Gourmet Meals Aboard Hotel Barge Prospérité
Dining aboard Prospérité is a true delight. Let the chef captivate your taste buds with fresh and elegant French cuisine. Wake up to croissants and French baguettes still warm from the oven – accompanied by a buffet of fresh fruit, cereals, yogurts, jams and jellies, and on request, eggs any way you like. Usually served on deck, lunch is an ever-changing array of buffets from salads, quiche, pate, bread, fresh fruit and local cheeses.
While dinner is in an elegant setting, feel free to wear informal attire. Sit back, relax and enjoy a gourmet meal which is full of flavor and light in feeling. Take pleasure in wines, especially chosen for each meal and selected from numerous French vineyards. You'll get the opportunity to try vintages new to you – as well as enjoy old favorites. All told, onboard alone you will sample 24 wines and 36 cheeses on your week aboard Prospérité.
