SeaDream yacht club has a cookbook—a logical step for a company whose cuisine has been honored with awards and accolades from authoritative publications—and highly praised by guests.
The cookbook Dream Cuisine, presents the culinary magic of the corps of chefs d’ cuisine aboard the twin yachts SeaDream I and II.
Corporate Chef, Sudesh Kishore created SeaDream’s own cuisine style which he calls “Confluence Cuisine”. A variety of world cuisines are combined and blended together yet without destroying their individual integrity.
Dream Cuisine, with the subtitle An Adventure for the Senses, describes the total SeaDream dining experience that includes not only the cuisine itself, but the impeccable service and the fine linen tablecloths and napkins of 100 percent Italian cotton woven in Belgium. Flatware was designed and crafted in Norway. The china comes from Porsgrund and crystal from Hadeland Glasswerk, both of Norway and owned by SeaDream yacht club’s Owner Atle Brynestad.
The splendid cookbook presents SeaDream’s cuisine a la minute whereby each dish is made with the freshest ingredients—frequently found in the markets of ports-of-call—then prepared to order. The book proceeds with inviting color photographs (principal photographer was Florida-based Michel Verdure), descriptive accounts of menu items and recipes. Designed for four servings, Dream Cuisine moves from what SeaDream calls “Welcome Aboard hors d’ oeuvres, luncheon, dinner through appetizers, main courses and desserts and a unique spa menu. Vegetarian choices are detailed as well.
Special sections of the book present SeaDream Signature Dishes, a Menu Degustation, a section describing the SeaDream wine cellar at sea with rare Old World and New World offerings, a special bar menu featuring unusual beverages and SeaDream’s noted and playful Champagne & Caviar Splash™. There are more than 90 recipes in the collection.
The Dream Cuisine cookbook is available for sale through the Boutique section of SeaDream’s website—www.seadream.com—for $30 per copy, plus shipping, and in the onboard Boutiques on SeaDream I and II.
