Remy Brunch

[Tshbosco]

Anyone done the champagne journey? We’re looking for a listing of the five champagnes included in the journey.

Did it a couple of weeks ago. I enjoyed it - thought the different champagnes were interesting. Not sure I’d do it again as it was pretty expensive, though ($140).
Champagnes were:
Krug Grande Cuvée
Ruinart Blanc De Blancs
Perrier Jouet Belle Epoque Rosé ‘12
Dom Perignon ‘08
Taittinger Nocturne

 

[Tshbosco]

Agreed. Thanks. Probably a once in a lifetime experience for us. Missed getting a photo before we left. All were wonderful but loved the Krug the most.

Exactly why we don't do it in the first place.

We did a less fancy champagne experience (3 glasses, one of which was Moet Ice, and one was this amazing good "Pop" champagne that was a surprise hit, and forget the third). But really it is 4 glasses because they give you one glass (Taittinger on our cruise) included at the start of your brunch. It was amazing, and it was only thirty-something dollars additional per person. Highly worth it, in my view, and I doubt I could drink much more than 4 glasses in a meal anyway--the pours were pretty generous, and I more or less floated away from that brunch.

P.S. For anyone who remembers me saying in an earlier post I'd never do the Remy Brunch due to the price and the fixed courses, I totally caved. It was our 10th anniversary, and we couldn't get Palo, so I figured what they hey and splurged, and boy am I glad I did--it was the highlight of the cruise! That scallop dish is unbelievable.

Glad you had such a good experience! We love Remy - always try to do either dinner or brunch whenever we’re on one of the Dream-class ships. I agree about the “regular” champagne pairing. We usually order one and my wife and I split it, which is plenty. We did the “journey” this time just because the choices seemed so interesting, but that was really a one-time thing. Even though we shared it, we both felt a little boozy for the rest of the afternoon

We did exactly this. Three glasses of wine was perfect. Fantastic experience. Tow Maters Grill needs Poulet Rouge and Pain de St. Jacques!!!!
