Dine in Style Onboard Celebrity Cruises®

08-Nov-2023

Get ready to dine in style when you sail with Celebrity Cruises where world-class dining, Michelin-starred chefs, and endless options awaits, inspired from the destinations visited by Celebrity and all hand-crafted from the highest quality ingredients. Each restaurant celebrates culinary styles around the world along with a selection of exclusive, regionally inspired dishes and drinks.

A Unique Culinary Experience

Celebrity Cruises is synonymous with fine dining, boasting some of the most cutting-edge culinary experiences at sea. Celebrity Edge® leads the way, home to the celebrated Magic Carpet®, the world’s first cantilevered platform which transforms into a unique venue for dining and drinks. Experiential cuisine encapsulates Eden Restaurant, with an open-air kitchen, epicurean plates and a veritable treat for the senses. Watch an animated character prepare and cook your meal on a virtual plate in front of you at Le Petit Chef®, embarking on a mind-blowing gourmet journey from the minute you place your order. There’s also ample opportunity to channel your inner wine connoisseur, with a fantastic selection of intimate bars and al fresco terraces to enjoy a chilled glass of white.

A Choice of Four Main Restaurants

When you sail with Celebrity Cruises, choose from not one but four main complimentary restaurants - Normandie, Tuscan, Cosmopolitan, and Cyprus each with it’s own ambience and atmosphere.

At the Main Restaurant fine dining awaits with dishes expertly designed by a Michelin-starred chef, as you discover new favourite flavours, elevated classics, as the creative depends on the destination, such as vegetable paella inspired by Barcelona nights, roasted quail from California, or smoked Atlantic salmon.

Treat your palate at Cyprus, with a light Mediterranean menu including fresh seafood, as you begin with exclusive menu items, from mouthwatering seabass ceviche to lemon-dill chicken souvlaki.

Normandie is an elegant eatery where full-bodied wines pair perfectly with French starters including chicken pate, baked brie, and potato and gruyere tarts. Entrees exclusive to Normandie include dishes such as cassoulet of confit duck and salmon roasted with wild lavender as the onboard chefs fuse refined flavours with unexpected profiles and beautiful plating in an upscale atmosphere.

Inspired by new American, Cosmopolitan is available on Celebrity Apex® and Celebrity Edge®, offering everything from New York strip steak and a classic shrimp cocktail starter to home-style pork chops with string beans and sweet potato.

Speciality Restaurants

Celebrity Cruises see no reason why you can’t have every type of cuisine your heart desires whilst you’re on holiday, which is why Celebrity dining options include specialty restaurants to cater to your every craving, from traditional filets and ribeyes at Fine Cut Steakhouse to sushi at Raw on Five, or you can indulge in backyard BBQ, grilled favourites, and smoked classics al fresco at Rooftop Garden Grill.

Cutting-edge Luminae is reserved for guests of The Retreat® as this exclusive private restaurant boasts menus crafted by Chef Daniel Boulud, Celebrity Cruises Global Culinary Brand Ambassador, as well as Michelin-starred chef, Cornelius Gallagher. As the menu at Luminae is exclusive, you won’t find these dishes anywhere else on board with sample menu items including Alaskan halibut, Maine lobster tagliatelle, truffle risotto, and creamy burrata with pesto.

Blu is exclusively for AquaClass® guests, and features a spa-inspired menu that emphasises a holistic health experience. In the morning, stop in for farm-fresh eggs, muesli, or a fresh-pressed juice and Blu is open for breakfast and dinner each day, with a daily changing healthy dinner menu.

Styled after a Parisian patisserie, Le Grand Bistro is the perfect place for afternoon tea, warm pastries and croissants, or a ham-and-cheese baguette. Gourmet charcuterie and cheese boards with carafes of wine transition the bistro from the bustle of morning to a relaxed, candlelit evening.

Stimulate your senses at Murano, where you will find Celebrity’s take on classic French fare from veal tenderloin to herb-crusted lamb. Make sure you also try the Five Senses Menu, true indulgence which presents six courses and wine pairings.

With all the charm and sophistication of an Italian trattoria, Tuscan Grille features a menu of handmade pastas, artisanal meats, and fine wine, and you can take your pick of flatbread pizzas, gnocchi, carbonara, frutti de mare, and quality butcher cuts.

Magic Carpet

Celebrity Cruises boasts some of the most cutting-edge culinary experiences at sea, with Celebrity Edge® leading the way, and home to the celebrated Magic Carpet®, the world’s first cantilevered platform which transforms into a unique venue for dining and drinks. Prepare for some of the best views at sea as the Magic Carpet® is 13 storeys above sea level, as you soar over the open ocean enjoying a unique menu with comfortable seating, a full bar, and space for live music performances.

Whichever ship you choose to board with Celebrity, you are guaranteed to dine in style as Celebrity Cruises offer worldwide itineraries guaranteed to create magical memories and you can expect a travel experience unlike any other.
