Avalon Gets Fresh
Avalon Waterways is also adding a little more creativity to the dining experience aboard its vessels by teaming up with two of Europe’s rising culinary stars – the Wrenkh brothers – to design “Avalon Fresh.”
“We think our travellers deserve healthy, vegetarian food options that taste great,” said Patrick Clark, managing director of Avalon Waterways. “While we have always provided travellers with a selection of nutritious, delicious recipes, Avalon Fresh is taking this idea to a new level. Avalon Fresh is all about creating wholesome menu items where garden-fresh, local ingredients from small farms are married with a sprinkle of ingenuity. This exciting collection of new food will be so mouthwatering, it will be hard to believe it’s healthy.”
Whether focused on healthy dining alternatives or just great food, Avalon understands that with every dining experience, there is an opportunity to bring each destination to life. The company puts care into creating every day’s menu using quality ingredients.
“Our team views dinners as the perfect complement to a day of discovery,” said Clark. “We craft our recipes using high-quality, prime-cut beef, fresh fish and an accompaniment of hand-picked local fruits, vegetables and garden greens. Every dinner features a specialty dish from the day’s destination as well as a choice of wine, including special wines of the region, selected by a professional sommelier and always included with the meal.”
On each Avalon cruise, the company brings a local chef on board to interact with guests and prepare a special dinner, offering a true taste of the culture. Guests can also take advantage of the Panorama Bistro – a casual atmosphere offering a variety of regional and tapas-style dishes, hand-paired with local wines.
