The SWISS ‘Connoisseur Experience’ is a new seasonally themed program that will be in addition to the existing First Class menu and will offer passengers unique dining options. The program is set to run 4 times over the next year, each for a 2 week period.

Sides will include Au Gratin potatoes, baked potatoes, spinach, and grilled corn. This menu will be in effect until September 15.
Then in November, the menu will shift take advantage of Truffle season including Truffle Carpaccio, Truffle Soup or a Truffle infused pasta dish.
February will see a focus on Seafood which will include Lobster, Crayfish and Coquilles St-Jacques.
May will feature a Caviar lovers ‘dream menu’ with different types of caviar including Prunier, Sevruga and Oona.
Though specific dates for the November, February and May programs have yet to be announced, it would not surprise me if it did not follow the same schedule as September’s and take placed from the 1st to 15th of each respective month.
