French Speciality Restaurant ‘La Mer’ To Feature on Princess Cruises’ Newest Ships

French speciality restaurant ‘La Mer’ will be introduced on Princess Cruises two newest ships, Sky Princess and Enchanted Princess. The restaurant was first opened on Majestic Princess in 2017.

La Mer

La Mer is the creation of three Michelin-starred chef, Emmanuel Renaut. Renaut is the owner and executive chef of the Flocons de Sel restaurant, located in the French Alps village of Megève. He previously worked in restaurants including Claridge’s, Hotel de Crillon and Auberge de l’Eridan.

La Mer will be located in the Sky Princess atrium and offer casual, French bistro-style dining. A cover charge of $35 per person will apply.

Sample dishes on Sky Princess include:

• Beef filet mignon, sweet onions sauté, red wine jus, hand cut chips
• Red snapper & scallop mousseline, lobster morsels and lemongrass lobster sauce
• Mont Blanc ‘Marron-Myrtilles’ dessert – sweet chestnut, blueberry gel and vanilla cream bavarois

Rai Caluori, Princess Cruises’ executive vice president of guest experience and product development, said:

It’s been an honour to collaborate with Chef Renaut again to develop a new menu for La Mer and showcase his authentically-crafted dishes. He has a passion to deliver unforgettable French dining.

Chef Renaut also went on to say:

I’m delighted to introduce La Mer to more Princess Cruises guests. My dishes are designed to satisfy every palate by bringing retro French classics and blending favourite ingredients with fresh and unique touches to make each dish memorable.
