16 New Culinary Arts Kitchen Classes To Debut Exclusively Onboard Seven Seas Splendor™

MIAMI (2019年11月7日) – Cooking classes on a cruise are among the top foodie experiences for luxury travelers. Today, Regent Seven Seas Cruises® revealed 16 new Culinary Arts Kitchen classes that will debut during the 2020 inaugural season of Seven Seas Splendor™, the ship that perfects luxury.

Inspired by Seven Seas Splendor’s inaugural 2020 season sailing the Caribbean and the Mediterranean, the new classes are listed on Regent’s website and include:

• ISLAND FUSION Each with a unique culinary footprint, the Caribbean islands are the perfect place to learn about where you are traveling through the regional cuisine. 地元の伝統や地元産の食材は、その土地ならではの文化と各島の自然資源を反映しています。そしてフランス、スペイン、アフリカ、インド、中国などの影響は植民地主義を通して形成されたカリブ海料理の歴史を物語っています。
• FARMSTAND FABULOUS This class focuses on how to shop and cook like a chef, inspired by what you discover at the farmer’s market or in the produce aisle. 買い出しには真っ白なキャンバスの状態で出かけ、その季節に見つけられる新鮮な食材をもとに計画を立てる方法を学びます。レシピは地域や季節によって変わりますが、季節の名品を作るテクニックは長年変わらない確かなものです。
• TREASURES OF THE AEGEAN Cast off the mythology surrounding Greek food in this immersive class that reveals the essence of the Mediterranean diet and one of the healthiest cuisines in the world. ケルキラ、クレタ、ロードス、サントリーニの郷土料理を通じて、これらのレシピに使われる地元の食材や伝統的なテクニックを学び、ギリシャの魅力とその美味しい料理を味わってみましょう。
• BATTER UP After learning about batter-based recipes ranging from French crêpes and Tuscan flatbread to Santorini tomato fritters and Turkish zucchini fritters, you will see – and taste – that the simple things in life are often the best. 甘いもの、しょっぱいもの、カリカリ、ふわふわ、忘れられない美味しさ。きっと世界中の粉ものを好きになるはずです。
• 栄養満点のキッチン：PLANT-BASED COMFORTS Whether you follow a plant-based diet or simply wish to introduce more plant-based dishes into your culinary repertoire, learn the hottest new trends that embrace the flavors of nature’s bounty and enhance longevity. ハーバード大学のティーチング キッチン コラボレーティブおよびカリナリー インスティテュート オブ アメリカとの協力により生まれたヘルシーで画期的な美味しい野菜料理のレシピを調理します。
• SENSUOUS SPAIN The rich tradition and culinary integrity of Spain are evident in its tapas – small plates best described as little bites with big flavor. サングリア ブランカを飲みながら定番のタパス料理を作れば、タパスが単なる料理ではなくライフスタイルそのものだということが理解できるでしょう。次のディナーパーティではスペインをテーマにして、この美味しい生活をご友人と共有してください。
• 世界の味：STREET FOOD If you’re familiar with the joy of finding a buttery waffle at a street stand in Belgium or a delicious falafel at a family-run stall in Haifa, this globetrotting exploration of street food is for you. 当社のシェフが美味しいストリートフードを求めて世界を旅し、各地の作り手から聞き出した、秘密の食材や特別なテクニック、家族に伝わるレシピを教えます。

The two-hour classes were designed by Kathryn Kelly, Regent Seven Seas Cruises’ executive director of culinary enrichment. Chef Kelly, a Culinary Institute of America graduate, has spent 40 years traveling to explore the world’s many different cuisines and the cultures that created them. She and other Master Instructors teach the classes.

“Our curriculum appeals to a broad range of tastes and caters to all experience levels, from beginner to seasoned chefs, delivered in the most advanced teaching kitchen on the seas,” Kelly said. “We teach the culinary techniques that chefs use every day, build a recipe and skills repertoire that can be easily transferred to guests’ home kitchens, explore cuisines, spices, recipes and ingredients from our ports of call, and most of all, have fun together sharing stories with people who enjoy cooking.”

Kelly added, “When I was younger, we used to go to friends’ homes and they would pull out their projector and tell us about their trip through pictures. Today, our guests can share their cruise experiences at home by cooking meals for their friends that represent the destinations they explored during the voyage.”

The new classes will be expanded to Seven Seas Explorer in 2020年4月.

Guests attending classes in the Culinary Arts Kitchen will receive highly individualized instruction, as each student will cook from their own personal workstation for authentic, hands-on training, and see close-up details on large-screen monitors. Eighteen individual cooking stations sit atop three long curved rows with white quartzite countertops and stainless-steel accents. The workstations are fully equipped with top-of-the-line induction cooktops, stainless steel sinks and a comprehensive collection of additional cooking essentials. The state-of-the-art culinary center also features floor-to-ceiling windows to offer magnificent ocean vista views from its perch on Deck 11.
