Virgin Voyages debuts Eat & Drink Month
Virgin Voyages is introducing its inaugural Eat & Drink Month.
It is partnering with top chefs, including Matt Lambert and Brad Farmerie, along with James Beard Award nominated Silvana Salcido Esparza and Sohui Kim this November aboard Scarlet and Valiant Lady.
Next month, Eat & Drink Month includes four- and five-night voyages on Scarlet Lady as well as six- and eight-night voyages on Virgin Voyages’ newest vessel, Valiant Lady.
Guests enjoy specialty cocktails and menu items, as well as bookable events priced between $15-125/Sailor, including dinner & wine pairings, cooking demos and a sneak peek at a new menu launching in 2023.
To celebrate Eat & Drink Month, every booking in November includes a complimentary $300 Bar Tab that can be used for specialty cocktails or the brand’s Shake for Champagne feature. One simple shake of a phone and Moët & Chandon is delivered on demand.
“Our food and drink menus were put together by award-winning chefs and mixologists who have taken their land-based gastronomy experience to our restaurants and cocktail bars onboard,” said President and Chief Experience Officer, Nirmal Saverimuttu.
“We have created an award-winning product, and our food and drink continues to be a standout part of the experience. Eat & Drink Month is a way for us to turn up the heat and celebrate Sailors’ favorite part of coming aboard,” he added.
The Eat & Drink lineup includes Sushi & Poke Demo where sailors learn how to select sushi-grade fish and use a sushi knife before constructing their own cucumber avocado roll and tuna poke bowl.
