Rare jam19872016 Posted October 20, 2023 Author #2026 Share Posted October 20, 2023 That is surprisingly delightful. It's like a chocolate mint flavored vodka. I tried some without the chocolate rim to be sure that wasn't what I was tasting, and indeed that is the vodka with that flavor. Very nice 👌 👍 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare jam19872016 Posted October 20, 2023 Author #2028 Share Posted October 20, 2023 Just two more days remaining on this incredible leg of the journey. I'm going to sleep now thanks all for continuing to read along. I will see you all tomorrow from hopefully calmer seas. 21 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Essiesmom Posted October 20, 2023 #2029 Share Posted October 20, 2023 Slightly different but still matching on Seaside in MDR 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
exlondoner Posted October 21, 2023 #2030 Share Posted October 21, 2023 So, if I get this right, there is no cruet egalitarianism on MSC. The YC cruets are different from the MDR. Just what I suspected. 🙂 Morning all. 1 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare jam19872016 Posted October 21, 2023 Author #2031 Share Posted October 21, 2023 Good morning. Today is our final sea day before our last port of call. Looks like I have to stop procrastinating and do some laundry or else end up doing it on my last day. Beyond that I have nothing on the agenda but then I haven't looked at the daily programme yet. 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm taking inventory of what's left. I think at this point I can hold off until I'm back on Carnival. I am happy now that I over packed. Less happy when I'm lugging it around 😀 4 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare jam19872016 Posted October 21, 2023 Author #2042 Share Posted October 21, 2023 The crab cake was not good at all. Very mushy and had no flavor. Blah. My mom did not care for her starter either. The duck was on me, I should not have ordered it. The pie part was good. I donated the duck my mom did not care for it either. Over cooked. The carbonara was very good. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare jam19872016 Posted October 21, 2023 Author #2048 Share Posted October 21, 2023 I've really enjoyed having a sit down lunch choice each day and a revolving menu each day. Two big plusses for Cunard. Tomorrow I will probably skip it so I can enjoy one final tea time. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As one who doesn’t eat eggs (not an allergy, just massive dislike), I think having two desserts with custard is not very good planning. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really wanted the Kung pao cauliflower but it was the carbonara that almost got axed and that was the best dish of the meal. Only four hours until supper...unless I get drawn to the buffet at tea time again 😋. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
