What is the Food Like On MSC Cruises?

Key Moments
Editorial Summary
The creators evaluate the dining experiences on the MSC Virtuosa, comparing the buffet, main dining room, and specialty restaurants. During a breakfast buffet inspection, they find mixed results, praising the bacon and hash browns but criticizing the black pudding, stale bread, and dense pastries. The buffet dinner is described as subpar, with the creators noting a lack of variety and bland curry. In contrast, the specialty dining experiences receive high praise. They describe the Asian fusion restaurant as delicious and the Indochina restaurant as the best meal on the ship, specifically highlighting the flavorful Vietnamese cuisine and excellent service. While the specialty meals are significantly more expensive than those on other cruise lines, the creators conclude that the quality of the food in these venues is stunning compared to the buffet. They ultimately characterize the overall food experience on MSC as hit and miss, noting that while the ships are spectacular, the buffet quality often fails to meet expectations.
