World-class fine dining in the Maldives at Soneva Fushi

[@karloscv1781]

I wonder if people can appreciate how insane this standard of variety is. I've been in a 2 Michelin star restaurant and the kitchen was bigger than the sitting area. And the menu was like 1/10 of what we see here. It takes enormous amount of manpower, money and facility space to supply so many different food items in such a high quality.

[@SigisTravelVideos]

Well, most of the resorts on Maldives are pretty expensive and the manpower is cheap

[@paradonym]

That's where the 2500 USD minimum villa price disappear.

[@starlabaucum5658]

Probably not!!! Most are probably rude, hateful and don't have a thankful bone in their body!! Spoilt rich bratty people!!!

[@MarcusLeepapi]

Out of the Blue restaurant just sits on the water!!!! OMG!!!! The lights there are beautiful!!!!! Such an inspiration of a great restaurant!!! Thank you for showing this vacation video!!!!!

[@flbeachinggirl]

I would cry when I arrived and departed. So Nice!

[@MarcusLeepapi]

The Down to Earth restaurant with those light on the beach looks so heavenly!!!!

The videos of yours just show what dreams are really made of and lets us forget all the hardships of our life. Everyday videos of your channel just motivate us to work really hard to our dreams. Have been following your videos for last 2 years and the happiness quotient it offers is paramount. Out of all your videos, I have stayed at Four Season, Sayan, Ubud, Bali & Four Season Jimbaran Bay, Bali and believe me your video covered it more beautifully than I could have experienced when I stayed at those properties. Love all the way from India !

[@luxurytravelexpert]

Thank you! My next series of trip reports will be about India :-)

[@prasadshinde917]

@@luxurytravelexpert : Eagerly awaiting for all the beautiful videos !

[@MarcusLeepapi]

Yes, when you came back to the resort for dinner that evening, the Asian station was just really nice!!!!!!!Anytime I see sushi and sashimi I get calm to enjoy what I am look at....My heart just goes crazy...Having been to Hong Kong many times, I love many of the Asian selections of great food....So nice...….

[@anawhatapiha]

My dreams and I am sure others are made when we watch your videos. I appreciate the ability to be able to travel with you and experience the vistas, the places and the food which will always be a dream but in some way has been a reality. You have and I hope will continue to allow me to travel with you and experience the world thru your lenses. While I may be grounded I am with you in your travels. My sincerest appreciation as I feel I am travelling the world. Cheers Scotty, Australia.........................

Being physically disabled (amputee) and on a fixed income, there is a snowball's chance in [REDACTED] that I will ever experience anything like this during my lifetime.

[@kamalashila3549]

Love your new video format, it's easier to watch than the regular long format!

[@MarcusLeepapi]

You started a great selection phase of the music starting at about 6:10 with the evening food. Those outdoor station chefs men and women looked wonderful in serving the guest...And n the dessert room the chocolate fountain looks nice along with the rest of the dessert...The music selection end there at about 12:13. That was simply a great experience!!!!!!!!! Thank you....

You make excellent detailed videos. I can say that The Maldives were on my “Must Do This Lifetime List”. Your videos quickly moved them into the “Must Do This Year List”.

Thank you for this video, I love watching fine dining. Would you be able to also include names of the dishes in the future? That would be much appreciated.

[@KimmyQueen]

Or at least the name of the cuisine per section in a buffet. But names of individual plates would be nice but a lot of work. Or show the menu

[@dennisdalessio8238]

WOW! Great presentation. The Sushi looked amazing. Cannot wait until tomorrow. Thanks

Never been to Soneva Fushi, but have been to several other islands in the Maldives. And I have to say that most of them have awesome fine dinning.

This is a wonderful video! I've seen video's from the Maldives, this series of video's are awe inspiring! I do have a question though, in light of all the food out in the open like that, doesn't it attract every bug? Also, does it ever rain there? If not, and no bugs, I'm moving tomorrow! Keep up the great videos!

[@magnificentgoldenbeast6099]

I'm still skeptical of their claims about not wasting food or whatever. That's what they claim but the details may prove otherwise. All that cooking takes energy. Throwing food into the ocean is simple recycling/composting but still there is tons of energy wasted in the cooking. Giving the stale food to employees or charities may work somewhat but the food doesn't last long in a tropical environment. Usually, claims of zero emissions or full recycling or "sustainability" -- are bullshit. But I don't care about the environment. The Earth is far better at recycling everything than we are. It's just a matter of whether they tell the truth or use tricks of language to sell themselves.

[@davidhaymitchell7084]

Great video...I was wondering, are all meals included in the room rate or are they charged separately?

[@forwardingaddress6533]

I believe you can select a ‘menu pass’ during reservation where you can choose for breakfast, lunch, dinner or all in one pass, which makes dining free.

[@bluefive1727]

I'm not sure so many younger guests would appreciate all the 'fine dining'. Are there any dinner menus/food more suited to a child's palette? (Apart from desserts, I'm sure they'd have no problem there)

Yes, plenty of child menus indeed :-)

No waste is generated, I know what you mean, but for sure a lot of food is thrown away.

Ahh... garnishes fluttering in the ocean breeze. (I feel a haiku coming on...)

[@paradonym]

Almost every furniture and plate is made locally - like on the island. That's kinda genious, because it's the cheapest to get while it's an argument to raise guests prices...
