Oceania Cruises’ Red Ginger expands menu with creative Nikkei dishes
Culinary and destination-centric cruise line Oceania Cruises adds 12 new, flavourful, and creative Nikkei dishes to its signature Pan-Asian restaurant Red Ginger. This menu expansion brings a vibrant fusion of Peruvian flavors and refined Japanese culinary techniques and tastes to sea. The innovative menu items recently debuted aboard Oceania Vista and will be available on the line's newest ship, Oceania Allura which launches next month. The new Nikkei dishes will be added to the rest of the fleet by early 2026. Oceania Cruises’ chief luxury officer Jason Montague said: "The carefully crafted new Nikkei menu items further augment the ongoing evolution of our driving philosophy of serving The Finest Cuisine at Sea. Our industry-leading culinary team is constantly seeking to introduce our well-traveled guests to new experiences and flavors, while honoring our commitment to culinary excellence," said Jason Montague, Chief Luxury Officer of Oceania Cruises. Executive culinary director Alexis Quaretti added: "This new Nikkei offering is a tangible example of the magic that emerges when cultures intertwine. Our passion for culinary innovation is fueled by constantly listening to our guests, noting their ever-expanding palates and deep curiosity to try new dishes and taste profiles. The introduction of these new Nikkei dishes is a result of our guests' appetite for bold new flavors, and this is just the beginning of even more exciting developments on the horizon." What exactly is Nikkei cuisine? Nikkei cuisine traces its origins to the late 19th century, when Japanese immigrants settled in Peru. Over time, immigrants missing the taste of home adapted traditional Japanese recipes with native Peruvian ingredients, resulting in a distinctive taste marked by fresh seafood, bright citrus, soy-based sauces, and spicy peppers. Unlike many long-established culinary traditions, Nikkei cuisine is refreshingly flexible as it honors customs and simultaneously embraces experimentation, an ethos that aligns perfectly with Oceania Cruises. The cruise line is deepening its guests' understanding of Nikkei food through this new menu rollout, an initiative supported by chef Gustavo Sugay, who brings more than 20 years of experience preparing this dynamic cuisine.

Devasom Hua Hin offers guests the regal flavours of khao chae
Devasom Hua Hin invites guests to savour the traditional Thai dish khao chae at Deva Bistro. While khao chae is essentially a summer dish, this fine example of royal Thai cuisine may now be enjoyed all year round thanks to the resort's talented culinary team. It is another way by which Devasom Hua Hin offers its guests the elegant nuances of Thailand’s rich cultural heritage. What is khao chae? Literally translated as “rice soaked in water,” khao chae has been served since the reign of King Rama II. Known for its complexity, it consists of four key elements: par-boiled rice, jasmine-scented water, ice, and an array of side dishes. At Devasom Hua Hin, chefs elevate this dish using flower-scented water made from homegrown bread flowers (dok chommanat) that are repeatedly infused with aromatic candle smoke. The rice is meticulously half-cooked, scrubbed to remove most of its starch, then steamed again to achieve a refreshingly unique texture. The cooked rice is accompanied by a selection of flavourful side dishes, including bell peppers stuffed with minced pork and wrapped in egg, deep-fried shrimp paste balls, radishes stir-fried in coconut milk, shredded dried pork floss, and sweet Yee-Son fish. The dish is presented at the table alongside the intricately carved fruits and vegetables renowned in Thai cuisine. In order to appreciate the fine flavours of the dish, a diner should begin by pouring the fragrant water and ice over the rice; each spoonful is then dipped into the water to absorb the floral aroma. One then tastes the side dishes one by one, keeping them separate from the rice to savour their distinct flavours. This regal dining experience is offered daily at Deva Bistro at Devasom Hua Hin for lunch or dinner.
