Indulge in the Spring-Themed Chinese Afternoon Tea at Shinagawa Prince Hotel
As spring approaches, Shinagawa Prince Hotel is set to enchanting experiences. From March 16 to April 19, 2026, the hotel will host a limited-time event, the "Chinese Afternoon Tea – Cherry Blossom and Strawberry Spring Banquet" at the renowned Chinese restaurant, Daihanten, located on the 4th floor of the Main Tower.
This unique occasion revolves around a new trend in afternoon tea that emphasizes creativity and innovation. A talented team of young, female chefs has crafted a menu inspired by the theme of "Spring Banquet," intertwining traditional Chinese culinary techniques with the delicate essence of cherry blossoms, all of which come together to fashion a truly exceptional tea time.
The combination of fragrant cherry blossoms and sweet strawberries creates a delightful harmony. Guests can enjoy a variety of exquisite dishes including a silky almond tofu drizzled with a subtle cherry sauce, sesame dumplings filled with cherry-flavored bean paste, and chicken flower buns smoked with cherry wood, which lend a sweet and savory depth to the meal. Additionally, dishes like soup dumplings, Tai snapper steamed with cherry leaves, a rich and creamy shark fin and avocado soup, and vibrant jade noodles stir-fried also grace the menu, making this a truly indulgent tea experience exclusive to the hotel.
As part of its commitment to connect Japan with the world, the Shinagawa area is evolving further, especially in light of the grand opening of both "TAKANAWA GATEWAY CITY" and the initiation of "OIMACHI TRACKS" set for March 28. Through this culinary experience that embodies the hotel’s concept of "FUN! Goes On," guests are invited to enjoy a moment of harmony that resonates with their journey towards the future in this blossoming urban landscape of Shinagawa.
