Wiesbaden, April 16, 2015 – As a part of the Norwegian NEXT programme, Norwegian Cruise Line is investing significantly into enhancing guests’ dining experience on board and offering even more culinary options to provide the best cruise holiday experience.

“Norwegian’s Freestyle Dining is the most fun  and flexible way for guests to enjoy some of the best dining experiences at sea, when they want and how they want”, said Andy Stuart, President and Chief  Operating Officer of Norwegian Cruise Line. “We are thrilled to continue that legacy by providing guests with more of the food they have come to love and  enjoy with the introduction of fleetwide complimentary Asian cuisine.”

Guests cruising aboard Norwegian’s Freestyle Cruising ships can indulge in favourites like fried rice, spicy seafood udon noodles, steamed pork dumplings and more free of charge at the following  venues:

  • Orchid Garden, Norwegian Gem
  • East Meets West, Pride of America
