Every cruise on board Saroche is a gourmet experience. Whilst
the majority of other passenger barges have a set menu each
evening, Saroche offers a choice of dishes each evening on
its 5-course menu. The chef will discuss your personal preferences
with you and tailor the week's menus to reflect these. The
chef can also cater for special dietary needs.
Buffet lunch spreads include mouth-watering home made quiches,
patés and terrines, cold cuts and crisp salads - rounded off with
dessert or a selection of cheeses and all accompanied by excellent
wines.
Saroche carries a cellar of some 200 bottles of wine and champagne
- specially selected fine wines from Burgundy to Bordeaux
are complimented with prize-winning vintages from lesser known
regions, vineyards and châteaux. Many of these wines are virtually
unknown outside their own region of production, however
their excellence will speak for itself. Guests are invited to visit the
cave and select their own wines each evening, although the crew
is always enthusiastic to give assistance in the choice and to recommend
wines to accompany the menu selections.
During your cruise and for the Captain's Farewell dinner guests
are invited to dine on shore to sample the regional cuisine and
ambiance at specially selected country auberges and local Michelin
rated restaurants.
