This is a two part show. The first episode's menu features a composite menu from the old cruise menus. The starter is an appetizer of cold poached eggs set on a salad of smoked salmon on an artichoke bottom plus a truffle-salmon garnish. The entree is a sort of fisherman's stew called "Soup of the Seven Seas." Shellfish and fin fish are poached in a savory broth with white wine. Dessert is a passion fruit mousse set in an almond-caramel basket.
Episode two's menu is first cabin all the way. Trout with cucumbers and saffron rice start this dinner. The entree is a grand old recipe, Pheasant under glass. And to finish, a martini glass with berries and sable cookies.
