New dinner menus, enhanced local sourcing and
expanded "Shopping with the Chef" highlight Seabourn's
destination-focused culinary direction
SEATTLE, June 17,
2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Seabourn, the leader in
ultra-luxury and expedition travel, is expanding its culinary
program to deepen guests' connection to the destinations they
explore. From elevated menus inspired by global flavors to expanded
chef-led shore excursions and reimagined onboard dining concepts,
these enhancements reflect Seabourn's commitment to creating
authentic and immersive dining experiences at sea.
At the heart of the enhancements is a renewed focus on regional
authenticity and fresh, locally sourced ingredients. Executive
chefs across Seabourn's fleet dedicate time ashore forging
relationships with small purveyors and markets to secure the best
regional ingredients, which are reflected in the onboard offerings
and experiences. The result is a destination-inspired dining
experience where the dishes tell a story of the people, places and
cultures behind them.
"Seabourn has long set the standard in culinary excellence, and
these enhancements reflect our ongoing commitment to
destination-driven experiences," said Mark Tamis, president of
Seabourn. "After traveling across the fleet and listening closely
to our guests, onboard teams, and travel partners, we're exploring
even more ways to spotlight regional flavors and locally sourced
ingredients, with freshness and flavor at the heart of every dish.
When it comes to sourcing locally, we believe more is more, and
there's more to come."
Local Sourcing Elevates Onboard Dining
With a deep
commitment to source the freshest local ingredients and to elevate
onboard dining experiences to the highest levels, Seabourn is
increasing and elevating its regional cuisine offerings to continue
to celebrate the authentic flavors of the world. Seabourn's
regional menus feature even more destination-specific dishes, such
as locally and sustainably sourced wild Alaskan salmon. Guests
might sip a boutique wine sourced that same morning or enjoy a
honey pairing curated from a local farm. Signature moments include
a fresh seafood tasting following a wildlife tour in Wrangell, Alaska.
More Fresh Seafood, More Often
Fresh-caught seafood
will be featured prominently across all dining venues, with
rotating Chef's Specials at The Restaurant, and grill events at The
Patio. In addition, culinary shore excursions will also be offered,
including:
- Live cooking demo and hands-on seafood preparation with a local
chef to experience Alaska's
flavors, such as fresh crab and salmon in Alaska
- Oyster shucking at a farm in Prince
Edward Island, Canada
