October 23, 2024 [Venice, California]

Cunard, renowned for delivering exceptional luxury at sea, is proud to announce a new partnership with Michelin-starred chef Nathan Outlaw. Together, they will bring the celebrated Outlaw’s Fish Kitchen to life on select Queen Victoria Mediterranean voyages.

Guests will be treated to an exclusive culinary experience as Nathan Outlaw brings his award-winning Outlaw’s Fish Kitchen to sea. Outlaw will personally oversee a series of intimate, five-course seafood tasting menus, featuring the finest Mediterranean ingredients, crafted with his signature flair.

The intimate, 60-guest dining events will offer an elevated seafood experience, combining Outlaw’s culinary vision with the exquisite setting of the Mediterranean coast, ensuring every meal is a special occasion.

The trailblazing restaurateur and esteemed Rick Stein protégé will collaborate with the luxury cruise line to exclusively deliver a quartet of Outlaw’s Fish Kitchen residencies aboard Queen Victoria during her Mediterranean season next summer.

The four-voyage series kicks off aboard a 14-night sailing from Barcelona to Civitavecchia (Rome) on 7 July, with Nathan sailing on the first seven nights of the voyage. 

The wider collaboration

Whilst on board, Nathan will host live cooking demonstrations and appear as an Insight Speaker in the Royal Court Theatre for a series of intimate Q&As focused on his rise to culinary stardom.

The news follows August’s announcement that Cunard will reunite with two Michelin-starred chef Michel Roux for a new series of Le Gavroche at Sea takeovers across four Fjords voyages in 2025.

Katie McAlister, President of Cunard, said: “At Cunard, we take great pride in curating exceptional dining experiences and this collaboration with Nathan Outlaw is no exception. Nathan’s reputation for excellence and his mastery of seafood perfectly complement our commitment to delivering the finest in luxury travel. We’re thrilled to offer our guests the exclusive opportunity to enjoy Outlaw’s Fish Kitchen while sailing on these beautiful Mediterranean itineraries.”

Nathan Outlaw added: “Teaming up with Cunard is a really exciting opportunity and I can’t wait to get on board Queen Victoria to showcase the very best of Outlaw’s. Being able to cook vibrant seafood dishes as guests overlook stunning sun-kissed locations on the continent will allow us to deliver a fully immersive experience of Mediterranean cuisine. I am hugely passionate about this style of food and I am looking forward to elevating luxury dining at sea to create something really special for Cunard.”
