The Crystal Dining Room is one of the most elegant rooms at sea, with beautiful table settings and large windows. I loved the china pattern, and the ancient map motif was perfect for travelers. Tables are set for 2, 4, 6, or 8, and passengers can request the table size and seating time.
The menus in the Crystal Symphony Dining Room should suit anyone's taste. The left side of the menu always listed the following options:
- Chef's suggestions
- On the lighter side
- Vegetarian selections
- Low-carb choices
- Head sommelier's suggestions
The right side of the menu listed the standard menu -- appetizers, soup and salad, pasta special, salad entree, main fares, traditional main fares, and side orders. There was always an appetizing fish, beef, and chicken dish.
The dessert menu was a much anticipated delight, with
- interesting sweet concoctions
- ice cream, frozen yogurt, sherbet, or
- the cheese trolley
An excellent selection of wine is available by the bottle or the glass, with most at reasonable prices.
