The vegan evolution

We weren’t content just to incorporate a few vegan dishes here and there. Instead, we collaborated with vegan chef and Norway’s most popular vegan blogger Mari Hult to create an entirely separate menu.

Expert input

In designing our vegan menu, we wanted to make sure that all the dishes on our vegan menu didn’t just look and taste great, but that they were good for you too. Our culinary taskforce therefore consulted with accredited nutritionists to select the right ingredients.

We also reached out to Mari Hult, a vegan chef from the coastal city of Stavanger and author of vegetarbloggen.no—the most widely read vegetarian and vegan blog in Norway. Her invaluable advice helped to elevate our range of vegan dishes to another level.

Green and gourmet

The resulting vegan menu has been designed to give you a different and delicious fully vegan three-course menu every night of our signature 12-day Classic Round Cruise.

Expect delicious dishes such as borlotti bean casserole, vegan pancakes, oven-baked pears, beetroot à la Bourguignon, strawberry sorbet, and vegan chocolate mousse.

The final verdict

Mari Hult herself had this to say: “Vegan food is sustainable, animal-friendly, good for your health and, when it’s prepared in the way Norway’s Coastal Kitchen does here, it’s incredibly tasty too!

I am so pleased and proud that one of Norway’s biggest brands, with one of the best kitchens we have, has been so thorough in offering this fantastic menu—one that’s not just for vegans but for anyone who wants to try a greener way of eating.

It has been a pleasure to witness the process that the chefs have followed, and I wish it was me who was sitting down to eat on the world’s most beautiful cruise right now!”
