captain's dinner
Cruise gala feast
A captain's dinner is a formal meal hosted by the captain of a cruise ship, typically held on the final evening of a voyage.
Passengers dress in formal attire and may be invited to dine at the captain's table as a special honor.
The tradition dates to ocean liner travel, when dining with the captain signaled social distinction: We packed evening gowns for the captain's dinner.
