Our chefs and their brigade interpret and share with our passengers their passion for the French culinary heritage, enriched with the products and traditions of the countries visited. Our menus are constantly renewed according to the destination and the route chosen. On our mega yachts, two restaurants welcome you according to your wishes, the gourmet restaurant and the grill restaurant. In January 2016, PONANT joined forces with Ducasse Conseil, a culinary catering center of excellence run by Alain Ducasse Entreprise, which continues to provide dining excellence aboard our ships. From the conception of the culinary offerings each day to the training of the company’s Chefs, this long-term project aims to ensure that PONANT’s culinary standards are as high as possible and to satisfy the palates of our discerning passengers. Every day, our French baker makes your bread and then bakes it on board. Organic baguettes, sandwich breads and special breads are available as a buffet option with your breakfasts, lunches and dinners. At lunch, a selection of dishes inspired by the contemporary French brasseries will be offered onboard; while dinners are an a-la-carte dining experience expertly served at the table in the gastronomic restaurant, providing guests the opportunity to taste the grand traditions of French fine dining.
