All frozen kosher prepackaged meals are provided by Borenstein Caterers Incorporated. This New York-based company has catered kosher meals for more than 60 years and works under the supervision of the Union of Orthodox Jewish Congregations of America (the OU). The menu selection includes an assortment of breakfast, lunch, and dinner dishes, with appetizers, soups, side dishes and desserts to choose from, each presented in plastic containers and double wrapped. Additionally, all bread is Pas Yisroel and all dairy products are Cholov Yisroel.
For those guests who are not strictly kosher and would like our chefs to prepare their meals, we have limited quantities of kosher proteins such as veal rack, ribeye steak, lamb rack, turkey breast, whole chicken, and fresh or frozen fish available on board. Please note that the preparation of these proteins will not be according to the rules of kashrut.
We are pleased to serve guests kosher meals, both prepackaged and fresh, exclusively in our elegant Compass Rose restaurant. Once on board, please contact the maître d' of Compass Rose to make dining arrangements.
2023 European Sailings Notice:
The European Union has updated their regulations for meat and poultry products that transit, or that are stored in the EU. Unfortunately, none of our kosher suppliers meet this requirement and as a result, we are unable to offer pre-packaged frozen strict kosher meals for our 2023 European sailings. However, we understand the importance of providing dietary options for our guests and have made sure to provision more kosher proteins for these voyages. It's important to reiterate that while the protein is kosher, our onboard preparation and galley environments are not. Please note that once our ships leave Europe and return to the US, we will resume offering pre-packaged frozen kosher meals.
