Or do we have to dine at their restaurants every night?
Answer :
Whenever you pay for a cruise, part of your fee covers lots of food. Believe me, there is plenty of free food...and it doesn't require you always eat in the main dining rooms. While water, juice, coffee, tea, hot chocolate, and lemonade are generally free, soda and alcohol are always extra.
The Elation has at least three places to eat:
Tiffany's Bar & Grill - a buffet restaurant
Inspiration Dining Room
Imagination Dining Room
Fodor's said:
"Two formal restaurants serve open-seating breakfast and lunch; dinner is served in four assigned evening seatings. The Lido restaurant serves buffet breakfast and lunch as well as pizza and serve-yourself ice cream; it's transformed nightly into the Seaview Bistro, a casual dinner alternative. Each ship has a patisserie and sushi bar. Room service is always available."

As for the alcohol question, start looking here: http://boards.cruisecritic.com/showthrea…
I love the cruisecritic.com message boards. It is a fantastic resource for finding out opinions about a cruise, excursions to take, and almost any cruise question you can think of.
Answer :
Food comes with your purchased cruise - and lots of it, different locations and styles.
For sneaking alcohol onboard, here is the Carnival policy on that:
A liquor and beverage consumption policy was created in order for Carnival to be able to control the liquor consumption of minors and the quantities consumed that lead to the disruptive behavior of others on board.
Liquor and Beverage Policy
Bringing Alcohol On Board - Embarkation
Guests are prohibited from bringing alcoholic beverages onboard. However, guests 21 years of age and older only may bring one bottle (750ml) of wine or champagne, per person, on board only during embarkation at the beginning of the cruise. A $10 corkage fee per bottle will be charged should you wish to consume this wine in the main dining room; $14 corkage fee per bottle in the Supper Club. Guests may bring a small quantity of non-alcoholic beverages. All prohibited alcohol, additional quantities of wine/champagne or excessive quantities of non-alcoholic beverages will be confiscated and discarded without compensation.
Large cooler restrictions:
Carnival Cruise Lines does not allow guests to bring large coolers on board its ships. However for purposes of housing small, personal-sized coolers no larger than 12” x 12” x 12” for the purpose of housing small quantities of non-alcoholic beverages and/or medications are permitted as carry-on luggage. Screening and movement of large coolers through embarkation is an impediment to the boarding and security screening process. Therefore, large coolers are not permitted as carry-on or checked luggage.
Ports-of-Call
Alcoholic beverages of any kind purchased in any Port-of-Call will be confiscated at the gangway, stored on board and retained by Carnival until the end of the voyage.
Gift Shops On Board
Alcoholic beverages of any kind purchased in the ship's gift shop will be stored on board and be retained by Carnival until the end of the voyage.
