Umi Sushi is the fourth à la carte restaurant and the 17th dining venue onboard Marella Voyager. It offers a menu inspired by Japanese cuisine, featuring freshly prepared ramen, customisable sushi boxes and Mochi Ice Cream bowls.
The pre-bookable bento dining experience is priced at £18.95 and includes a ramen dish, two Otsumami-style snack bites, two selections from sushi, sashimi, or poke, and a dessert. Each meal also comes with a trio of bites: edamame, seaweed crackers and Asian pickles.
Customers can choose from a selection of comforting, Japanese-style ramen dishes, with various options including Char Siu Pork Fillet, Golden Panko Chicken or Miso Tofu.
To accompany the meal, they can select from a variety of ‘Otsumami’, Japanese small plates designed for sharing, such as Katsu Chicken Wings, Pork Gyoza, Crab Shumai and Steamed Bao Buns.
Then customers can choose from a wide variety of freshly prepared sashimi, poke, and sushi dishes made at the counter.
Options include the Mr Chang, featuring prawn tempura, avocado, cucumber, spicy mayonnaise and crispy crumb; the Legend with crab, roasted red pepper, Japanese mayonnaise and smoked caviar; East “Meats” West with bacon, beef sirloin and cheese wrapped in potato strings.
Also available are Teriyaki with chicken, avocado and teriyaki sauce; Teriyaki Tofu with carrot, sweet pepper and cucumber; Tuna Poke with cucumber, radish and spicy mayo; and Salmon Sashimi, served as thinly sliced salmon with traditional condiments.
To finish the meal, dessert options include a delicious Chocolate and Miso Torte served with toasted sesame cream, a refreshing Strawberry and Lime Leaf Cheesecake and Mochi Ice Cream available in strawberry, chocolate, or vanilla flavours.
Luke Murphy, Senior Product Development Manager at Marella Cruises, said: “We wanted to bring something fresh and exciting for our customers onboard Marella Voyager, and Japanese cuisine offers the perfect balance of flavour, artistry and variety.
From soul-warming ramen and vibrant poke bowls, Umi Sushi delivers a dining experience that’s both adventurous and comforting. This fourth a la carte restaurant is ideal for customers looking to explore new tastes while enjoying the unrivalled service from our crew and a relaxed atmosphere onboard the ship.”
The 34-seated capacity bookable a la carte restaurant, Umi Sushi, will be open from 18:30 – 21:00 every day and will provide the unrivalled service onboard by the crew, which Marella Cruises prides itself on.
This new a la carte restaurant will join the other three restaurants onboard the ocean cruise line brand, Silver Fork, Kora La and Surf & Turf, which are also available across the whole fleet of Marella Cruises’ ships.
