Carnival Cruise Line’s Italian restaurant Cucina Del Capitano is a mainstay on its ships, and the latest vessel Carnival Celebration is no exception.
When most people think of Cucina Del Capitano, they think of a big, filling dinner where you may or may not have to be rolled out of the restaurant by the time the meal is over.
What many may not know is that the venue is also open for lunch on sea days, offering a different, more compact menu that shouldn’t leave you quite as stuffed.
This venue is always included in the cruise fare for lunch, but on Carnival Celebration and her sister ship Mardi Gras, it’s also complimentary for dinner.
