The MSC Poesia:our new poem on the horizon.

Poetry is like the sea, lulling us with gentle swells and stirring the emotions.As poetry brings us pleasure the MSC Poesia will introduce a new dimension of enjoyment to a holiday on a magnificent and innovative ship. From a balcony overlooking the ocean and a star filled sky accompanied by the sounds of a Verdi aria, mingling with the samba rhythms from the poolside party... an abundance of emotions will flow. Feelings that will turn into pleasurable memories, to be replayed, like a poet's images, time and time again.

From breakfast in the morning to the midnight buffet, there are several dining options available aboard MSC Cruise. Have a continental breakfast delivered to the privacy of your stateroom, enjoy a casual outdoor lunch by the pool from the grill or pizzeria or partake in a more elaborate lunch in one of the dining rooms.

Dinner is always a special occasion-the Italian meal itself is an art form! Traditional Italian cuisine with new world flair. During our renowned seven-course dinner menu, experience the zest of flavors and gaiety of colors from an authentic Mediterranean cucina-garlic, olives, basil, red pepper and tomatoes-in our traditional family recipes. Our well-trained dining staff serves regional specialties creatively prepared from scratch by our chefs as well as classic favorites.

Wine connoisseurs will savor the selections after enjoying a superb meal, partake in a delightful dessert! From Italian treats of tiramisu and cannolis to your favorite cakes, pastries and tarts! If you're celebrating a special occasion-a birthday, retirement, honeymoon or anniversary-do it with classic operatic drama: a cakes and an Italian serenade. So " Buon Appetito!"
