Car No. 1 is a special car offering beverage services, and during afternoon runs, it also features a special dessert service. Passengers can enjoy an afternoon tea set specially designed by Chef Hashimoto Michirou from Highland Resort Hotels & Spa Fuji-Q, including four items: seasonal fruit desserts, mango-flavored macarons, Mt. Fuji egg specialty pudding, and a chef’s special fruit-style salad—perfect for savoring an elegant journey on the train. Those wishing to ride must make a reservation in advance. Cancellations within 10 days will incur a handling fee, the amount of which depends on how close the departure date is.
