CULINARY ENJOYMENT
A Michelin-starred chef on board in person
In 2026, Hamburg-based three-star chef Kevin Fehling will be on board the EUROPA in person for eight selected cruises, indulging guests with his extraordinary world of culinary delights. As the creative mind and namesake of THE GLOBE gourmet restaurant, he combines modern haute cuisine with maritime lightness – creating a unique culinary experience at sea exclusively on board the EUROPA. With his unmistakable signature style, Fehling stands for creative cuisine of the highest quality as well as international appeal. He was recently honored at the prestigious Best Chef Awards in Milan.

Vegetarian caviar: premiere at Pearls
As the first caviar restaurant on the high seas, the Pearls on the EUROPA stands for exquisite selection, innovative creations and finely balanced menus in which the precious caviar pearls traditionally play the leading role. A total of 15 new compositions with an impressive selection of caviar have been created, along with 15 additional independent and innovative vegetarian compositions. Upon request, the vegetarian menus can also be prepared as vegan options. The vegetarian caviar is created through spherification, a process in which flavored liquids are transformed into small pearls that resemble caviar in consistency and appearance – but are completely plant-based thanks to ingredients such as yuzu, saffron tapioca, chilli pepper or Granny Smith.
