Aboard the Pacific Aria, Pacific Explorer and the Pacific Adventure you’ll find the exquisitely exotic Dragon Lady. Boasting elegant décor and a sultry, intimate atmosphere, Dragon Lady offers a range of delicious dishes inspired by Chinese, Thai, Indian and Japanese cuisine.

Celebrity Cruises – Silk Harvest

The first Asian eatery in the Celebrity Cruises fleet, Silk Harvest is a delicious addition to the line’s specialty restaurants. The vibrant décor, hospitable staff and laid-back atmosphere of the restaurant make it a welcoming place to enjoy a meal – and that’s not even to mention the food!

Combining dishes and flavours from Chinese, Japanese, Thai and Vietnamese cuisine, Silk Harvest offers something for all the family. Think share plates of Kung Pao chicken and duck red curry, dessert infused with Asian elements like coconut milk and caramelised banana, and shots of fine sake to finish it all off.
