Princess Cruises’ newest ships to feature French speciality restaurant

Princess Cruises has announced that its two newest ships will feature French speciality restaurant ‘La Mer’.

The restaurant, which was first opened on Majestic Princess in 2017, will open on the 3,660-guest Sky Princess, launching in October, and Enchanted Princess, launching June 2020.

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

La Mer will offer casual, French bistro-style dining. 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 said: “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.”

A cover charge of $35 per person will apply.
