The world’s best airlines are finding innovative ways to make in-flight dining a memorable experience. Air Transat– which has been named Best North American Leisure Airline by Skytrax for five years running –, accomplishes this by launching a brand new partnership with celebrated Québec chef Daniel Vézina.

The Chef’s Menu by Daniel Vézina is a premium, seasonal dining program featuring delicious recipes that draw from chef Vézina’s 30 years of experience. As the co-owner of the Laurie Raphaël restaurants in Québec and Montreal, chef Vézina is a leader in Québec’s culinary scene. He also launched his own health food counter, La Serre, last May.

In its debut season, the Chef’s Menu by Daniel Vézina’s features thoughtfully-prepared dishes such as duck confit lasagna with spinach and a sherry and foie gras emulsion as well as a braised leg of lamb with spices, maple syrup and Indian vegetable curry. There are also excellent vegan and vegetarian options available on chef Vézina’s menu such as sweet potato gnocchi with red wine bolognese, spinach pesto and parmesan shavings.

All dishes will be served with a cheese plate, dessert and a glass of wine and selections will update seasonally, with the next menu scheduled for Fall 2017.

The Chef’s Menu by Daniel Vézina will be offered complimentary to Club Class passengers on all flights before 10pm. It’s just one of the ways that Air Transat is bringing its Club Class members a premium onboard experience, along with larger reclining seats, pillows and other amenities. The Chef’s Menu by Daniel Vézina is also available to Economy Class passengers for $25 in limited quantity on transatlantic flights. As of July 1st, the Chef’s Menu will be available for Economy Class passengers flying to the Caribbean.
