China,
Mongolia, the Philippines, Indonesia, Singapore and Vietnam’s
regional cuisines are the inspiration for Carnival Sunshine’s brand
new, full service restaurant, Ji Ji Asian Kitchen. Located aft
on Lido Deck, the Far East menu features mouth-watering creations and
diverse delicacies.
Seven
different appetizers, seven different entrees and an assortment of
classic sides and soups with a new twist make up the menu. A sample
of the menu:
- Nanjiing-style duck appetizers
- Chicken Spring Rolls with lemon marmalade, curry leaves, pink grapefruit and cilantro pearls
- Slow-braised Wagyu beef short rib with watermelon radish
- Chicken & Cilantro Root Soup
- Sweet & Sour Fragrant Shrimp
- Hakka Style Noodles
Don’t
forget to leave room for desert as it’ll include an assortment of
Asian-themed options including Rose Crème Brulee with ginger cream
and Fried Wontons wrapped with lychee fruit with tapioca pearls and
coconut milk. In addition to the normal full bar service, Ji Ji Asian
Kitchen will also offer Japanese beers.
Elegant
surroundings and clever decorative touches such as hanging light
fixtures and Chinese prayer rolls provide ambiance in the restaurant.
Dinner
will be a $12 per person change for adults; $5 for children 11 and
under. For lighter fare, at lunch, the restaurant will offer
complimentary custom-made noodle dishes.

2013. Carnival Sunshine will offer nine- and 12-day Mediterranean
