Taste is more than a sense. Because tastes are personal. And that of course means they're also a choice. Which is why MSC Magnifica offers an immense variety on board to satisfy all likings and moods.
There are 17 different bars and lounges, ranging from the striking graphic effects of the Tiger Bar music locale to the impressive scale of L'Ametista lounge and cosy intimacy of Le Gocce. There's a Cuba Lounge cigar room with spirits bar and a Cyber Café. Outside in the open air, Il Bar del Sole serves drinks and snacks for the solarium and hydromassage pools with their melting views.
L'Olimpiade, the sports bar, combines stunningly creative décor on the theme of the Olympics with equally creative cuisine. How about mixed citrus fruit stuffed with fresh octopus salad and served with croutons? Or chicken breast cooked in balsamic vinegar on a bed of fresh baby rocket and marinated tomatoes? There are of course vegetarian options too, like gorgonzola mousse with pears and walnuts. And there's even a giant tapas platter so you can share the full variety with friends. Now that's the food of champions!
Moving amidships takes you from the Olympics to the jewel-like Oriental Plaza. Seating just 54 in an intimate ambience of deep gold, black lacquer,floral prints and dragons, it's the perfect setting to slowly savour a widerange of Chinese, Indian, Indonesian, Thai and Japanese delicacies. From Dim Sum and Sushi to curried monkfish, you can explore exquisitely authentic specialities, concentrating on the country of your choice or going on a gastronomic tour of the Far East - all in one feast!
The plush paired restaurants L'Edera and I Quattro Venti are on an entirely different scale, stacked on two decks, yet still offering cosy corners and totally authentic cuisine. This time Italian cuisine, with dishes from a different region every evening! Set your taste buds tingling with Campania stewed cuttlefish one night and Sardinian suckling pig with myrtle the next, mirroring your cruise in a delightful gastronomic journey of discovery.
High in the stern adjoining the pool complex are the Sahara Buffet and L'Oasi restaurant. Both feature sumptuous décor with Moorish influences, while L'Oasi also boasts breathtaking panoramic sea views and a no less stunning gourmet menu. Complementing the ambiance, you'll find creations that use typical Mediterranean ingredients with a twist, such as rack of lamb encased in crushed pistachio on a green peppercorn and potato bake with a light black cherry sauce.
But that's not all. Because L'Oasi and MSC Magnifica offer you a world first for any cruise ship, the opportunity to treat yourself to the masterpieces of the world-famous chef Mauro Uliassi. If you've already heard of him, you'll know this is something truly sensational. And if you haven't, it will be enough to learn that his restaurant Uliassi Cucina di Mare in Senigallia on the Adriatic coast not only won 2 Michelin stars and 3 Gambero Rosso forks last year, but also received the Kungsfenan Swedish Seafood Award for the best seafood restaurant in the world. Buon appetito!
MSC Magnifica is as generous with the pleasures of the glass as those of the plate. Her superbly-stocked wine cellars offer an exceptional range and choice, including some truly astonishing vintages. Other liquid luxuries include a coffee bar that not only serves a superlative traditional espresso blend, but a choice of single origin coffees for the connoisseur, hot liqueur coffees for the hedonist and sublime iced coffee cocktails for pure ecstasy. A complete spectrum of traditional and not so traditional cocktails is available in the bars and casino, not to mention freshly-squeezed fruit juices and herbal and traditional teas from China to India and Japan.
Wherever you are on MSC Magnifica, at whatever time of day, you'll find a rainbow of taste sensations awaits to make every occasion truly special and every memory a moment to savour.
