HOLLAND America Line isn’t letting the loss of chef Mark Best (CW 15 Sep 16) slow down their culinary offering, announcing a partnership with TV show America’s Test Kitchen.
The pact will see HAL’s Culinary Arts Center transformed to replicate the television set where the series is filmed.
Shipboard shows will be hosted by the cruise line’s chefs, who will be trained by America’s Test Kitchen culinary experts to conduct cooking demonstrations and hands-on workshops covering topics ranging from shaping Asian dumplings to making the perfect pie crust.
America’s Test Kitchen demo courses and workshops will begin on ms Westerdam on 18 Oct & on ms Nieuw Amsterdam on 13 Nov.
The program is expected to roll out fleetwide by Jun next year.
