World famous food

An unforgettable dining experience is a highlight of every good holiday. We’ve partnered with Luke Mangan to bring you the first Australian celebrity chef restaurant at sea – Salt grill by Luke Mangan. Luke harnesses his experience, creativity and passion to turn the freshest and finest Australian ingredients into signature dishes like the crab omelet, enoki mushroom salad with miso broth, and the famous liquorice parfait with lime syrup. For an elegant meal or a haute high tea, one taste and you’ll soon see why he’s been invited to cook for former U.S President Bill Clinton, Richard Branson, Tom Cruise and at the wedding of Danish Crown Prince Fredrick and Princess Mary. At sea, Salt grill is exclusive to P&O cruises and its popularity has inspired land-based Salt grill restaurants in some of the best cities across the globe.
