Join us for a specialty dining experience at Crown Grill aboard Crown Princess. 🥩🍷

This video is a full step-by-step review of every course we enjoyed at the ship’s famous steakhouse. From fresh seafood appetizers to salads, bisques, juicy steaks, sides, and decadent desserts, we walk you through the menu and share our honest impressions.

Highlights include:
✔️ King prawns & seafood starters
✔️ Lobster bisque & fresh salads
✔️ Signature steaks (🤔maybe)
✔️ Delicious sides & sauces
✔️ Rich, indulgent desserts

If you’re considering booking Crown Grill on Crown Princess (or any Princess Cruises ship), this review will help you decide if it’s worth the specialty dining fee.

Deb & Matt Chat on YT: Want a STUNNING Cruise Experience? Crown Princess Sydney Night Sailaway

Deb & Matt Chat on YT: Want a STUNNING Cruise Experience? Crown Princess Sydney Night Sailaway

Posted by | Sep 19, 2025 | |

It’s Day 3 on Crown Princess, and today is a busy one! 🚢✨

We arrive in Sydney Harbour, and since this is a back-to-back cruise, we go through the turnaround process — disembarking, clearing customs, and re-boarding for the next leg. We also move into a new cabin and review the Premier Package we purchased for this segment.

Things take a twist when our DJI Pocket 3 camera dies, and Matt urgently leaves the ship to buy a replacement (and sneaks in some Sydney sightseeing along the way).

We wrap up this action-packed day with a stunning night-time sail away on Sydney Harbour followed by a delicious dinner at Sabatini’s Italian Trattoria.

📍 Itinerary: Sydney (Turnaround Day, Back-to-Back Cruise)
⚓ Ship: Crown Princess, Princess Cruises
