Holland America Line is launching a global fresh fish program by engaging a network of 60 ports to source and serve 80 types of fresh fish in all its restaurants,– promising to go from port to plate in less than 48 hours.
HAL had already pledged to be the first cruise line to serve 100 per cent fresh, certified sustainable Alaska seafood on board its ships in Alaska. Now the cruise line will offer passengers fresh fish and ingredients native to various regions in the other regions it sails.
“‘We know fresh fish is part of our guests’ daily lifestyle, and when they come on board, we are excited to expand their options beyond what they have access to at home,” said Holland America Line president Gus Antorcha. “The ability to source and prepare so many types of fish globally is a testament to our outstanding culinary team. From yellowtail snapper in the Caribbean to barramundi in Australia, the variety of fresh fish we offer is unrivalled in the cruise industry.’
