    Excellent photos and thorough food reviews. I like that you keep the menu on screen long enough for me to pause it and really study the offerings. The fish dishes and many of the desserts were the superstars.

    My husband and I will be on QM2 in November and we were on the world cruise on her in 2020 when it was curtailed in Perth, but we have very fond memories of the ship and especially the food! These videos are very well produced and what you see is what you get with Cunard……..excellent quality and service always! Looking forward to our next cruise on this lovely ship.

    For the record "cheesecake fool" is not cheesecake. Fool is a custard-based desert, though oftentimes whipped cream. Cheesecake fool is usually a blend of cheesecake and fool that results in a texture something between cheesecake and a custard/whipped cream.

I'd be sitting there so impatiently waiting - and I'd feel very shortchanged watching mine getting eaten ...especially when Joanna likes it and goes in for a second (or third!) mouthful 😂

    You really highlight the broader selection of Vegitarian/Vegan options. The British, and European cruise lines seem to have more of these options? I’m not veg I myself but have friends and family with various food needs. Thanks for another great video!

    Thanks for the video.
    Cunard's ads often show men in tuxedos. What did you notice with regard to dress code on your sailing, especially for dinner?

    • @TravelTouristVideos
      @TravelTouristVideos  Год назад +2

      During formal nights there were probably a quarter of the men wearing tuxedos, but the rest wore jacket with ties and slacks. For non-formal nights, there were probably 2/3's wearing jacket, ties & slacks, the others were wearing just a collared shirt & pants. It definitely wasn't as strict/formal as we expected. Thanks for the question!

      Not sure what machine they used to make them but they were pretty good. We didn't find out they were complimentary until midway into the voyage, but ordered them daily after that.

    I've never been nor am I likely to ever go on a cruise...but I am one who believes good food is one of life's great rewards and I understand food is an important element of cruising, so I watch and enjoy these vids. My question is this: In one sitting she will sample numerous entrees and desserts, but this is a la carte, not buffet service. Again, I know nothing about cruise ship dining rules or etiquette, (if any even exists) but is it normal or acceptable to have more than one entree, dessert and/or whatever, in one sitting? Eee gads, maybe I should go on a cruise!

    The plural of shrimp is SHRIMP. No s on the end.

    • @mdavid2822
      @mdavid2822 Год назад +4

      You're incorrect as both are acceptable. So sayeth Merriam-Webster.
      shrimp noun
      \ ˈshrimp , especially Southern ˈsrimp \
      plural shrimp or shrimps
      P.S. It is worth noting that British English uses "shrimps" rather frequently (and may be the preferred plural form). In American English the word "shrimps" is almost never used. Since Cunard is a British line, it would make sense that their menus reflect British English.
