Looking for a romantic date after the kids are in bed? Want to celebrate a special occasion, have a memorable date night, or simply indulge in some quality time together?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Look no further because we found the perfect way to spend an evening out – the London Jazz Dinner Cruise<\/a> on the River Thames by City Cruises! And here\u2019s why\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Picture this: You step aboard and are greeted with a welcome glass of sparkling wine, setting the tone for an evening you\u2019ll always remember. You are sipping your drink while taking in the iconic sights of London, with the majestic London Eye and the Big Ben right next to you. It’s a scene straight out of a romantic movie, and it’s about to get even better.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"City<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

As the boat leaves the Westminster Pier, you are served a sumptuous three-course meal showcasing British flavours. The starter is homemade ham hock & smoked chicken terrine perfectly paired with piccalilli, cornichons and croutons (pictured below). The main is confit of chicken with braised puy lentils, cabolo nero, crispy pancetta in red wine sauce. And to top it all off, a decadent chocolate fondant served with velvety creme anglaise. You can, of course, opt-in for the vegetarian option or specify any dietary requirements.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"City<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The best part of the cruise is the quintet of talented musicians who perfectly complement the meal and the scenic voyage. With a blend of classic jazz and timeless tunes, their music sets the perfect rhythm for a magical evening on the Thames. You can even get up and dance to your favourite songs!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"City<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

At any point throughout your lovely cruise, you can go upstairs to the open-air deck to see panoramic views of London\u2019s skyline! Watch the sun go down as the city lights illuminate the sky. Explore London\u2019s sights as you\u2019ve never seen before! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"City<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
