Dinner at the main hotel restaurant can include a proper seafood risotto with mussels, salmon, shrimp, and squid, with a real portion of seafood rather than just a garnish.

Breakfast is much simpler than dinner: made-to-order eggs with extra fillings are generally not available. At most, staff may sprinkle some cheese on top from a prepared tray, with no other mix-ins offered.

Basic breakfast items mentioned included eggs, flatbread, rice, and cabbage soup. Some familiar products may be missing or unsuitable for certain diets, so travelers sometimes buy extra fruit, fish, tomatoes, and juice separately; salads are best taken early.
