Experience the Enchanting Harmony of Japanese Summer at The Westin Tokyo

The Westin Tokyo, an urban wellness hotel located in Meguro, Tokyo, invites you to immerse yourself in a quintessential Japanese summer experience at its sky bar, "Escalier". Open until August 31, this exclusive summer menu offers a refreshing escape amidst the magical backdrop of Tokyo's skyline.

The highlight of this summer offering is a selection of three unique types of shaved ice made from pure ice crafted from deep natural water from Shinshu, frozen meticulously over a period of 48 hours. Served with homemade fruit sauces created by the hotel's pastry chef, each shaved ice presents an elegant melting sensation on the palate. Indulge in the refreshing flavors of strawberry adorned with mascarpone, luscious peach, and tropical mango, each complemented by specially curated drink pairings for a heightened flavor experience.

Visitors can pair the strawberry shaved ice with champagne, the peach with elderflower liqueur, and the mango with crisp Sauvignon Blanc to amplify the refreshing essence of the summer desserts. Each sip enhances the sweetness and aromatic qualities of the fruit, introducing a luxurious twist to the traditional Japanese shaved ice experience.

Adding to the atmosphere, approximately 200 Edo wind chimes will be displayed throughout the venue, creating a serene ambiance characterized by their melodious sounds that transcend the hustle and bustle of the city. This unique setting, combined with the delicate flavors of the shaved ice and the sparkling finishes of champagne, transports you into a tranquil summer retreat.

In addition to the shaved ice, guests can savor the "Premium Tropical Mango Parfait" which features ripe mango complemented by the zesty notes of lime and orange, layered with smooth fromage blanc cream and topped with a vibrant tropical fruit sauce including mango, passion fruit, and lime. The dish embodies the refreshing essence of summer with a delightful crunch from caramelized almonds.

Another highlight is the "Punch Cocktail: Watermelon Punch", a visually striking bowl cocktail crafted from premium domestic vodka, infused with the refreshing sweetness of watermelon and blueberry notes. Perfect for sharing, this cocktail encapsulates the spirit of summer celebrations.

For those keen on champagne, the "Pommery Free Flow" option offers a selection of the renowned Pommery champagnes, including the classic Brut Royal and exclusive vintages like the 2009 Grand Cru. Each glass offers a luxurious tasting experience amidst the enchanting Tokyo skyline, allowing guests to savor exceptional flavors in a memorable setting.

The sky bar operates daily, with hours extending until midnight on Fridays and Saturdays. Whether you're seeking a peaceful evening escape or a lively summer celebration, Escalier at The Westin Tokyo provides a perfect blend of relaxation, luxury, and seasonal delights.
