Rare Jim_Iain Posted August 9, 2022 Author #432 Share Posted August 9, 2022 It was really funny today. We haven't been to Halifax in many many years. Nothing looked familiar until we saw the clock tower. After leaving the Citadel and walking down the hill to the Harbor front did it all come flooding back. Beautiful water front and last time we were here we parked where the ferry terminal now is. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But it's hard to remember to order it because it doesn't show up on the dessert menu. I do too but that one looks like a hot mess. Usually much more visually attractive. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have to agree. I think the waiter picked it up too soon. Our Waiter is Juliarta and he really nice guy. He asked I hope I'm doing a good job because they just promoted me from an Assistant Waiter in Main Dining room and I have so much to learn. We told him don't worry we will help train you ... he laughed. He said he was so nervous serving a Zenith. I told him we were just regular people. He also had a family table of 11 which was challenging for him. While it looked like a hot mess it was delicious. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder if they can go to the Concierge lunch as well. Boy, that would be nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Jim_Iain Posted August 9, 2022 Author #441 Share Posted August 9, 2022 The waterfront has really been transformed. Very vibrant and 95% are eating places. Was surprised couldn’t find typical tourist shops. But had plenty in terminal 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They can't. I've always thought that the reason they have the lunch is to give people who book concierge something in addition to two extra points per night. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Jim_Iain Posted August 9, 2022 Author #447 Share Posted August 9, 2022 Ok. With the comment of the bright color I thought I would hear a comment about his TShirt. He was stopped twice by people saying I love it. It took a second for him to figure out what they were talking about. 7 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
