Cunard announced a new partnership with two Michelin-starred
chef, Michel Roux, who will work alongside the cruise line’s culinary
development chefs.
Roux and the Cunard team will create an exclusive gala menu
for the Queens Grill restaurant on the cruise line’s new Queen Anne ship and
design the latest offerings for the fleet-wide pub, the Golden Lion.
“It is an absolute privilege to be working with Cunard's
hugely talented and passionate culinary development chefs as we countdown to
the launch of their newest ship Queen Anne,” Roux said. “For me, there is no
better recipe than blending high quality ingredients with elegant execution to
create unforgettable experiences for diners, and I am incredibly excited to
showcase our elevated, reimagined pub classics to Cunard guests very soon.”
The Golden Lion’s revamped menu will feature a selection of
guest favorites, scheduled to roll out on board Queen Anne in May 2024 before launching
across the existing fleet later in the year.
“We're excited to share a flavor of what will be served on
board Queen Anne in 2024,” Cunard vice president Matt Gleaves said. “Cunard is
renowned for high quality dining options, and we're delighted to be working
with the very best chefs, at the top of their different culinary fields, to
offer such a wide range of dining options to our guests.”
Cunard also revealed four additional dining experiences that
will be available on Queen Anne, including Aji Wa, Aranya, Sir Samuels, and
Tramonto. The first three venues will be alternative evening dining options,
available as a supplement, complementing the inclusive fare options offered for
lunch or dinner in Tramonto and the Golden Lion pub.
In June, Cunard announced that its flagship, Queen
Mary 2, will host four of seven newly-themed voyages in 2024 crossing the
Atlantic. The remaining three will be onboard Queen Elizabeth navigating
through the waters of Australia and Japan.
