Le Laperouse Dining

Faithful to Ponant's commitment to spreading the French way of life around the world, Ponant always pays special attention to the meals that Ponant serves throughout the day. As Ponant wishes to develop sustainable and responsible tourism, Ponant sources its food directly from the places the ship stops at, while committing to respecting the local resources. And so that everyone's tastes are catered to, special menus are available on request for guests with specific dietary requirements (low-fat, vegetarian, gluten-free, etc).

• Gastro Restaurant: A la carte meals are served at the table in the gastro restaurant. At lunch, a selection of dishes inspired by contemporary French brasseries will be offered. At dinner, it is time to sample the grand traditions of French fine dining, with menus to go with one of the best wines from the cellar, as recommended by the sommelier.
• Grill Restaurant: The atmosphere is more casual at the grill restaurant with its set buffet menu. From breakfast to dinner, there is a range of healthy, gourmet, hearty and sophisticated buffet options to satisfy all tastes.
