THE BaNqUET ' s ALL PREPARED

BY STEPHANIE SHUSTER

This month marks 30 years since Belle and the Beast waltzed out of the ballroom and into our hearts in one of the most enduring Disney animated classics .

" Be Our Guest " is absolutely iconic and introduced many Disney fans to the culinary cabaret of French dining culture . Whether you grew up with the movie or remember watching it in awe with your kids , you ' ll be able to experience the tale as old as time when you sail aboard the Disney Wish . A suite of three ornate yet elegant destinations offers a romantic respite for couples and groups alike .
The Rose is a chic lounge inspired by the famous flower from the film where you can find fancy cocktails , aperitifs , amusebouche , and small plates . Palo Steakhouse pays homage to by-the-books majordomo Cogsworth with decor inspired by clocks and pendulums , a menu featuring the finest steaks in the world , Italian wines , and yes , the signature Palo chocolate soufe . Enchanté by Chef Arnaud Lallement is the pinnacle of fine French dining on the Disney Wish ( the menu was created by a three-Michelin-starred chef ) and tips its hat to Lumière , the film ' s flamboyant ( and flammable ) maître d '.
No one ' s gloomy or complaining about this highly anticipated space aboard the Wish , but the question remains : Will they serve a variation of the grey stuff ?
