Cunard teams up with Michelin-starred Chef Nathan Outlaw

Cunard has announced a partnership with Michelin-starred Chef Nathan Outlaw, who will bring Outlaw's Fish Kitchen to life on select Queen Victoria Mediterranean voyages.

Chef Outlaw will oversee a series of intimate, five-course seafood tasting menus, featuring the finest Mediterranean ingredients, Cunard says.

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. It will unfold 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 July 7, with Outlaw sailing on the first seven nights of the voyage.

The wider collaboration

While on board, Outlaw will host live cooking demonstrations and appear as an Insights 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.

"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,” said Katie McAlister, president of Cunard, in a statement.

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."
