Princess Cruises announced the introduction of new vegan
menus for main dining rooms that will be rolled out across the company’s fleet of
15 ships.
The plant-based cuisine being added to the Princess vessels
is prepared without the use of any animal products, exemplifying the cruise
line’s culinary team and their fusion of gourmet creativity and
eco-consciousness.
The vegan menus offer an array of starters, salads, soups,
pastas and main dishes, with nightly menus served in the main dining rooms.
Passengers can request the new options before their voyages—through the Cruise
Personalizer, their travel agent, or the Princess call center—or once onboard.
“Our dedication to delivering unforgettable culinary
experiences continues to evolve with current trends, including the desire for
more vegan offerings,” Princess Cruises Vice President Sami Kohen said.
“Our new plant-based dinner menus offer our vegan guests an
extraordinary culinary journey while providing reassurance and peace of mind
with dishes they know meet their lifestyle preferences,” Kohen continued.
