| Holland America to Offer Alternative Vegetarian Menu |
Holland
America Line’s award-winning Master Chef Rudi Sodamin has designed an
exclusive 22-dish vegetarian and vegan menu that highlights vegetables
and other naturally healthy ingredients in vibrant, flavorful culinary
selections. The alternative menu includes a full range of appetizers,
salads, soups and main entrées, and is available upon request at no
extra cost for lunch and dinner in the main dining room aboard all 15
ships in the fleet.
"Many
more people are choosing a vegetarian culinary experience, yet the
options can be limited," said Richard Meadows, Holland America Line’s
executive vice president of marketing, sales and guest programs. "By
offering a complete vegetarian-only menu and the largest vegetarian
selection at sea, we are ensuring that all guests can take part in an
exceptional dining experience while cruising with Holland America Line.”
The
savory collection of dishes on the new vegetarian-only menu include
Portobello Mushroom and Chipotle Quesadillas, Vietnamese Vegetable
Spring Rolls, Curried Vegetable Empanadas, Spicy Lentil and Garbanzo
Salad, Sweet and Sour Vegetable Tempura, Vegetable Jambalaya, Grilled
Vegetable and Tofu Kebobs, and Baked Cheese Polenta with Mushrooms and
Artichoke Hearts.
In
addition to the new vegetarian-only menu, 30 new vegetarian dishes will
be added to the main dining room menu. These offerings also will be
featured as a second vegetarian option in the casual Lido buffet during
lunch. Additionally, every dinner menu will now offer guests the option
of one appetizer, one soup or salad, and at least one vegetarian entrée
each evening, increasing the total number of vegetarian options on board
to 52 delectable dishes.
Some
of the newly expanded vegetarian selections on the main dining room
menu include Corn and Zucchini Pancakes served with Southwest-style cous
cous salad, Asparagus and Zucchini Torte with wild rice and sun-dried
tomato coulees, Carrot and Parmesan Risotto topped with a lemony arugula
salad and crispy carrot ribbons, and Grilled Eggplant and Bell Pepper
Masala braised in yogurt with Indian spices and served with
coconut-pistachio basmati rice.
Extraordinary
culinary experiences are a hallmark of every Holland America Line
vacation. Aboard each cruise, guests can choose from an array of dining
options -- from gourmet-quality fare served in the elegant Pinnacle
Grill to casual food favorites served buffet-style in the relaxing Lido
Restaurant.
