Grand Princess: The Grand Opening
Posted on: May 6, 2011
In this final installment in Princess Cruises‘ Grand Princess drydock video diary, the passengers have boarded. Martyn proudly showcases the new Piazza-style atrium’s many features, as well as the Crown Grill. On hand to help celebrate the ship’s Grand Opening are many Princess Cruises executives and crew members, including Executive Chef Alfredo Marzi (for whom the new Alfredo’s Pizzaria is named), the Grand Princess’s Sommelier, Maitre d’ and others.
The pastries and coffee in the International Cafe look very tempting, the Sommelier mentions a few exquisite wines available onboard, Chef Marzi serves Martyn the first pizza made in his new namesake restaurant, and the ambience in the new Crown Grill is superb.
And if you’ve been following my posts about the Grand Princess’s renovations, you know that’s just a few of the new features onboard. What a magnificent new ship the Grand Princess has become!
In this episode of Princess Cruises‘ video diary of the Grand Princess renovations, the cruise director shows us the progress being made to many areas of the ship, including a few Princess Cruises‘ signature features such as:
The Piazza (formerly the Atrium; now being outfitted to include Vines Wine Bar, the International Cafe, and Alfredo’s Pizzaria — named after Princess Cruises’ Executive Chef Alfredo Marzi);
The Crown Grill, with its exhibition-style kitchen;
and the casino and new oceanview suites.
