Earth & Ocean

Does anyone have a menu that they can post? Do you need to make a reservation for this venue?

No reservations. 7 menu rotations. Delicious and innovative cuisine. Great concept and execution. Good for warm weather dining (blankets but no heat lamps).

No reservations is good.

Delicious and innovative cuisine is even better.

Sounds great, thank you!

I have most of the menus from Earth and Ocean from our 21 day Ovation voyage, but don't know how to post photos on this website.

I don't know what this is. Is it offered on the Quest? Please elaborate.

The fleet wide roll-out will take some time. Not on Quest yet. Just google it for the press release.

Earth and Ocean is a new SB dining concept taking the place of what was served in the evening on the Patio previously. It is hard to describe what it is. It does have it's own set of dish ware. Our server was very proud of the dishes and turned over a plate to show us that the plates are handmade and signed. Also, great care is used in serving the cuisine---it is done with some flair.

The offerings are divided into three categories and you are encouraged to order as much as you would like. The categories are: Chilled, Refreshing, Quick Fried; Smoke, Braised, Tagine; and Cheese, Sweets.

Here is a sample menu from June 16th on the Ovation

Chilled, Refreshing, Quick Fried

Iberico Pata Negra "Ham"

(shaved honeydew melon, crisp fennel, castelvetrano olives, ricotta salata)

Calamari Basquaise

(roasted garlic, pine nuts, tomato confit, pan catalan)

Trofie Pasta

(beef shank ragu, shiitake mushrooms, amarillo tomatoes, toasted Japanese pancake horseradish crumbs, fontina cheese

Smoked, Braised, Tagine

Nigerian Shrimp "Provencale"

(piquillo pepper butter, roasted vegetables, patatas bravas, chipotle aioli

Rotisserie "Peking Duck"

(Chinese mo-shu pancakes, hoisin, cucumber, bok toy, fried rice, plum sauce

Roasted White Asparagus

(confit cocktail tomatoes, grated lemon zest, green pea espuma)

Cheese, Sweets

Farmer S Style Camembert

(honey pommery, mustard, pain grille)

"Pommes Au Four"

(baked apple, brown sugar butter, ginger bread, calvados gelato)

Yogurt Citrus Mousse

(strawberry romanoff, white chocolate and cranberry biscotti, orange sorbeto)

The portions are fairly small--almost like Tapas, but not quite.

its, not it's

Thank you SLSD for taking the time to post this menu. Pleased to see the Nigerian Shrimp back to Seabourn, they were absent for quite some time.

Those dishes sound wonderful - a nice contrast to the TK grill, and one I think we personally would very much prefer. Just need the appropriate weather, not necessarily hot but not raining.

its, not it's

Well spotted;p

Correcting grammar and punctuation could be a full-time job on CC, but many errors could be due to not noticing spell-check's version.:D

Mahogany, You are so right. I marvel at how spell check often "corrects" what I write. Other grammatical errors slip through with rapid typing---or on the fly editing without rechecking. We all need to be kind to our posters and overlook some errors in the spirit of off the cuff posting.

Anybody got photo`s of the dishes to give an idea of the portion sizes ?

I don't have photos of the dishes, but I can tell you that they are shared plates and not all that large.

I assume one can order as many plates as one likes, correct?

Yes, we were clearly told to order as many dishes as you would like.

The portion size is good and generous. I am typically satisfied with a three-course dinner there, whereas at the restaurant I typically order 4 courses.

Menu looks interesting and an improvement over Patio Grill, at least for us. Anyone know if Earth & Ocean has made it onto any ship other than Ovation? Quest and Encore specifically?

Yes, I think the portion size would be very generous for one. We shared each plate, so, for us, they were two small servings. This is what our server suggested and it meant we could try more dishes.

Thanks for that overview... I had wondered exactly how Earth & Ocean differed from the Patio Grill.

We are not big fans of the Patio Grill at night but this seems more our speed. We look forward to trying it on Ovation in November and I’m crossed by my fingers that it migrated to Odyssey by the transatlantic as it seems like it’s perfect for the Caribbean sailings that start in December.

;)

+1

We regret not dining more often at Earth and Ocean! It was a combination of chilly weather and dining with friends in other venues which kept us away. Next time!

That would be the spill chucker. :evilsmile::evilsmile:
