Atlas Ocean Voyages Just Announced an Impressive New Dining Experience
Atlas Ocean Voyages is raising the bar on culinary travel with a newly enhanced dining program designed to immerse guests in the flavours and traditions of the destinations they explore.
Under the leadership of Corporate Executive Chef René Afleñzer, who recently returned from a sourcing journey across Argentina, the luxury cruise line has unveiled menus that spotlight locally inspired dishes and seasonal ingredients sourced directly from regional farmers, vintners and artisans.
“Food is an integral part of exploration,” said Chef Afleñzer. “Guests deserve a culinary journey as rich and inspiring as the destinations we visit. Our menus are designed to surprise and delight, blending creative presentation, exceptional quality and fresh regional flavours.”
A Taste of the World on Board
Guests can now enjoy Chef Afleñzer’s creations across all dining venues, including the elegant main restaurant, the alfresco 7Aft Grill, casual Paula’s Pantry, and 24-hour room service. Highlights range from raw Hamachi with soya-parsley and dill salad, to lobster ravioli with garlic butter sauce, to plant-based options such as roasted white onion with wild mushroom ragout and hazelnut cream.
The curated menus also include a standout dessert program featuring treats like infinity chocolate peanut butter cake and pistachio caramel sauce crumble. Beverage pairings, sommelier-led wine tastings and market-to-table dinners round out the expanded offering, creating a holistic dining experience designed to connect travellers to the culinary traditions of the regions they visit.
Expanding the Epicurean Experiences
Atlas Ocean Voyages has also announced the return of its popular Epicurean Expeditions for 2026 and 2027, sailing the Mediterranean with a line-up of guest chefs, wine pairings, market-to-table excursions and shoreside tastings.
“As one of the cornerstones of the Atlas experience, our culinary program continues to evolve,” said James A. Rodriguez, President & CEO of Atlas Ocean Voyages. “Our guests’ feedback and strong ratings confirm that dining with Atlas is truly exceptional.”
With its expanded menus, expert-led experiences and commitment to sourcing sustainably, Atlas Ocean Voyages is charting a course to make dining at sea as memorable as the destinations themselves.
