Oceania Cruises, renowned for its culinary excellence, is raising the bar yet again with an extraordinary reimagining of The Grand Dining Room experience debuting aboard their newest jewel, Allura, launching July 2025.

As a certified Oceania specialist, I'm thrilled to share this exciting culinary evolution featuring over 270 brand-new recipes crafted by the line's talented Executive Culinary Directors and Master Chefs of France, Alexis Quaretti and Eric Barale.

The refreshed dining experience transforms each meal into a celebration of global flavors and refined technique:

Breakfast Reimagined: A dedicated "Signature Eggs Benedict" section showcases creative variations like Eggs Benedict Florentine and Smoked Salmon Benedict. Daily rotating specials include innovative offerings such as zucchini waffles with smoked salmon and Mexican breakfast burritos.

La Brasserie Lunch: Midday dining transforms into an authentic French bistro experience featuring classics like Blanquette De Veau à L'Ancienne and Coq Au Vin alongside American favorites including Oceania's signature ground chuck cheeseburger.

Dinner Elevated: The evening menu introduces more than 200 new recipes, from delicate Scallop Panna Cotta with caviar to slow-cooked Korean BBQ beef short ribs. Reimagined classics include a decadent Beef Wellington with Shiraz red wine sauce and chermoula butter-roasted Maine lobster.

Chef Quaretti brings deeply personal touches to the new menu: "I drew deep inspiration from my childhood, family life, and collaborations with renowned Chef Jacques Pépin. The Mousse au Chocolat de Marnie Huguette uses my grandmother's cherished recipe, embodying our philosophy to honor the past, savor the present, and focus on flavors which leave a lasting impression."

This culinary evolution perfectly complements Oceania's unparalleled service (one chef for every 10 guests!) and intimate luxury experience aboard their small, elegant ships.
