Celebrity Eclipse Cruise Preview: Look at the Food! [PHOTOS]

Celebrity Cruises recently debuted the Eclipse on a pre-inaugural cruise out of Miami. The beautified ship has ten restaurants including Qsine, Tuscan Grille, Ocean View Cafe and Blu where we had the pleasure of eating nom noms.

We were pleasantly surprised by all the fun food Celebrity’s Vice President of Culinary Operations Chef Jacques Van Staden whipped up at Qsine. We loved unwinding and snacking on small bites and tea treats at the Ocean View Cafe overlooking the water. Here’s a preview of the bites on board. Coming next, the many ways to imbibe on this boat.
