Holland America Line creates longest sushi roll at sea

 

Holland America Line has created what it believes to be the longest maki sushi roll at sea.

 

The effort was spearheaded by the line’s Global Fresh Fish Ambassador Chef Masaharu Morimoto, onboard Rotterdam.

 

Chef Morimoto and more than 50 culinary team members helped create the roll, which was approximately 90 feet long. It included Nori seaweed, over 55 pounds of sushi rice and 33 pounds of fresh Big Eye Tuna fish.

 

Chef Morimoto said: “As the Global Fresh Fish Ambassador for Holland America Line, I love to bring my passion for sushi to the high seas. Creating the longest sushi maki roll at sea for Holland America was a thrilling challenge, which allowed me to showcase our commitment to using the highest quality and freshest ingredients in a fun and memorable way for Holland America guests.”

 

Chef Morimoto sailed aboard Rotterdam to the Caribbean to launch the new speciality Morimoto By Sea sushi bar. It will be introduced on Rotterdam, Koningsdam, Nieuw Statendam and Eurodam, and have capacity for 12 guests.

 

It is also available on Nieuw Amsterdam, which introduced the sushi bar with a Morimoto By Sea stand-alone restaurant in 2023.
