xxHadleyxx Posted March 23, 2013 #52 Share Posted March 23, 2013 We have been thinking of getting that chef's table dining package. Can you tell me how that worked at Izumi, which is normally ala carte? And, did you think it was worth it over all? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can you tell me how that worked at Izumi, which is normally ala carte? And, did you think it was worth it over all? Very worth it. We would do it again. More pictures coming up. For Izumi, you get a 20 dollar credit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Iluvcruising2 Posted March 23, 2013 Author #66 Share Posted March 23, 2013 (edited) We had the Chef’s Table on Day 1. This was one highlight of our cruise. Originally, they told us that there weren’t enough people, but somehow they made it happen. The Chef's Table on Legend OTS can take up to 12. They needed 8 to open the Table, otherwise it would not be held. Edited March 23, 2013 by Iluvcruising2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iluvcruising2 Posted March 23, 2013 Author #67 Share Posted March 23, 2013 This was how the dining venue looked. It is located on Deck 5, within the Main Dining Room, in a nice cordoned off area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iluvcruising2 Posted March 23, 2013 Author #68 Share Posted March 23, 2013 (edited) This was our menu for the evening. We were asked to meet at 6:30pm at the Schooner Bar, where champagne was served by the Sommelier. We were led to the Table at about 7pm. It would be a long but fun evening, sheer gastronomical delight. It was 10:30pm before we got back to our cabins. We were told that the menus were almost standardized fleet-wide. However, this menu was slightly customized. Course number 3, the Duck Roll, was Asian inspired. Edited March 23, 2013 by Iluvcruising2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
papaflamingo Posted March 23, 2013 #69 Share Posted March 23, 2013 Thanks for the great pictures. We are on Legend in Feb. 2014 and it's great to see how beautiful the renovations are. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iluvcruising2 Posted March 23, 2013 Author #70 Share Posted March 23, 2013 Each of us had 6 glasses. 5 glasses for the wine pairings with each dish, right to left. The right most glass was for water. Evian was served. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iluvcruising2 Posted March 23, 2013 Author #71 Share Posted March 23, 2013 We had a ball of a time at the Chef’s Table because the company was very good. All of us knew very little about this type of fine dining. So, many questions were asked, and we had plenty of good laughs. This was our Sommelier, introducing the warm breads. Delicious stuff.

Dett Posted March 23, 2013 #73 Share Posted March 23, 2013 Thanks so much for the review. Really enjoying the pictures. We are on the Legend in January. We also have an aft cabin but on deck 7. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Iluvcruising2 Posted March 23, 2013 Author #75 Share Posted March 23, 2013 (edited) This was Chef Rudy, from the Philippines. He was the Sous Chef, in charge of the Chef’s Table. A jolly good fella, and very humourous too. Chef was introducing the first dish, the Alaskan crab. He went through the intricacies of how the dish was prepared. I found the details rather fascinating, though I honestly cannot really remember them. :) Edited March 23, 2013 by Iluvcruising2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
