CARNIVAL Cruise Line has revealed additional details about its Italian-themed La Piazza zone, on board its new Mardi Gras, set to debut in May.
The cruise line chose last week’s National Pizza Day to showcase La Piazza, which will be home to a variety of new food & beverage outlets, as well as expanded versions of longtime Carnival favourites.
Designed to resemble a red brick Italian courtyard, La Piazza features street lights, ornate iron and tile work, as well as murals of famous Italian piazzas, such as those located in Rome, Venice and more.
New spaces include Bar della Rosa (pictured), inspired by Italy’s prepossessing cafes, with classic Italian wines, beers, and cocktails all available, such as the Aperol Spritz.
Espresso and cappuccinos will also be served, made with Lavazza coffee.
Also featuring in the new area will be Piazza Panini, serving up hand-pressed sandwiches such as Salumeria served with capicola, prosciutto, salami, provolone, roasted peppers, mortadella, mozzarella, tomatoes and spicy olives, as well as a number of deli favourites and desserts.
La Piazza also features “Insta-worthy” touches like a Vespa scooter and a Fiat (inset), both from 1972 – the year of Carnival’s founding with the original Mardi Gras.
