Caribbean Cuisine by Land and Sea⁠
By Carolyn O’Neil⁠
⁠
They say a voyage isn’t just about the destination; it’s about the journey. But why not savor both? If incredible food excites you when you travel, choosing a cruise ship itinerary featuring curated culinary experiences both onboard and ashore is one of the best ways to take your taste buds. Celebrating its tenth anniversary partnering with the esteemed James Beard Foundation, Windstar Cruises maintains its commitment to haute cuisine on the high seas.⁠
⁠
Various cruises throughout the year showcase chefs associated with the Foundation. Visiting chefs lead shore excursions to local food markets, conduct recipe demonstrations, and curate special dinners. The menus on all itineraries include courses created by James Beard Foundation chefs, dishes crafted with regional ingredients, and always an innovative selection of plant-based options. Whether you fancy a filet mignon, grilled mahi-mahi, or mushroom risotto, the ship’s galley stands ready to serve. You can even take a behind-the-scenes galley tour to see how the chefs keep their kitchens shipshape.⁠
⁠
I chose the Caribbean as my culinary classroom at sea, sailing on Windstar’s Star Pride, one of the cruise line’s all-suite yachts. Windstar’s vessels host around three hundred guests or fewer, enabling them to visit exclusive ports that larger ships cannot accommodate.⁠
⁠
The voyage from Puerto Rico to Barbados included multiple port stops to explore the vibrant and diverse cuisines of the Caribbean islands.⁠

South Walton Chef Nikhil Abuvala Earns 2025 James Beard Award Nomination⁠
Story and photography courtesy of Walton County Tourism and Chef Nikhil Abuvala⁠
⁠
South Walton, Florida, is celebrated for its twenty-six miles of sugar-white sand and turquoise waters, but its culinary scene truly distinguishes this destination. With award-winning chefs and over two hundred restaurants, it offers a genuine culinary adventure across sixteen beach neighborhoods. South Walton also provides private culinary experiences and unique meals prepared in the comfort of locals’ homes and visitors’ condos or rental properties. One private experience that has gained popularity among locals and visitors alike is Roux30a, created by chef and restaurateur Nikhil Abuvala, recently recognized as a James Beard Award semifinalist for Best Chef of the South.⁠
⁠
Roux 30a, an intimate, chef-driven dining experience in Grayton Beach, has received acclaim for its immersive tasting menus and dedication to locally sourced ingredients. The Daytrader Tiki Bar & Restaurant in Seaside offers a fresh take on tropical flavors, blending traditional tiki culture with elevated coastal fare. Nanbu Noodle Bar, beloved for its rich broths, bao buns, and sushi, became a favorite among ramen lovers, and although it has closed, there are plans in progress for reopening in a larger location. Abuvala’s latest venture, Saladita Taquería, debuted in Grayton Beach in early March this year and highlights a bold, street-style taco experience with house-made tortillas, slow-braised meats, and inventive toppings.⁠

As the scent of orange blossoms drifts through Sev

As the scent of orange blossoms drifts through Sevilla’s winding cobblestone streets and the sounds of flamenco guitar fill the air, there’s no better time to visit Spain’s most intoxicating city than this May. The legendary Feria de Abril—an explosion of Andalusian culture, equestrian pageantry, and all-night revelry—returns, offering travelers an unforgettable immersion into one of Europe’s most spectacular festivals. This year, the Feria takes place May 6 – May 11, 2025. ⁠
⁠
For those seeking to experience the Feria in style, Hotel EME Catedral Mercer provides an unrivaled home base in the heart of Sevilla’s historic quarter. Steps from the city’s breathtaking Giralda and Catedral de Sevilla, this five-star boutique retreat blends centuries-old architectural charm with sleek, modern luxury. Guests can indulge in rooftop cocktails with panoramic views of the illuminated cathedral, unwind in the serene rooftop pool, or savor local cuisine at the hotel’s signature restaurant.⁠
⁠
But the true magic lies in the exclusive Feria de Abril experience offered by the hotel’s dedicated concierge. From sourcing exquisite traje de flamenca dresses and dapper trajes cortos for guests to fully embrace the Andalusian spirit to securing coveted access to the most exclusive private casetas at the fairgrounds, Hotel EME Catedral Mercer ensures that travelers don’t just witness the Feria—they live it like a local.⁠
⁠
While Feria de Abril’s casetas and flamenco-filled nights take center stage, Sevilla in spring is a feast for the senses. By day, stroll through the grandiose Plaza de España, take in the aroma of jasmine in the Alcázar’s lush gardens, or sip chilled fino sherry along the sun-dappled Guadalquivir River. And with Hotel EME Catedral Mercer’s privileged location, every must-see sight—plus the city’s vibrant tapas bars and chic boutiques—is just moments away.⁠
