Welcome to the Royal Caribbean blog podcast.

A week to look into the world of rural Caribbean cruising.

I'm your host, Matt Hotschberg, and this is episode number 414.

I love going on cruises for not only a fun thing you can do and places you can visit, but for the food.

I've got a countdown this week of the top five things that I've eaten so far in a cruise ship this year.

Here we go.

Thank you. things that I've eaten so far in a cruise ship this year. Here we go. I was thinking about all the stuff I've done on a cruise so far, and I was considering, obviously, the two sailings have done

on adventure of the seas, and one sailing I've done so far on Freedom of the Seas, and I'm

very lucky to have gone on this many cruises so quickly at the on start

of sailing's beginning again. And I was kind of looking back, kind of reflecting on what I did,

what I enjoyed. And inevitably, my mind constantly was wandering towards what I ate. I love

eating on cruises. I love the food they offer. It's a combination of familiar favorites,

as well as just brand new dishes that I've never tried, never thought of trying, thought about

trying, but didn't want to pay for it, or a combination of all that, right? And I love that there's a

great variety of choices, whether it is complimentary or extra cost. There's just a lot to like. And

coming back on Royal Caribbean for me was more than a homecoming in the sense of being on a cruise ship

and walking down the Royal Promenade and be like, I'm home, right? And I certainly had that

feeling. But a lot of what I was missing was also the amazing food.

I love the different choices you have on there.

And in my opinion, there are definitely some foods that are signature Royal Caribbean classics,

things that you just associate mentally, as I do, with going on a cruise.

And so this week, I wanted to count down the top five things that I've eaten so far on a cruise.
