Zero Foreigners, Tatami Mats, and a Boat Full of Food; Our Tokyo Bay Night
After a rather jammed packed first day in Japan we were looking forward to relaxing and getting doted on a little bit at the river cruise. We took the shuttle to the Tokyo bay docks then waited in the sitting area. Once it was our time to get on the boat, they of course made up take off their shoes as the cooking/sitting area in the boat was all tatami mates. We quickly realized we were the only foreigners on the boat and the staff looked a little concerned, properly wondering how in the world did a foreigner find out about the boat cruises they do. haha. They were very polite and still served us very well.
For years I've had the terrace restaurant on my bucket list. The beautiful views and out of this world food and service I couldn't wait to see. The world renowned Mission hill winery right along the Okanagan lake is like stepping into a Italian winery. The terrace restaurant is built on two wings with an outdoor amphitheatre between, all overlooking the lake and the vines. Since Justin booked it, I wasn't really sure of the cost, until we sat down and the preplanned out 5 course meal boasted a price of over 150 per person. Needless to say we didn't do anything else for our anniversary a couple weeks later. Lol Have to say I would Definity go back and do a tour and tasting in the future.
