A New Pop-Up Brasserie on Holland America

By: Caribbean Journal Staff - March 13, 2017 - 6:06 pm

Holland America Line is adding a new pop-up to its cruise ships.

The company has announced plans to launch the Sel de Mer brasserie as a pop-up on six ships in its fleet, including ms Eurodam, ms Nieuw Amsterdam, ms Noordam, ms Oosterdam, ms Westerdam and ms Zuiderdam.

Sel de Mer is the brainchild of Holland America culinary consultant and master chef Rudi Sodamin; it’s currently a permanent fixture on the ms Koningsdam ship.

The brasserie offers a menu of classic French dishes including seafood; the pop-up will also include a cocktail and wine menu.

“Sel de Mer onboard Koningsdam is extremely popular among our guests and one of the most talked about dining experiences in the industry,” said Orlando Ashford, president of Holland America Line. “The restaurant showcases our commitment to providing our guests with unrivaled dining options, and launching it as Rudi’s Sel de Mer on six more ships as a pop-up will allow more of our guests to see what the buzz is all about and indulge in its phenomenal cuisine.”

The pop-up will debut on ms Nieuw Amsterdam on March 31.
