Editorial Summary

The creators present a subjective ranking of the top five cruise lines for food, beginning with Carnival at number five. They highlight Carnival for its variety of included casual dining options, such as the Blue Iguana Cantina and Guy Fieri themed burger joints. Celebrity Cruises takes the fourth spot, noted for high quality standards in both main dining rooms and specialty venues, as well as partnerships with Top Chef. Crystal Cruises is ranked third, praised for a quality over quantity approach where luxury items like lobster are included in the cruise fare. Viking occupies the second position, recognized for its regional themed menus and high quality buffet and room service options. Oceania Cruises is named the number one cruise line for food due to its significant investment in ingredients, the influence of Master Chef Jacques Pepin across the fleet, and the inclusion of diverse, high end dining experiences like Red Ginger in the standard cruise fare.
