I just did the chef's table on the Splendor 2 months ago (October 2019). The price was $75/ person plus gratuity and includes several alcoholic drinks.
The chef's table is a step up from the Steakhouse $38 fee where no drinks are included in the price.
First off the chef's table starts with a complementary glass of champagne prior to going into the galley. The whole 3 hour event is guided and described by one of the sous chef.
Once inside the galley, we were treated to two separate appetizers and then a demonstration on how they make the Carnival melting cake dessert. We were then led to a private dining room were the 12 of us (limited seating) were met by additional staff to serve you and clear the table. After taking a group photo, we sat at our seats with the printed menu.
Immediately after sitting, the 3rd course was brought into the room.
(There is no ordering required, it is a preset dinner of 10-12 tasting courses - even though it's a tasting - you will leave full). The Steakhouse allows you to choose your appetizer, entree, & dessert.
The 3rd and 4th courses came with a glass of wine then a 5th, 6th and 7th course with a different wine.
Prior to the main tasting entree, a guest magician came in and provided some up close slight of hand magic. He was very good and moved around the table and repeated the trick.
After the tricks were done,
we were treated to the remaining 4 - 5 courses which included 2 delicious dessert courses.
Prior to leaving, we were handed a photo of the table guest we took earlier in the evening.
It started at 6:00 pm and we finished at 9:00 pm.
It was an excellent evening and we'll worth the cost.
