Travel is an exhilarating treat for the senses, and when you sail with Regent Seven Seas Cruises®, you can expect An Unrivalled Experience®. Offering lavish personal space and every luxury, The World’s Most Luxurious Fleet™ sets the stage for an incredible journey punctuated by scenic destinations, exciting cultural experiences and tempting new flavours.
Regent believes that nothing enhances their guests’ journey quite like cuisine. It brings people from all walks of life together and reveals so many insights into the local culture. Such is their passion for authentic flavours, culinary adventures and fine wines that they invite you to indulge your palate and curiosity with the most comprehensive culinary programming on the seven seas. This passion for gastronomy and fine wine goes way beyond the mouth-watering and refined dining experiences on board and is brought to life through tastings, excursions and even special Epicurean Spotlight voyages featuring talks from celebrated vintners and chefs.
SAVOUR A SENSE OF EPICUREAN INDULGENCE™
Step on board any Regent ship, and you will find 24-hour Room Service, delicious regional barbecues served at the Pool Grill and a range of speciality restaurants to tempt you – all included in your experience.
Take a seat in the elegant surroundings of Compass Rose, Regent’s largest restaurant with a broad-ranging menu and the ability to easily customise your meal. Visit Chartreuse for an exquisite taste of classic French fare with a modern twist. Choose Prime 7 to discover a refined steakhouse experience where prime, dry-aged beef is the undisputed star of the menu; Pacific Rim for a diverse array of delightfully prepared Pan-Asian dishes, or La Veranda, where stunning ocean views are the perfect complement to an elegant breakfast and lunch buffet. Each night La Veranda transforms into Sette Mari at La Veranda across the fleet, bringing you a delicious dinner menu of authentic Italian specialities and fine wines. Wherever you dine, rest assured that the culinary team’s dedication to Epicurean Perfection™ can be tasted in every dish.
Regent also understands that sometimes simplicity is what’s desired. Dining is always whenever and wherever you choose, or you can opt for course-by-course in-suite meals for a more private culinary experience.
ENJOY EPICUREAN EXPLORATIONS™
Ashore, an exciting range of Included & Unlimited shore excursions explores the culinary specialities and traditions of the region, plus Regent Choice excursions and Chef-led tours (available for a supplement) offer a next-level experience:
– A DELICIOUS TASTE OF TRAVEL WITH REGENT SEVEN SEAS CRUISES®
After a panoramic drive around St. Barts, savour an extraordinary three-course meal at a waterfront restaurant in Le Sereno, an iconic hotel on a private beach that rims Grand Cul-de-Sac Bay. A dedicated concierge describes how each course is prepared before serving.
– TUNA DISMANTLING SHOW – SHIMIZU, JAPAN
Watch a freshly caught whole tuna being cut up or dismantled for sashimi, which you will enjoy for lunch. It is a true art form that requires a long apprenticeship in Japan, especially for chefs entrusted to dismantle a tuna that may cost almost a million euros. As a prelude to the experience, you will visit the Fujisan Hongu Sengen Taisha Shrine.
– COOKING CLASS IN KLINCI – KOTOR, MONTENEGRO
Learn how to prepare several classic Montenegrin dishes in a hands-on cooking class and then dine on your delectable concoctions. Depending on what is freshest, you may prepare a dish with fish, octopus or squid as the main ingredient. Likely, you’ll also make kacamak, a simple potato side dish. Both will be served as your lunch, along with a glass of local wine.
– VINEYARD WALK & TASTING WITH NATHALIE – BORDEAUX, FRANCE
In the world’s wine capital, tour a verdant vineyard of Merlot grapes with one of the owners. Learn the challenges of earning an organic wine certification and enjoy sampling three wines thoughtfully paired with tapas.
– KING CRAB SAFARI* – NORTH CAPE (HONNINGVÅG), NORWAY
If you’re up for a true Far North adventure, this crab-catching and cooking experience fits the bill perfectly. You’ll board a deep-sea raft with your professional driver/guide and zip off towards Sarnes fjord to inspect and harvest King Crab pots. Finally, you’ll come ashore at an indigenous Sami camp where the fresh crab bounty will be cooked around an open fire.
– LESSONS IN THE CULINARY ARTS
If you’re keen to improve your skills in the kitchen, the Culinary Arts Kitchen aboard Seven Seas Grandeur™, Seven Seas Splendor® and Seven Seas Explorer® offers the opportunity for some Epicurean Enrichment™. Featuring fully equipped top-of-the-line workstations and highly individualised instruction from experienced chef instructors, lessons vary by cruise and focus on everything from healthy eating to classic French cooking techniques, wine pairing, regional cuisines and knife skills. Foodie heaven!
