What it feels like: Dinner cruises seem a bit hard to say in terms of food, where you usually end up paying for the experience rather than the cooking products. This is a rare exception. Bateaux Dubai is the only glass window cruise on the Dubai Creek. It has modern wood and glass interiors, gently floating up and down the waterways, and talented duo performing live chamber music-everything is very civilized. The menu is varied-considering the limitations of mobile kitchens-and all the food is freshly prepared. After being greeted by fresh strawberry non-alcoholic cocktails, appetizer platter and mouth-watering mushroom soup, we settled down to order-I chose a duck salad to start, and my partner chose a go full of wild mushrooms Bone quail. Both dishes are beautifully presented with unique flavors. For the main course, I chose grilled sea bass with creamy mushroom sauce, asparagus and grilled mussels, it was delicious. But I ended up envious of the homemade basil and potato gnocchi, slow-cooked beef shreds and smoked bone marrow juice on the other side of the table. With such a generous portion, we hardly have any space for dessert, but we cannot refuse to offer very rich hazelnut-coated puffs with cognac and date ice cream. I chose the classic chocolate fudge with toasted almond ice cream. The warm hot pudding, the melted chocolate oozes, is perfectly set off by the ice cream, it is one of the best chocolate treats I have ever tried. When you relax with tea and four small chocolates, the boat will return on time at 11pm. Although it may be seen as a must-do for travel, the food it offers is of high quality and it is also a great choice for special occasions.
