Chef David Burke dinner cruise coming in June to Atlantic Highlands

Summer is the season for boating at the Shore, and Chef David Burke is bringing fine dining to the high seas with "The GOAT Boat" Supper Club.

Hosted by Teal Cruises and setting sail from Atlantic Highlands Marina on Sunday, June 9, the three-course dinner cruise will be served aboard the 85-foot Festiva. Named for Burke's Union Beach restaurant, the cruise will feature a menu of maple and black pepper-glazed bacon, watermelon and asparagus salad with burrata, braised short ribs with popovers, and grilled fish with pasta and green beans.

Dessert will be the chef's signature cake pop tree and Key lime pie from Dixie Lee Bakery by David Burke in Keansburg.

The event will be the first of several throughout the season, according to a news release, "each with a different menu or theme, perhaps even a 'surf-n’-turf' one which will present appetizers on The GOAT Boat while the remainder of the meal will be served at The GOAT by David Burke."

Tickets cost $150 per person and include a welcome glass of champagne or wine, plus dancing. The cruise will take place from 6 to 9 p.m., with boarding beginning at 5:30 p.m. Atlantic Highlands Marina is at 2 Simon Lake Drive.
