    If you've never done cruise travel, you might have visions of 24-hour buffets and gaining the cruise ship 15. You would be right...BUT! Today's modern cruise ships are bringing top chefs on board, and new up-and-coming chefs, to offer guests high quality, creative cuisine.

    On Royal Caribbean's Anthem of the seas, there are 18 main restaurants from which to choose. From beautiful and delicious edible works of art at Izumi Japanese Cuisine to elevated gourmet pub food at Michael's Genuine Pubs to ultra modern inventive dishes at Wonderland, you'll feel like you are traveling the world while cruising at sea.

    Dynamic Dining Options on the Anthem of the Seas

    Anthem of the Seas offers two main dining options for guests:

    Dynamic Dining Choice gives you the freedom to pick and choose your restaurants and dining times each day and night. The unique venues feature menus that change throughout the cruise, with guest favorites and new specialty dishes to ensure everyone at the table will find something they love.

    Dynamic Dining Classic is a new cruise option for those who prefer the traditional main dining style with the same dining time each night, with the same wait staff and dining companions throughout the cruise. Dynamic Dining Classic is available on a first come, first serve basis.

    Anthem of the Seas restaurants include:

    • Jamie's Italian
    • Wonderland
    • Chic
    • Chops Grille
    • American Icon Grille
    • The Grande Restaurant
    • Michael's Genuine Pub
    • Silk
    • Coastal Kitchen
    • Devinly Decadence
    • Prime Table
    • Izumi Japanese Cuisine
    • Sorrento's
    • Johnny Rockets
    • Windjammer Marketplace
    • Seaplex Doghouse
    • The Cafe at Two70
    • Cafe Promenade

    Photos speak so much more about food than words often can. And since there's a lot of food to cover, here's a visual tour of some of the restaurants I had a chance to try during my Anthem of the Seas media cruise.

    Wonderland restaurant

    Fall down the Alice in Wonderland rabbit hole into a modern, stylish restaurant full of inventive cuisine. I absolutely love this restaurant concept! Royal Caribbean's Anthem of the Seas Dynamic Dining Experience on UrbanBlissLife.com Royal Caribbean's Anthem of the Seas Dynamic Dining Experience on UrbanBlissLife.com Royal Caribbean's Anthem of the Seas Dynamic Dining Experience on UrbanBlissLife.com

    Anthem of the Seas main buffet: Windjammer

    Windjammer is the ship's main buffet. It is LARGE and has all of the basics – bread, salads, soups, sides, desserts – plus main entrees featuring cuisine from all around the world. Before you enter, there is a mandatory hand washing station, too. I have to admit: that did help put my germaphob mind at ease while dining here one day for a late lunch! There's also an entire gluten-free station, too!

        This looks amazing. There is so much choice that you would have to sail on the ship more than once. I have never sailed on a Royal Caribbean cruise, but this is very tempting!

        Wow, these pictures are really making me wish I was going on a cruise soon! I went on one to Alaska a while back and the food was definitely one of my favorite parts... I probably gained ten pounds!

        Yummy, all the food looks delicious! I could really use some Japanese food right now. I would love to go on a cruise one day and I'll definitely pick a cruise with good dining opportunities, haha!
