Just off the Majestic on Sunday and they did the Chef’s Table.

This was our 5^th Chefs Table and our least favorite. No Lamb chops or sliced beef tenderloin. They gave us a veal chop that was very chewy, a rubbery lobster tail, and sweet breads.

Rest of meal was great!

Who is the executive chef on the Majestic Princess?

What was wrong with the sweet breads?

I hope you gave the chef feedback regarding the meal.

Thanks for your response.  We will be celebrating our 50th wedding anniversary and would like to experience the Chefs Table on the Sky Princess transatlantic this November.

Do you sign up for Chef's Table after boarding or can you do that in advance?

[jebhoward3]

Are you able to view the menu prior to signing up.

As a pescetarian is it worth me trying the lumiere - do you get any chance to specify preferences or do you just get what the chef want's to give you?

[Dar & Bob]

What was the charge?  We did this a few years ago and may think about it in January.

I, too, am a presbyterian and had no problems with specificity.

Didn't know that you had to declare religious beliefs to sign up.....

You can only sign-up after boarding. Go to Pax Svcs, call DINE line or speak to MD or a head waiter.

For us, Pax Svcs was easiest and we made it to the list.

No, not in my experience. We got what we got (so to speak). Didn't matter, it was fabulous.

When we did it a few years back, you met with the head waiter and maitre d to discuss food allergies and dietary restrictions. Both my wife an another passenger had a shellfish allergy. The night of the dinner there was shellfish items but they provided an alternative for both of them

My spouse is a pescatarian and when we did the Ceeft's table they specially prepared a fish entree for her.

 

This was several years ago and I do not know if they will still do this or if it varies from chef to chef.

Since you get a tour of the kitchen, do you have to wear close-toed shoes for the evening?

IF they are doing the kitchen tour (come prepared just in case), then the answer is closed-toe shoes in the kitchen. You can carry your evening shoes (in a bag?) and change when you leave the kitchen.

The Live Froms were (so far) stating that there was no kitchen tour.

Thank you!

I am new to Princess. We have done Chef's Table on Carnival several times and it seems the menus are fleet wide (even though they make it seem like they're not 😆). From the reading I've been doing, it seems like the Chef's Table on Princess cruises really are ship exclusive. Am I correct in that assumption? We are going on the Emerald and are interested in doing it. I kinda like seeing the menu in advance because one of my kids is kinda picky (she's 20, so not really a kid) but I guess that's not really an option (at least I can't find one).

Does anyone know if they can do Gluten Free at the Chef's table? Princess does such a great job with this at other dining venues.

Even the ship menus vary depending on the individual chefs.

Might not be as easy, as it is more of a fixed menu...

I would ask on board. Seems like a reasonable request
