Italy and
Italian culinary artistry. We share a passion for high-quality, authentic food
made with fresh ingredients and together we are creating a unique experience
that can only be enjoyed on board MSC World America."
Maximizing
choice while offering a mix of traditional favorites and new flavors has always
been at the core of MSC Cruises' dining ethos. MSC World America will
offer 19 dining venues, including four elegant main restaurants, two relaxed
buffets, two exclusive venues for guests in the MSC Yacht Club, and unique
experiences including:
NEW!
EATALY AT SEA
MSC
World America's new Eataly restaurant will offer a menu that spans the pillars

items exclusively available on board. Guests can expect an unparalleled
ingredient selection carefully sourced from Italian suppliers—with freshly made
pasta crafted on-site—for an unforgettable culinary journey celebrating Italy's finest
flavors.
Eataly
on MSC World America is a celebration of Italian culture and
tradition, with a passion that extends beyond the menu. The restaurant's design
will incorporate warm materials, natural tones and soft lighting, fostering an
informal yet elegant atmosphere. Plus, the open kitchen will maintain Eataly's
commitment to showcasing the cooking process live in front of guests' eyes.
