<\/a><\/p>\nRemy offers several meals whilst on board, all at a fee in addition to your cruise fare.\u00a0 I wrestled with the idea of paying extra for food on a cruise when there is so much amazing food for free, but after I finally bit the bullet and tried Disney Cruise Line’s other signature restaurant, Palo, my mind was forever changed.<\/p>\n
Remy comes with a higher price tag than Palo, but after a few days on a Disney Cruise you will be more than willing to fork over a few extra bucks for a premium dining experience that’s only available to the 18+ crowd.<\/p>\n
Remy offers three differently dining experiences; a champagne brunch ($50), dinner ($75), and a 5 course dessert presentation ($50).\u00a0 I participated in the champagne brunch and it was an absolute delight.\u00a0 It is a bit pricey at $50 with an extra $30 tacked on if you want the champagne pairing, but for the food quality and overall experience I didn’t feel cheated.<\/p>\n The brunch began as a small group was lead into the restaurant and given our first course of Jamon Iberico, pata negra, and complementary glass of the Disney Fantasy’s own Taittinger Brut champagne.<\/p>\n The champagne brunch offers a slightly more casual atmosphere than the dinner.\u00a0 Here we stood eating our first course and meeting the sommelier and head chef to learn more about Remy, champagne, and the meal we were about to enjoy.\u00a0 We were then lead to our table where the real experience began.<\/p>\n The view from the dining room is definitely a pro for the brunch v. dinner argument.\u00a0 Once at the table we met our server, who I loved because he gave us truffle brioche.<\/p>\n Everyone in my party opted to do the champagne pairing, an additional $30 for 3 glasses of champagne, perfectly paired with each delicious brunch course.<\/p>\n Our first official course was “Tomates, Gressin, Tarte Fine,” paired with Tattinger Prestige Cuvee Rose NV.\u00a0 This dish was so good!\u00a0 It didn’t sound like much, but ended up being one of my favorite courses.<\/p>\n Up next on the plate was “Lobster, Caviar, Mango”<\/p>\n You can’t go wrong with lobster, but one member of our party has a selfish shellfish allergy and got an alternative Chili Gnocchi, which I of course stole some of.\u00a0 It was fantastic.\u00a0 The lightest gnocchi I have ever tasted.<\/p>\n The courses and champagnes got a bit heartier as the meal progressed.\u00a0 Next there was “Fletan, Pomme de Terre, Sauce Thai” paired with Pommery ‘Pop Gold’ ’06 champagne. Naturally, the fish was delicious, but the stand out in this dish is the potatoes.\u00a0 They were the texture of a dense foam and mixed wonderfully with the thai sauce.<\/p>\n While we continued to sip on the Pop Gold champagne, we were served “Berkshire Pork, Cannellini Bean.\u00a0 This was literally the best pork I have ever eaten.\u00a0 It should be mentioned that I’m not a huge pork fan and almost never order it on my own, but this may just change my mind. And look how pretty!<\/p>\n Remy saved the best for last and presented us with the “Paris Brest”, a light hazelnut cream filled pastry served with hazelnut gelato and paired with Moet & Chandon Ice NV, a champagne specifically formulated to be served over ice.<\/p>\n This is where the menu ends, but of course there are a few surprises…. second dessert!<\/p>\n I’ll be honest, these are not written on the menu and I’ve eaten so many things since then that I don’t at all remember what they are called, but they are a yummy, puffy, not-to-sweet pastry with a crunchy sugar glaze and they were great.<\/p>\n It’s hard to justify an extra $80 for a brunch on an all-you-can-eat cruise, but I think the Remy champagne brunch does it. The food is fantastic and filling, the service is impeccable, and of course there are subtle Disney touches everywhere.<\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n
