MSC World Asia adds more free dining

MSC Cruises' newest ship, MSC World Asia, will feature its largest selection of complimentary dining options to date when it begins seven-night Mediterranean sailings on December 4.

The ship will offer 20 dining venues, including five main dining restaurants, six speciality dining concepts, two buffets and seven fast-casual and on-the-go options. Across the ship, guests will also find more than 40 bars, lounges and restaurants.

New casual dining concepts

Among the additions is Aqua Food Market, a new poolside venue on the Aqua Deck featuring five food stalls serving freshly prepared dishes from international cuisines. The menu will include salads, loaded fries, sandwiches, pita breads and desserts, with guests able to eat at the venue or take their meals back to the pool.

Also located on the Aqua Deck, Buffet Grab & Go will provide ready-to-eat snacks for guests between activities.

The ship's new Pan-Asian Street Food concept will include a complimentary daytime takeaway counter serving street-food-inspired bites, including crispy seafood balls and bao buns. The wider venue will combine this offering with a speciality restaurant and bar.
