Crystal Cruises and Chef Nobuyuki Together Again

Crystal Cruises Chef Nobuyuki ‘Nobu’ Matsuhisa cruised aboard Crystal Symphony this week to open his new restaurants, Silk Road and The Sushi Bar.

Nobu joined the ship in Hong Kong to personally oversee the launch, which was commemorated with a traditional sake ceremony attended by Crystal Cruises president Gregg Michel and Crystal chairman Mitsutoshi Nawa.

During the cruise, Nobu-trained chefs showcased some of his most popular specialties at The Sushi Bar, including yellowtail sashimi with jalapeño and tuna tataki with ponzu sauce. Among the more than two dozen menu selections at Silk Road are Nobu-style lobster with truffle-yuzu sauce, saikyo miso black cod and beef with three distinctive sauces.

The restaurants represent an expansion of Nobu’s culinary alliance with Crystal which began in 2003 when his cuisine debuted aboard Crystal Serenity.
