I'm thinking about taking my girlfriend out for dinner this weekend, and I just got this email about a dinner cruise around the Boston harbor that sounds nice. I just don't know if I want to spend the money. Should I?

Details:
---------------
Tired of the dreary weather? Ready to defy the New England climate? Then join us, rain or shine, for our ?City by Moonlight Cruise? taking place on Monday, the 30th of June. We?ll be celebrating the summer with a fully catered, Tasca tapas dinner, our famous sangria to welcome you aboard, and a full cash bar thereafter (you must be 21+ to get on board).

The date is set for Monday, June 30th. The ?Integrity? will be docked at the east pier of the World Trade Center, opposite the Seaport Hotel. This 46 capacity 60ft luxury motor yacht will begin boarding at 6:30 and depart at 7:00, returning to the dock at 9:30. Note this vessel is fully equipped for all conditions with three indoor salons as well as outside decks.

The cruise will start with the outer islands on the harbor, then continue towards Boston Light, sail by the newly built Zakim bridge, the Federal courthouse, and ?Old Ironsides? at the Charlestown naval yard. So, don?t forget your cameras!

The food onboard will include an eight course tapas dinner which will be passed. Tapas include:

Tortilla Espanola (potato and onion omelet)

Roulade of smoked salmon with capers, red onion and cream cheese

Roasted Mediterranean vegetables over basil crostinis

Jamon Serrano over tomato toast points

Chorizo wrapped in puff pastry

Chicken and chorizo skewers

Carpaccio of portabella mushrooms over roasted red pepper tostados

Roast duckling turnovers

For reservations, please call Tasca between 4 and 7pm daily (617) 730-8002. The price of $49 per person includes a welcome aboard sangria cocktail, full 8-course tapas dinner, tax and food server/crew gratuities. (All expenses are included in this price except for the cash bar and bartender?s tips).

Please have your credit card number ready, as full payment will be taken upon reservation request. In case of rain, the yacht does have three fully covered indoor salons, so no refunds for clouds or precipitation.

 
bleh, sounds nice, but 49$ a PERSON? meh, take her out to a nice local place, youll probably save 50% 😉
 
take her to that place. then every time in future you want to impress a girl in the future tell her how you organised that beautifull trip all around boston harbor. maybe they will be impressed. (but don't tell them that you were both totaly drunk afterwards (sangria) and p*cked all over the place caused by the floating boat😉)
 
I'm an idiot. I thought this was next week.

I won't even be in town for this event.

Easy decision. Move along......
 
$49 a person is rather expensive but from the looks of the menu and the setting, it's not so bad. If you do bring her she'll enjoy it and remember it like Anubis said. If you can afford it, go for it! 🙂

EDIT: Haha you're not in town 😛

ROTFLMAO, you just lost a great opportunity to impress girls😉
 
Jamon Serrano over tomato toast points

OMG.. go just for that. Jamon Serrano is so gooood. It's a pity it's impossible to find in the US.

BTW, to me, $49 sound pretty damn cheap for an 8 course meal on a boat. I've paid $49 a person for just sushi before.
