S.A.L.T.: Culinary delights on the high seas

Silversea Crusies guests embark on an authentic culinary journey around the world with the new S.A.L.T. concept.

9 December 2021


Silversea truly understands what it means to discover the authentic beauty of the world. It doesn't just mean exploring destinations off the beaten track, but also understanding each place as fully as possible - from its culture to its traditions to its cuisine. That's why the luxury cruise fleet believes that food offers a unique approach to other cultures through its taste, preparation and overall culinary context. Food and beverages provide lasting memories that define a travel experience. They embody a cultural identity and individuality and provide a new, exotic and unusual experience by offering a deeper insight into the world of the destination.

 

The unique Sea and Land Taste program - S.A.L.T. - is a new way to experience the world's food, drink and traditions up close. S.A.L.T. is about bringing guests closer to the places they visit through food and drink culture. Through customized onboard gastronomic experiences and shore excursions, regional chefs, producers and authors sharing their passion and expertise through lectures, hands-on demonstrations and cooking classes, as well as local specialties, wines and cocktails, guests can develop a better, deeper understanding and appreciation for the tastes, cultures and foodways of the places they visit.

S.A.L.T on board

On board the Silver Moon and Silver Dawn there are three special dining areas that tantalize the palate with authentic culinary experiences. Among them, guests enjoy special dinners at S.A.L.T. Kitchen, a restaurant that changes its recipes and flavors with each port visited. At S.A.L.T. Bar, guests get a taste of the authentic and enjoy cocktails and drinks inspired by the region. At the S.A.L.T. Lab, travelers join talented chefs to learn how food is prepared in each region, giving them a deep insight into the rich heritage of each destination.

S.A.L.T. shore excursions

No matter which destination is visited during the cruise, the following questions are asked: Who are the best producers and experts in this region? Who can best tell the stories behind the dishes and ingredients of the places being toured? All of the tour guides on the S.A.L.T. experiences are experts not only on the history of the place, but also on the food culture. In addition to local and expatriate chefs returning to the places that inspired them, Silversea turns to local historians, cookbook authors, farmers, winemakers and experts of all kinds. This exclusive series of shore excursions offers guests personal connections to the destinations visited and are experiences that go far beyond an excursion. Just as each voyage is unique, so is the food culture of each destination - so no two .S.A.L.T. experiences are the same.
