- My P&O Ventura series continues with this, our evening at speciality dining experience, the Epicurean, which can also be found on Azura, Britannia, Iona and Arvia, with the same / similar menus. You need to put aside 2 1/2 hours minimum for this experience as there are multiple courses and there’s also a surcharge to eat here (all covered in they vlog). So, come with us, explore the menu, the food, the drink, the ambience and let me know what you think below!

Loosen those belts and makes yourselves comfortable! It’s a double whammy this weekend with 2 vlogs for the price of 1 😂 Enjoy! ❤
❤❤❤
Off on Azura on Saturday and have booked this restaurant for my Mum's birthday 😊
Enjoy 😊
Ooooh, that Langoustine & Mojito dish is right up my street 😋
🤢
Omg I can't believe how good a price that was for the quality of food you had. Thanks for yet another very detailed and helpful post. I am not really looking forward to celebrating my husbands birthday with him at the epicurean on arvia xxx
Oh I hope you have a great time! Happy birthday to the husband
Thank you Jamie, that was a very informative vlog, we are on Brittania in Sept and we're thing of booking the Epicurean. After seeing the review and the food we definitely will be booking it.
You’re very welcome and I hope you enjoy!
Great family video! I really enjoyed The Epicurean on Iona and thought it was worth every penny. A good variety on the menu and everything served hot and well presented. I'm definitely going to book when we're onboard Arvia.
Agreed - worth it! Looking forward to trying on Arvia ❤️❤️❤️
Thanks for another mouth-wateringly good video Jamie! We love the Epicurian, especially those little extra touches like the bread choices, marmite butter, and that palate cleanser 😍
Totally agree with you on it being worth the cost - for an experience like that we would expect to pay a lot more on other lines or ashore.
There are also some great wine choices on offer - we definitely recommend The Holy Snail sauvignon blanc. Not only is it one of the best white wines we've tried for a very long time, it's also one of the cheapest on the menu 😊
I love the holy snail wine ❤️ 100% agree!
We enjoyed the Epicurean on Britannia - was a great experience! The food that you had looked really good. We think it’s worth the money for the food (quality and taste) and the service
I agree - worth it for what is a lengthy and well executed experience ❤️
@@TravelBlogJamie Service is great anyway but there were only 5 tables when we went last so the service was excellent! We would definitely book again
@@CruisingColemans oh wow that’s an intimate experience!!
Just beautiful,well worth the supplement, lovely your mum enjoyed it.
She really liked this one!
That looked delicious and I now need Marmite butter in my life!
Haha! It’s a game changer 😁
I loved the Epicurean on Ventura, the best one in the fleet. Xx
I have to agree with you!
I love Marmite butter soooo much! A restaurant local to us does it and it is gorgeous!
I need to buy a batch online
@@TravelBlogJamie just make some lazy bum! 😂
@@cocktailswithlisa I am NOT spending my time whipping butter with marmite 😂
You certainly like your food! Mx
It’s one of the things I adore about travel
Excellent review Jamie, your main and dessert especially looked great.
We didn’t go on Ventura but plan to next year on Iona and arvia, any differences and how do they compare?
Differences between Iona and Arvia? Not too many as sister ships - Arvia certainly looks more suited for warmer climes with a swim up bar and a couple exclusive eateries. Arvia will have a rope course and escape room which Iona doesn’t have. As for onboard distilleries, Iona is all about the gin whilst Arvia will be about the rum!
@@TravelBlogJamie great information cannot wait to compare. Was just wandering if epicurean differs across the fleet? Menu etc? Apologies didn’t word my question very well.
So glad it’s rum instead of gin, we more rum drinkers!
@@cruisingwiththe4bs epicurean features on all the newer ships and menu currently the same on each as in my video
I had dinner on Britannia in the Epicurian. The menu was exactly the same as your but I was disappointed with the food. I felt it was all under seasoned and less exciting than it should have been.
This menu has been unchanged for at least three years and it is certainly time for a change. Even on Iona it is the same. I know Covid is blamed but I think it it laziness and complacency , so sorry P&O
I’d like a new menu now too. Our mean was very good on Ventura but on Britannia it was below par
Totally agree. We ate steaks that were like shoe leather! Avoid...
I'm off on my first ever cruise next month on Ventura, and I'm going on my own. Do you think it would be odd to go to Epicurean alone? I'm thinking about what I want to try, and the opportunity to eat somewhere like this is very tempting!
I'm fine with eating alone, but wonder if the experience aspect will be missing.
I’d absolutely eat here solo. It’s a longer meal though so you need about 2 to 2 1/2 hours! If you’re ok with that as a solo, go
for it!
@@TravelBlogJamie Thanks! I hadn't quite appreciated the time it takes. I'll mull it over, but am pretty certain I'll go for it! Thank you for the reply, and enjoy your Half term!
@@emmabarnard6012 I hope you try it out!
I sail solo nearly always and I do use the Epicurean at least once. The staff are friendly and will look after you, just relax and enjoy the experience. If it is not too busy, ask for a window table so you can look out to sea, never lonely with a view!
Great vid, but i skimmed through to avoid ruining any Restaurant surpises they give :') are you allowed to order multiple dishes per course per person? Like 2 starters perhaps?
Hmmm I’m not sure about multiple courses and I haven’t seen this happen buuut can always ask!!
@@TravelBlogJamie haha will do thank you! :)
@@soniat6750 let me know what they say!
@@TravelBlogJamie i shall do! But my cruise isn't until nov 2023 haha i'm just excited and preplanning WAY ahead😂

@@akajasonbourne I looove chips and gravy anywhere in the planet btw 😂
❤❤❤
