I canвЂ™t stress enough how worth it the meal and champagne package is вЂ“ we loved every mouthful and sipped on the second half of our bottle as the show began. We felt like kids in a sweet shop with so much thought going into the food and presentation. With a selection of sweet things perfect for any palette and it was totally delicious. All enjoyed with your champagne and the band playing away on stage, such a lovely atmosphere.Дesert came served in a book.

Perfectly cooked fish, melt in the mouth sticky slow cooked meat and beautifully fresh accompaniments вЂ“ this is some seriously good food guys and well worth the extra $вЂ™s on your ticket. I wonвЂ™t spoil the surprise of what exactly was on our plates as IвЂ™m not sure how often they change their menus but it was all spectacular. There was an ice cold bottle of Mercier champagne waiting for us too which surprised me вЂ“ maybe itвЂ™s because all my experience of вЂChampagneвЂ™ on holiday ( apart from in the south of France) has consisted of sweet sparkling wine pretending to be the good stuffВ but I just wasnвЂ™t expecting real Champagne or incredible food for that matter. There were two choices for main beef and fish ( with a vegetarian option on request IвЂ™m sure as nothing was too much trouble) and a set starter and desert. Everything apart from the glasses and dinnerware is edibleвЂ¦even the menu!!! This is some serious Heston Blumenthal stuff going on here. If you donвЂ™t fancy eating ( although IвЂ™d highly recommend you do) there are stools on the higher rows for those wishing to watch the show and not enjoy the culinary part.

Bathed in blue light with jellyfish shaped lights on the ceilings and walls covered in books, it really gets your mind whirring as to whatвЂ™s in store! We were led to our table just a few rows back from the stage which is set in the round and settled in listening to the live band serenading us throughout dinner. We were booked in for the Dinner & Champagne package at 6pm (show starting at 7pm) so we went straight up to the big top and stepped into the magical world of JOYA.Дress вЂ“ ASOS | Kimono вЂ“ Boohoo | Sandals вЂ“ ASOS | Sunglasses вЂ“ River Island There is a bar at the bottom where you can sit and enjoy a drink before the show in the Mexican sunset and it was quite simply lovely.

As you can imagine I was incredibly excited to see them again especially in a residency performance and with a three course meal with champagne before hand too! I had no idea what to expect when the taxi pulled up to the front of a magnificent mangrove jungle that housed the big top and a series of wooden bridges. I felt as if weвЂ™d stumbled into a mysterious big top and experienced something secret leaving awed and amazed at the sheer skill and beauty of the circus. I travelled down to London to see them perform at The Royal Albert Hall and it was honestly one of the most magical and breath taking pieces of theatre I have ever seen. IвЂ™ve seen Cirque Du Soleil once before when they visited the UK last year with Kooza. While I was there Cirque Du Soleil invited us over to see JOYA* their very first residency outside the US and an evening they deem as a Theatrical & Culinary Intimate ExperienceвЂ¦and that it was. A couple of weeks ago I took a trip to Riviera Maya in Mexico for a week of luxury.
