Aiming to enhance its shipboard culinary operations, Holland America has created a culinary council composed of celebrated chefs from around the world.

The chefs will enrich Holland America Line's culinary initiatives and present signature recipes to be featured in all dining venues on all 15 ships.

Council members include Council Chairman and Holland America Line's Master Chef Rudi Sodamin, along with renowned international chefs Jonnie Boer, David Burke, Marcus Samuelsson, Jacques Torres and Charlie Trotter.

Besides sharing their insights on menus and culinary offerings, the council will consult on the line's Culinary Arts Center enrichment program to help create learning experiences for guests.--Tanya Irwin
