Italian cooking is all about family. And so is MSC Cruises.
Which made a special MSC Cruises night at Eataly restaurant a perfect fit.
MSC World America will feature the only Eataly at Sea when she launches in the Caribbean next week, with Open Jaw in attendance.
MSC gave select Toronto media a tasty preview at the downtown Toronto Eataly shop on 02APR.
Guests were treated to creamy, perfect burrata, pappardelle noodles with umami-rich mushrooms, and melt-in-your-mouth short rib, all paired with Italian wines.
Ian Patterson, Country Manager for MSC Cruises in Canada, told Open Jaw the company is very particular about its on-board offerings, making the renowned Eataly brand a tailor-made fit.
The Eataly at Sea on World America will offer exclusive dishes available only on board the ship. World America also will feature new Greek restaurant Paxos and other complimentary “fast casual” options to cater to every taste.
“Cruising is the only way to travel,” Patterson told the assembled group at Eataly Toronto. “Whether it’s a small, expedition ship sailing to the Shetland Islands or somewhere else in Europe, or the Caribbean or Dubai or South America, cruising is the best option. And MSC is the best cruise option.”
MSC has 23 ships in its fleet and sails to 250 world destinations. Following the debut of MSC World America next week, the company will later introduce MSC World Asia and MSC World Atlantic.
Yours truly sailed on the MSC World Europa in 2024 and had a terrific trip.
Patterson said MSC Cruises’ Canadian operation will celebrate its sixth anniversary next month. The company began with just four people, and now has 70 employees.
