Carnival’s New ‘Chef’s Table’ Offers Exquisite Culinary Experience

Carnival Cruise Lines is introducing an exciting new fine dining option for its guests–The Chef’s Table. Launched as a pilot program aboard the Carnival Dream and Carnival Ecstasy last year and currently being rolled out to six other ships, this one-of-a-kind culinary experience includes an exquisite multi-course dinner hosted by one of the line’s master chefs along with a private cocktail reception and a personalized tour of the galley.

With The Chef’s Table, a select group of 12 guests enjoy cocktails and hors d’ouevres hosted by the ship’s chef de cuisine. The chef then takes the group on a personalized tour to see the galley in operation, providing participants with a unique perspective on Carnival’s extensive food and beverage operations. The evening concludes with a sumptuous full-service dinner with delicious appetizers, entrees, and desserts created by the line’s master chefs. Depending on the vessel, the meal takes place in non-traditional dining venues throughout the ship–the galley (as pictured above), library, conference center, etc.

The Chef’s Table program is being rolled out to the following six ships over the next several weeks: Carnival Liberty, Carnival Sensation, Carnival Imagination, Carnival Inspiration, Carnival Pride, and Carnival Fascination. The program can be booked on board through the ships’ guest information desk. The cost is $75 per person.

My husband and I are going on a cruise in October and he enjoys cooking, I was thinking this experience would be a great experience for him. Should I head right to the information desk as soon as we board the ship to book this dinner?
