Creator's Key Takeaways

As frequent cruisers, this is how we avoid the embarkation day lunch chaos.

Instead of heading to the crowded buffet, we head to Cucina del Capitano, which is at the back of deck 11 on the Carnival Breeze.

The lunch on embarkation day and sea days, this is actually complimentary.

If you're looking for a quieter, more relaxed lunch on embarkation day, this is it.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Go to Cucina del Capitano on deck 11 for a quiet, complimentary pasta lunch on embarkation day and sea days.
Fill out the menu to choose your pasta, sauce, and toppings, and you can return for more.

About our Bacon Score methodology
YouTube Video Description

Most people head straight to the buffet on embarkation day — but frequent cruisers know a quieter, better option. On Carnival Breeze, you can go to Cucina del Capitano for a complimentary, made-to-order pasta lunch on embarkation day and sea days. While the Lido buffet is crowded and chaotic, this restaurant is often nearly empty while cabins aren’t ready yet. You fill out a menu, choose your pasta, sauce, and toppings, and they make it fresh — and you can go back for more. This has become one of our go-to embarkation day routines after cruising many times. If you’re sailing Carnival soon, this is a tip you’ll want to use. #carnivalcruise #carnivalbreeze #cruisetips #embarkationday #cruisefood #traveltips
