Jamie’s Italian by Jamie Oliver - Speciality
For a family-style meal made with seasonal ingredients and authentic Tuscan recipes, Jamie's Italian by Jamie Oliver is a mouthwatering choice. Crafted by one of Britain’s most famous chefs, dishes include fresh homemade pastas, Italian classics and contemporary creations with a rustic touch. A perennial favourite is the Truffle Tagliatelle served in a decadent cream sauce scented with a dash of nutmeg. Or try Jamie’s iconic Prawn Linguine–a heavenly infusion of vine-ripe tomatoes, garlic, saffron, chilli and arugula sauteed with tender prawns. If you’re in the mood for beef, the chianti-braised short rib is the ultimate fall-off-the-bone saucy goodness, served with parmesan mash and horseradish gremolata.
A new addition to the Grand Windjammer Marketplace, the Noodle Bar is serving up delish in a bowl. The youngest members of the family–older ones too!--will enjoy the live chef demonstrations as well as the delicate noodles made fresh daily. This dining option is part of a tasty international lineup found at the Marketplace, including Sorrento’s Pizza for the best cheesy pie east of Italy!
A great hot dog is one of life’s messy pleasures, and at The Dog House you’ll discover a sampling of delicious sausages. Sink your teeth into the traditional Coney Island Dog, served with a generous drizzle of ketchup, mustard and relish. Tuck into the old world tastes of the sauerkraut-topped German Thuringer. Go for the tongue-tickling spice of The Smoke House, a pork bratwurst packed with flavour. Or opt for one of the creative combos, like the juicy chicken sausage and apple. Whatever your taste buds dictate, The Dog House is one place you’ll love to frequent!
A meal at Sichuan Red® is an expression of culinary beauty, balance and harmony. Begin your experience with the Royal Sea Cucumber, a palate-pleasing delicacy exquisitely prepared. For a soul-satisfying soup, the steaming bowl of pickled radish and duck is a must-have. Another guest favourite is the Kao Yu simmer pot, with deep-fried fish, vegetables and tofu dipped in a spice-laced broth. For a memorable finale, top your dinner with the sweet fried balls with a sesame paste centre. A Children’s Menu with tasty kid-approved options is available for the young members of your party.
