Entertainment might include listening to a talented soloist in Le Grand Salon, dancing on deck in the indoor-outdoor La Palette Lounge, perhaps a few hands of blackjack or bets on the roulette wheel in the Casino, or savoring French Cognac, vintage wines, and fine cigars in the intimate Connoisseur Club. Seven Seas Cruises is delighted to announce a unique arrangement with Chef Jean-Pierre Vigato, a consummate culinary artist whose renowned Apicius restaurant has become one of the best known in Paris. Chef Vigato is of a new generation of great chefs, and his establishment has already earned two coveted Michelin stars. In addition to adhering to traditional French cuisine, one of his fortes is to adopt characteristics of oriental and other ethnic cuisines to create new and innovative dishes. In addition, menus also feature superb international cuisine, lighter fare including selections for those with special diets, and inventive adaptations of Polynesian specialties, all using the freshest tropical fruits, vegetables, seafood and other ingredients.
Fine wines are as integral to dining as food.
Excellent wines from the caves of France, California, and other wine-growing domains are poured with our compliments at lunch and dinner. The ship s cellar also offers an outstanding selection of other superb wines for purchase, and a sommelier is at hand to assist with your personal selections. Two fine restaurants offer a choice of different dining venues. Both feature open-seating dining in tasteful, understated surroundings. L'Etoile's timeless atmosphere, classic furnishings and fluted shell lighting are reminiscent of one of the refined dining establishments in Paris.
