Voyage of TASTE

Exploring the unique flavours of delicious internatio­nal dining is exactly what meaningful travel should be about.

-

Cruises were once elegant a airs – ships’ dining rooms filled with the gentle clink of polished forks against fine plates of first class food, the twinkle of wine glasses against a firmament of soft lamplight. And some cruises are still elegant. From Chef Curtis Stone’s sophistica­ted fresh food delights to quality gastro-pub comfort food and exploratio­ns in chocolate decadence, Princess Cruises  reminds its guests that they are on a voyage of discovery.

START SHARING

Outstandin­gly talented Chef Curtis Stone was creating amazing food in top restaurant­s in Britain when he began his journey from kitchen to television screen and best-selling author. As an award-winning chef, Curtis Stone’s life revolves around food and when we’re on holiday our lives tend to revolve around food too, so why not embrace it? Every ‘Crafted by Curtis’ on Princess Cruises dish reflects his personal charm, fantastic fresh food philosophy and love for simple seasonings. Delicious ‘Crafted by Curtis’ dishes are on the menu in the main dining rooms on all 18 Princess Cruises ships, while travellers on the Sun Princess , Ruby Princess and Emerald Princess can enter the world of ‘SHARE by Curtis Stone’, a specialty dining venue created to oŠer the perfect first class atmosphere to match the first class dishes designed by Chef Curtis Stone. It’s an enticing menu with an emphasis on sharing plates and meaningful connection with others.

DINING OUT ON BOARD

It will come as no surprise that being on a cruise ship often inspires a craving for fresh seafood. Sometimes we long for a tasty burger dripping (just a little!) with mouth-watering sauces, while other times we’re dreaming of our favourite Italian dish. Guests on a Princess Cruise can choose to dine out every night at restaurant­s inspired by local cuisine oŠering quality food, wine, cocktails and craft beer experience­s from steak to sashimi, chef’s table and balcony dining.

CHOCOLATE JOURNEYS

Tea Time with Chocolate Bites, Chocolate Love Pops, wine tasting with chocolate pairings, the ‘rich’ list of on-board taste experience­s continues. Master Chocolatie­r Norman Love has designed Chocolate Journeys for Princess Cruises to make exquisite, handcrafte­d treats available to guests every day and to put divine desserts on the menu of every ship. Chocolate-lovers can indulge at any hour of the day or night – there is a chocolate creation to match breakfast, lunch, dinner and every sweet little desire in between.

COME BACK FEELING NEW

Princess Cruises oŠers travellers a rejuvenati­ng retreat at sea. With 350 destinatio­ns and some of the best itinerarie­s in the world for individual­s, couples and families, life on board a Princess Cruise means that sampling delicious cuisine is just the beginning.
