Luxury cruise operator Regent Seven Seas Cruises has introduced innovative plant-based cuisine on menus across its fleet. The cruise line’s new gastronomic selections include more than 200 gourmet plant-based selections.
Regent’s new cuisine options will be available at breakfast, lunch and dinner and are designed to satisfy “the evolving tastes of luxury travelers who are following vegan or vegetarian lifestyles, or hunger to enjoy more plant-based fare,” said company officials, who also add more than nine of 10 plant-based meals are consumed by people who are not vegans.
The new offerings were developed by Regent’s culinary leadership under the direction of Bernhard Klotz, the company’s president of food and beverage in concert with famed chef, culinary instructor and author Christophe Berg.
New selections featured in the new menus include wild mushroom tart with brittle pie crust, mushroom duxelles and red pepper coulis; falafel fritters with harissa mayo; cucumber, mint, and capers; spiced potato and green pea samosas with tamarind chutney and summer berry pudding chantilly.
