As
a frequent traveller, I am not new to cruise holiday. I still remember my first
cruise experience at more than 20 years ago, thanks to my lovely aunty for
brought me on-board with her on her cruise holiday. It was an eye opening experience
to a teenager like me, I remember what I did was eat, play and enjoy the
relaxing time on that cruise holiday.
Over
the years, I have been on Star Cruises holiday a few times with my lovely other
half. We enjoy the lovely food, and happening time on the cruise. When I got to
know that Hwajing Travel & Tours was launching “Royal High Tea” onboard
Superstar Libra, I couldn’t resist participating to see what’s so special about
it.
As
human being, we all love to be appreciated, and feel special. This time,
Hwajing and star cruise has made their effort to bring the extraordinary cruise
holiday experience to their passenger. Imagine enjoying the exclusive Royal
Hospitality at the “Royal High Tea” on the sea, onboard Superstar Libra. Isnt’
that cool?
So,
I and a bunch of fellow bloggers and media have made our way from KL to Port
Swettenham, Penang on a fine weekend to feel the experience ourselves. All thanks
to Hwajing Travel and Tours.
In
fact, Hwajing Travel and Tours has been playing as the pioneer in establishing
trends in the Malaysian Cruise Industry. Throughout the years, it has provided
and designed various cruise travel packages that distinguish itself from the
other travel agencies. The travel packages offered to the public are unique yet
affordable to excite passengers.
In
the fast changing and high expectation of market, Hwajing Travel and Tours,
with their trained eyes in observing and spotting the needs of the travelers,
is always seeking for new ideas to reshape the travel package. The new launch
of Hwajing’s “Royal High Tea” is specially designed to enrich the cruise
experience for cruise travelers.
During
the launch, Managing Director of Hwajing Group, Mr. Kenny Cheong Keen Lee said,
“The main objective of introducing the “Royal High Tea” onboard Superstar
Libra, for cruise traveller get away from hectic lifestyle, for pampering and discovering
the greatest and “quality” moment in the world. We wish to inspire and educate
our passenger on how to celebrate and enjoy a good times by rewarding ourself a
majestic and distinctive of afternoon tea, a taste for life pursuing unique
experience in our lifetime. ”
“After
much planning with our long time partner – Star Cruises, we are pleased to
present the “Royal High Tea” exclusively to our passenger onboard Superstar
Libra, and we are proud to be leading travel agency in Malaysia to introduce
this enthralling afternoon tea concept and embed in our cruise packages. ” He
added.
Unique
from other cruise packages, the “Royal High Tea” onboard Superstar Libra is
specifically custom-made for Hwajing’s passenger. Mr. Kenny Cheong shared his
insight about the “Royal High Tea” concept, “British Royal Family is known for
its elegance and refined culture in enjoying high tea. This is an important
social activity for the royals as it represents the status, identity and wealth
of the participants. The British High Tea often consists of black tea, fine
porcelain tea sets, clean white tablecloth, three-tier dessert stand and
exquisite British refreshment.”
Hwajing
Travel and Tours sincerely endeavors to offer the “Royal High Tea” in the
Superstar Libra that follows the truest style of the Royal High Tea much like
the British. Elegant drinking atmosphere and professional steward service
standards are guaranteed. Every steward attendant is well trained in line with
afternoon tea standard operating procedures and will be ensured to be clad in
the traditional steward outfit, white gloves and white napkins.
Once
we seated, the well trained steward attendant would explained the tea
available to us and note down our preference. I love that they have chosen Twinings
tea, a renowned tea brand with a history dating back to 1706. The tea
selections various from English Breakfast, Earl Grey, Peppermint to Green Tea.
Once
we decided our tea, all we need to do was to sit back, relax and enjoy the high
tea at the lovely four seasons restaurant, overlooking the beautiful sea.
The
3 tiers high tea taste great, we especially love the hot dishes including prawn
fritter, savory quiche, baked mushroom mini pie, mini ratatouille on tart,
smoked salmon on brioche, aloo vada on prate bread, smoked duck on mini
baguette, camembert cheese on rye roll, tuna mousse on croissant roll, spiced
squid with caramelized onion. For those who are having a sweet tooth, they would
be happy to find out the variety selections of sweet temptations from cup cake,
fruit tart, red velvet, cheese cake, crème brulee, rainbow macaroon, English fruitcake
and scones with jam marmalade.
Since
we were quite hungry after a long journey from KL to Penang, we finished our
food really quickly. But don’t worry, the high tea is REFILLABLE, and hence we have
requested for refill and eat till really full.
Hwajing
is committed to always provide the most unique traveling experience with the
smartest budget. Mr. Kenny Cheong indicated, “We are aware that price is a key
decision making factor for our Malaysian travelers especially during the period
of country’s economic recession. Therefore, we have been working towards the
price and innovative content in our travel itinerary that we believe is fair to
our travelers. Hoping that the first ever “Royal High Tea” concept is just
appropriated to the market as it is exceptional and great value added in our
cruise package. The Royal High Tea experience is an exclusive invitation to our
passenger!” The announcement of Hwajing’s Royal High Tea is expected a
limelight to the industry and it is believe that this could be well tapped into
the market and received overwhelming response from the public.
Lastly,
Cheong added, “We hope that our passengers could enjoy the extraordinary cruise
holiday. Besides, we also hope to build a close collaboration with the industry
partners and to go beyond the role of a travel agent in near future.”
The
Royal High Tea experience is available exclusively for Hwajing Tavel &
Tours customers and it is by EXCLUSIVE INVITATION for passengers that sign up to
4 days 3 nights package.
