Gourmet Dining at Sea
Exceptional onboard dining requires thoughtful provisioning. With proper planning, every meal can be a highlight of your voyage.
Strategic Shopping
Research provisioning options at each port. Local markets often offer the freshest ingredients and regional specialties that enhance the cruising experience.
Storage Solutions
- Refrigeration: Prioritize items by shelf life
- Dry storage: Vacuum sealing extends freshness
- Fresh produce: Store unwashed, rotate regularly
Menu Planning
Plan menus that use perishables first, transitioning to longer-lasting ingredients as the voyage progresses. Build flexibility to incorporate fresh catches and market finds.
Essential Pantry Items
Quality olive oil, aged balsamic, artisanal pasta, premium canned goods, and favorite spices transform simple ingredients into memorable meals.
Wine Storage
Proper wine storage requires consistent temperature. Invest in marine wine storage solutions to protect your cellar from the motion and temperature fluctuations of life at sea.
