P&O Cruises to welcome top chefs in on their cruise ships in 2010

PRLog (Press Release) - Oct 20, 2009 -
A number of P&O Cruises next year will be bolstered by the visits of top celebrity chefs Gary Rhodes, Marco Pierre White and Atul Kochhar.

Gary Rhodes, Marco Pierre White and Atul Kochhar all have restaurants on board the cruise liner’s ships, and each chef will visit their own eatery on a number of voyages in 2010.

The Michelin-starred chefs will participate in cooking demonstrations, lessons, question-and-answer sessions and book signings, as well as spending time with both the catering team and passengers in the restaurants throughout the cruise.

Rhodes, who launched his first restaurant-at-sea with P&O Cruises on the Arcadia in 2005, will travel with Arcadia and Oceana, visiting cities such as Amsterdam, Barcelona, Monte Carlo, Copenhagen and St. Petersburg, amongst others.

White will visit the Ventura, home to his White Room restaurant, and stop at a number of Mediterranean ports including Gibraltar, Bilbao and Cannes. He will also visit a host of other cities during his voyages on board Ventura and Aurora.

Kochhar will board the Azura, which features his Sindhu restaurant, and will visit cities such as Malaga, Dubrovnik and Venice.

The chefs’ visits will begin with Kochhar’s 16-night voyage on board the Azura, departing on 12th April 2010.
