• Answer:

  If you drink a lot of soda's, the drinks option is probably a good idea. Here's an extract about the restaurants on the Spirit from http://www.cruisemates.com/articles/reviews/ncl/spirit.cfm "There are two main dining rooms onboard Norwegian Spirit: the Garden Room and Windows, which evokes the luxurious ocean liners of yesteryear with its hushed candlelit elegance and gigantic Palladian windows. NCL's "Freestyle Cruising" allows passengers to choose when and with whom to dine. Beyond the traditional dining rooms, there's Cagney's Steakhouse, on Deck 7 behind the Grand Centrum, which charges $20 per-person and serves steaks and chops and whole lobsters in a 1930s-ish setting. In Le Bistro, NCL's French restaurant (surcharge $15), appetisers include escargot in garlic butter, and a generous array of salads is offered. Order chocolate fondue -- chunks of fresh fruit served in a pineapple "boat" with a pot of melted chocolate to dip it in - for dessert. The Thai/Japanese/Chinese Shogun ($12.50) serves gorgeous Asian-fusion dishes. The complex also includes a Teppanyaki room and sushi bar (a la carte pricing applies), and a Tatami Room where eight guests sit on the floor to dine. The least impressive of Spirit's dining areas, The Lido buffet, often has long lines. In the evenings, it's converted into a fee-free Italian restaurant -- La Trattoria." Personally I liked La Trattoria, I thought the food was really good.
