Celebrity Cruises present Mediterranean food experience



Celebrity Cruises is well known for indulging its guests to the full and it comes as no surprise that they are joining forces with the magazine famed for celebrating the world of great food and sharing it with other, Bon Appétit. Celebrity Cruises and Bon Appétit will be presenting ‘Celebrity’s Mediterranean Experience with Bon Appétit’, an at-sea feature focusing on the pleasures of cooking and dining.
The 2,038 guest Celebrity Summit will be hosting the event, departing from San Juan, Puerto Rico on the 18 April, sailing to Barcelona, Spain. Celebrity Summit will be calling in at several tantalising ports of call along the way that exemplify Mediterranean flavours, including Tenerife, Canary Islands; Agadir, Morocco; Malaga, Spain; and Valencia, Spain.
Throughout the sailing there will be numerous culinary demonstrations performed by Joey Campanaro, chef/owner of New York restaurants ‘The Little Owl’ and ‘Market Table’. Joey is well known for his creative culinary style, combining only the freshest ingredients with bold, rich flavours that the Mediterranean is famous for.
Activities onboard will reflect the focus on the region’s epicurean and cultural highlights. The ship’s casual restaurant will offer numerous Mediterranean-themed buffets throughout the voyage. Guests will have the opportunity to participate in Mediterranean-themed food/wine trivia competitions, a Mediterranean cooking class hosted by the cruise director and the ship’s executive chef, Spanish-language classes, regional dance classes, and a recipe contest.

Celebrity Cruises Spring Cleaning Fleet

Celebrity Cruises are embarking on a ‘spring clean’ of its fleet, including Celebrity Summit, which has already been given a treatment involving replacing thousands of square feet of tiles, carpeting and 2,500 yards of fabric.

Celebrity Summit has also been fitted with a new 11,000 kilowatt diesel dedicated electrical generation system which will reduce the ships fuel consumption when in port. Celebrity Summit’s Rendezvous Lounge has undergone a makeover with a new floor and the boutique shop has been renovated.

"We are constantly focused on the care and maintenance of our fleet, and evaluate the exterior and interior appearance of every ship, every day, to ensure we're consistently delivering the best guest experience," Senior Vice-President of Marine Operations at Celebrity Cruises, John Krousouloudis commented.
