This video is all about the controversial topic and venue known as The Kitchens on the all new Marella Voyager.
There is no buffet restaurant onboard this ship so check out this video as we walk you through all you need to know about what has replaced the buffet on board and what we and others thought about the change.
Footage taken during our 7 night Treasures of the Mediterranean cruise which was the inaugural cruise for this ship.

Well done guys in another great vlog. Very well explained. I think the concept of The Kitchen will be a great success and will prevent food waste and is more hygienic. I can well identify the problem with the traditional buffet, after putting varied food items on your plate, once you get it back to the table it doesn’t look very appealing 😂

Great video guys! I have a question - did you try the Greek food? What was it like? Also, do they have the traditional gyros going round on the spit?
@travelwithjonnyandwill

Yes we did I had the chicken thigh, pitta, vegetable sewer with humus and a dressing which I cannot remember the name of. They did have the gyros meat that was spinning behind the counter. You can sort of see it in the footage but I didn’t take a close up. Thanks for watching

Thanks for the explanation of how this works... It looks brilliant! Much more choice! There doesn't seem to be as much seating as in the buffets on the explorers from what i can see... Was this ever a problem that you noticed? 😊

We felt it was the opposite. We thought there were more tables and chairs in the Kitchens compared to the other Explorer ships. We never struggled finding a table to sit at. Thanks for watching our videos 👍

Many thanks for the insight into the kitchens concept but it does not appear to be something we would like just give us an old fashioned buffet and be done with it Marella.

After the wonderful experiences we have had on the Discovery ships why change it? It appears Voyager is not for us. Thanks for the info fellers.

I really love a Marella cruise booked Discovery 2 for a week around the med,I prefer the Discovery 2 over Voyager just for the atrium and the walking track around the whole ship.

It sounds like they're essentially trying to take on Virgin with this one - not sure how keen I am for them to move away from the traditional buffets. I'll be really interested to see how this develops over the next couple of years...

Thanks for watching. It does seem more efficient than the old style buffets being served to you. It’s not to everyone’s liking but there are so many other places to eat onboard if you don’t like The Kitchens.
