Seabourn’s Cuisine Continues to Win Over Food Critics…And, If You Like: You.

I have spent much of my time over the past weeks discussing cuisine and what it means and can add or subtract from your cruise experience.

Today I was advised of a San Diego food critic’s blog “Matters of Taste” wherein she noted her first cruise ever was this past year on the Seabourn Spirit and it garnered mention in her “Memorable Morsels….My Favorite Foods of 2009” post.  Maureen Clancy wrote:

Three months after my first-ever CRUISE experience — on the Seabourn Spirit — I’m still in awe of chef Bjoern Wassmuth’s (left) performance. Crispy corn-crusted prawns with fennel slaw and romesco sauce; red carrot and curry potage with shrimp dumplings; warm ricotta and potato ravioli in truffle butter; chilled corn and lemon grass soup with lobster salad and spicy shrimp oil; swordfish Sicilian style with chili, capers, olives and basil…and much more. Each dish was picture-perfect and served by an attractive and amiable staff.

Many of you may recall that Chef Bjoern was “our” chef for the 2009 Goldring Travel Food & Wine Cruise.  He made a number of special treats for us including that wonderful grilled fresh Slovenian Sea Bass (served on deck) from the aquaculture farm we visited early in the day where we enjoyed sea bass both smoked and sashimi with fresh pressed oil oil and naturally harvested sea salt.  Another Goldring Travel exclusive!

If you have been following the writings of those on the Seabourn Odyssey World Cruise on The Gold Standard Luxury Travel Forum you know that that cuisine offered by Seabourn is “memorable” across the fleet!
