Sarah Bretz, ContributorAtlas Ocean Voyages has announced a new specialty dining experience which is now available on its Polar Expeditions to Antarctica and the High Arctic.
An exclusive Omakase-style dining experience, The Explorer’s Table will present global culinary highlights from Spain, Korea, France, Argentina, and North America in The Dome observation lounge. It will be available once on each expedition on all yachts — World Voyager, World Traveller, and World Navigator.
Prepared for only 10 guests, The Explorer’s Table diners will embark on a culinary journey amid scenes of glaciers and icebergs. The multi-course tasting menu is paired with a selection of premium wines. Reservations open 60 days before the embarkation date and are priced at $179 per guest. Pre-reservations can be made by contacting a travel agent or one of Atlas’ Voyage Specialists.
The dining experience features a fusion of global flavors and culinary craftsmanship. Some standout dishes include fresh Salad de Bacalao with Tomato, Cod, Olives, and Extra Virgin Olive Oil, and the unique Steamed Pastrami Sandwich with Mustard, Kimchi, and Cheddar. For seafood lovers, the Charcoal Steamed Nishiki Rice with Ossetra Caviar offers a luxurious touch, while the Chargrilled Gaucho-style Vegetables and Beans with Pistachio Gremolata deliver bold, earthy flavors.
Guests will savor the vibrant Mango, Avocado, and Duck with Broccoli Crumbs, and treat their palate to the refreshing Hemingway Peppermint Mojito Crush with Carolina Raspberry. Additional highlights include Flamed Spring Chicken Terrine with Pickles, the rich Jamon Iberico de Jabugo with Lemon Olive Oil, and a decadent Pot de Crème featuring Valrhona Guanaja 70% Chocolate and Yuzu.
Each course will be paired with premium wine selections from the Mendoza Valley, a region renowned for its exceptional wines and rich, bold flavors.
