Atlas Ocean Voyages welcomes guests to The Explorers’ Table

Yacht expedition cruise firm Atlas Ocean Voyages invites guests to The Explorer’s Table, a new specialty dining option now available on Polar Expeditions to Antarctica and the High Arctic. 

An exclusive omakase-style dining experience, The Explorer’s Table presents global culinary highlights from Spain, Korea, France, Argentina, and North America in The Dome observation lounge. 

The experience will be available once on each expedition aboard the World Voyager, World Traveller, and World Navigator.

Atlas Ocean Voyages president and CEO James Rodriguez said of this gustatory adventure: “The culinary team is kicking off the Winter 2024-2025 Antarctic season with a new elevated onboard dining experience that will continue in the Arctic next summer. Guests will enjoy a special evening with just a few other guests, providing the ultimate dining experience on board.”

An exclusive affair

Prepared for only ten guests, The Explorer’s Table guests will embark on a culinary journey amid scenes of glaciers and icebergs. The multi-course tasting menu is elegantly paired with a selection of premium wines. 

This extraordinary dining experience features a fusion of global flavours and culinary craftsmanship. Some of the standout dishes include fresh Salad de Bacalao with Tomato, Cod, Olives, and Extra Virgin Olive Oil, and the unique Steamed Pastrami Sandwich with Mustard, Kimchi, and Cheddar. For seafood lovers, the Charcoal Steamed Nishiki Rice with Ossetra Caviar offers a luxurious touch, while the Chargrilled Gaucho-style Vegetables and Beans with Pistachio Gremolata deliver bold, earthy flavours.

Guests will also savour the vibrant Mango, Avocado, and Duck with Broccoli Crumbs, and treat their palates to the refreshing Hemingway Peppermint Mojito Crush with Carolina Raspberry.

Additional highlights include Flamed Spring Chicken Terrine with Pickles, the rich Jamon Iberico de Jabugo with Lemon Olive Oil, and a decadent Pot de Crème featuring Valrhona Guanaja 70% Chocolate and Yuzu. 

Each exquisite course will be paired with premium wine selections from the Mendoza Valley, a region renowned for its exceptional wines and rich, bold flavours.
