Pauline Masotta | 9/27/23, 4:01 PM

It's one of Paris's benchmark dinner cruises. A blend of gastronomy and eco-responsibility, Ducasse sur Seine will welcome Thibaut Spiwack alongside Jean-Philippe Berens, for an exceptional meal.

Take to the high seas! On Monday, October 9, 2023, Thibaut Spiwack, chef of the Anona restaurant, and Jean-Philippe Berens, chef of the Ducasse sur Seine, will be converging on the same goal: to delight you! Sharing a common philosophy focused on responsible gastronomy, the two chefs will be highlighting their way of cooking based on seasonal produce and short distribution channels. And to embody their commitment to eco-responsibility, what better way than aboard the 100%-electric Ducasse sur Seine, where their meeting in the kitchen promises a timeless gourmet pause.

Haute cuisine in five parts

Visit Paris differently. That's the promise of the Ducasse sur Seine. Without a sound, travelers will have the sensation of gliding along the water before settling down for a culinary voyage around the capital. Thibaut Spiwack and Jean-Philippe Berens have devised a five-step menu based on two seasonal products. Jean Philippe Berens will propose "Croustillant de homard bleu, coriandre et sésame, caviar Kristal", followed by Thibaut Spiwack's "Nuage de champignons Intramuros au beurre de cacao, herbes des toits de Paris".

Guests will continue their escapade with "Petit pâté chaud de canard sauvage et foie gras, betteraves acidulées" imagined by Jean-Philippe Berens, followed by a "Belle tranche de turbot sauvage de Normandie, financier de courge à la noisette de Seine-et-Marne, fumet lacté", proposed by Thibaut Spiwack. To conclude, Jean-Philippe Berens has imagined a "Composition figs lightly smoked, pollen and honey ice cream". All in all, a cruise that promises to tantalize more than one taste bud.
