Looking to try the newest specialty dining on the Sun Princess? We’re diving into The Butcher’s Block by Dario, a unique, meat-centric experience created by the world-famous Italian butcher, Dario Cecchini. In this video, we share our honest thoughts on the atmosphere, the multi-course fixed menu, and whether it’s worth the $60/person cover charge. Is it a carnivore's paradise or too adventurous for the average cruiser? We break it all down—including how we felt about the raw beef courses and how it works with the Princess Premier package. 🥩 What’s Inside: - The Vibe: Industrial chic meets an open kitchen (our toddler loved the action!). - The Menu: A fixed, multi-course "tasting" experience. No picking cuts here—Dario decides! - The Food: From Steak Tartare with Osetra Caviar to Bistecca Fiorentina (T-Bone) and that famous "Chianti Butter" (beef tallow). - The Value: At $60 per person, we discuss if it beats the classic Crown Grill or Sabatini’s. - Princess Premier: How this restaurant fits into the package and why it might change your decision to dine here. 🍷 Menu Highlights We Tried: - Burro del Chianti: Whipped beef tallow with Tuscan salt. - Beef Tartare & Carpaccio: Heads up—this menu is very "adventurous" with raw preparations! - T-Bone Steak: The main event, prepared with traditional Italian flair. - Tiramisu: A classic finish to a very heavy meal. 🚢 Are you planning a Sun Princess Cruise? If you're an adventurous foodie or a die-hard steak lover, this might be your favorite spot on the ship. But if you prefer a traditional steakhouse experience, you might want to stick with the Crown Grill. What do you think? Does a $60 fixed menu sound worth it, or are specialty dining prices getting a bit out of hand? Let us know in the comments! 👇
