| Uniworld is cooking

UNIWORLD Boutique River Cruises has named Robert van Rijsbergen its new Culinary Director.

He will be responsible for culinary operations on all ships, assisting in the implementation of new food concepts and menu designs.

Van Rijsbergen also plans to foster continuous development and training of Uniworld’s culinary crews.

“Throughout my years of cooking I have been exposed to so many wonderful ingredients from all over the world,” said Van Rijsbergen.

“I hope to take Uniworld guests on a journey through these wonders, transforming the magic and authenticity of fresh local foods from the glorious places we sail, into exquisite meals that ignite tastebuds and highlight the unique flavours of the location.

“It is also incredibly important that cuisine not only pays homage to the surrounding cultures, but also directly gives back to the communities and land.”
