Virgin Voyages announced it would bring the vibrant flavors
of Spain to the high seas with Rojo by Razzle Dazzle, a Spanish-inspired
restaurant debuting aboard Brilliant
Lady.
The addition of Rojo by Razzle Dazzle follows the success of
Lucky Lotus by Razzle Dazzle, the Chinese-inspired restaurant that launched in
November aboard Scarlet Lady.
Acclaimed chefs Justin Severino and Nate Hobart will co-helm
Rojo by Razzle Dazzle, bringing their ingredient-driven, sharable dining
innovations to sea. Some of their favorite recipes are also going along for the
ride, as the new menu will feature Morcilla’s legendary Oxtail Montadito.
“Virgin Voyages set out to be a disruptor from day one, and
our culinary program – with Michelin-chef designed menus and boundary pushing
creativity – was always central to that mission,” Director of Culinary Program
Development, Levi Mezick, said. “Spanish cuisine and the communal dining
traditions complement our commitment to authentic yet innovative experiences
for our Sailors.”
By day, Razzle’s signature brunch will have a
Spanish-American twist served in a casual atmosphere. When the sun sets, though,
Rojo transforms into an elevated dining experience pulsing with vibrant Spanish
energy.
Ensuring the cocktails live up to the cuisine, Virgin
Voyages partnered with Onada Consulting from Barcelona to bring an authentic
Spanish touch. The cruise line also reimagined the Razzle Dazzle space for Rojo
to create an environment that honors Spain's communal dining traditions.
Along with a new restaurant concept, Virgin Voyages recently
unveiled seven original productions that will debut on Brilliant Lady this
fall.
