DINING `Kali Orexi`
Kali means good and Orexi mean appetite in Greek. Dining has always been a joyous occasion in Greece. Hospitality and good food go hand-in-had at Royal Olympic Cruises, following a time-honoured tradition, since the days of Homer.
There are two dinner seatings on board, generally at 6:30 pm and 8:30 pm. Times vary depending upon the port of call. During breakfast and lunch, the dining room has an open seating. Using wholesome ingredients of the highest quality, we make all of our delicious meals and baked goods onboard. We offer elegant continental cuisine, delicious low-fat dishes, daily Greek specialties and enough varieth to please any palate. Every meal is a culinary event. The wine steward will offer you a diverse optional selection of fine wines to accompany your meal. For a treat, try some of our homemade baklava for dessert!
Of course, if you are still hungry, 24-hour complimentary cabin service is always available.
