I’m excited about my dinner on board Symphony Tokyo Bay Cruise and so are the other patrons all dressed up for the occasion with a look of anticipation on their faces.
And yes, the dining experience out on sea is magical. From the moment we step on board the ship, we are greeted by the ship crew and a place of splendour, with red carpets, intricate florid curtains and crystal chandeliers. Then we are ushered into a splendid, grand European style ballroom where there is live piano performance on a grand piano. It feels so surreal when the ship sets off to move out to the sea, cutting through gentle sea waves, going below the illuminated Tokyo Gate Bridge, venturing out into the unknown (sort of) and leaving behind the bustling city.
On top of impressive space and exclusivity of dining out on the sea, the great, professional and thoughtful service makes us feel like royalty.
Going up to the open deck is a must-do because it is such an awesome experience to look out at the vast open sea, see from afar the beautiful lights of Tokyo and feel the cool sea breeze.
There is also live saxophone performance to chill and relax to after the exciting time at the open deck.
Food wise, we are treated to a European style set dinner. The soup and bread with Butter are very good.
Appetiser, made up of raw fishes and salad, is quite okay.
The beef here is quite decent, but lack the buttery or creamy texture that I love in meat.
I can’t finish the fish. It just tastes off. To be fair, I’m very particular about eating fishes being perfectly prepared. And I do finish up the prawn.
The dessert is very nice.
Nonetheless, I still enjoy myself a lot. This cruise dinner is absolutely great for that special night or personal indulgence or simply to admire the landscape of Tokyo Bay.
Thoughts: Exclusive Beautiful Experience!
