The debut of Carnival’s Mardi Gras also saw the debut of several new dining venues for the cruise line, including Shaquille O’Neal’s Big Chicken and Emeril Lagasse’s Emeril’s Bistro 1396.
Another new restaurant that debuted on Mardi Gras is Rudi’s Seagrill by Chef Rudi Sodamin. Sodamin has already been a fixture in the Carnival Corporation company, serving as the Consultant Master Chef for Holland America Line.
