What is Daniel Boulud's Chef's Table like on Celebrity Apex? This is from last week's cruise. Some great plates of food. At a private table. And we added the wine pairings. It was $150/person and the wine was $60/person. Some really good pairings.
Started with a curried cauliflower soup. Rich creamy broth with hints of saffron.
Next was a savory mushroom risotto. The wine was well balanced with the savory taste of the persillade, a mix of parsley, garlic, oil and vinegar.
The seabass was perfectly cooked and went so well with the fennel and tomato. Great acid from the lemon.
Fourth course was the duo of filet and short rib. The short rib was my favorite. So tender and flavorful. The filet was cooked to medium rare but didn't have a lot of flavor. That is my experience with most filets. Not much fat. Not much flavor.
Dessert was a.playful dessert that focused on coffee flavors. Chocolate/coffee mousse "lollipop" on a crispy cookie "stick". With some additional crispy crumbs for dipping. A well composed dessert.
