Private Dining Experience with Paired Wines
After cooking up a storm, guests are invited to celebrate their new culinary skills in a private dining room adjacent to the Chef’s Kitchen. The dishes you’ve prepared are served in an elegant setting, accompanied by wines expertly selected by the ship’s sommeliers to perfectly complement each dish. It’s the ideal way to cap off the experience—enjoying a private, exclusive meal with new friends, all while savoring the dishes you’ve made and the knowledge you’ve gained.
An Evolving Culinary Experience with Every Port of Call
