Prima Notte at Palo

Hello!
What exactly is Prima Notte and how is it set up? Is it tasting the various wines they have out and you have bite-size appetizers with it? Trying to figure out exactly what this is. Cheers!

When my husband and I did Prima Notte last September on the Dream, it was set up as a series of wines and small bites served at the table. We listened while the Palo sommelier described each wine and the accompanying plate before or as we were served them. I think there were 4 sets. It was light enough that we were still hungry enough for our late-seating dinner afterwards, but not for dessert.

We just did Prima Notte on the Fantasy in September. We were seat at a table- we had our own for two, but most tables seated 6. We were early enough that we were asked and had a choice. The sommelier is introduced and then the head chef. He disappears and the Sommelier is your guide through the experience. You are then presented with a series of 4 wines/one is a champagne and small plate of food. The pairing is explained. Appetizer, First, Main and Dessert are served. We are foodies, so we loved it! For some it is light enough that you need more food. For us, it was just right and only needed a small snack later and not a full dinner. We received a lovely pin at the end. It was a B2B anniversary cruise for us, so it was just perfect and a great break from the main dinning room for us.
