Cruise Chefs Cater to Dietary Restrictions
While cruise lines have long offered a limited menu for passengers on special diets -- whether due to food allergies or intolerances, weight loss or simply healthy lifestyle choices - they are going much further in 2015. Royal Caribbean's Devinly Decadence on Quantum of the Seas, which debuted late last year, is an eatery in which all dishes have fewer than 500 calories. SeaDream Yacht Club didn't want to leave anyone out when it enhanced its tea service with gluten-free cookies so all can partake. In 2015, we expect to see cruise lines continue to make more (and tastier) food options for travelers with dietary restrictions, beyond the confines of the main dining room and without having to preorder.
