  1. Unfortunately our Chips were kettle style and very well accompanied the Club Sandwich we had in PG.. we even asked for more...
  2. We enjoy Concierge Lounge when you don't want to deal with the Masses at the other locations. At different times of the day there are different levels of snacks available. A pleasure to have a quieter Tea Time in the Concierge Lounge. We were happy with the the limited choices that satisfied us at the time. But still enjoyed the Famous Scones, Preserves and Clotted Cream. Concierge Lounge is not visible to the outside but more imitate and quieter location with good WiFi. Our Concierge Henrietta was very helpful and knowledgeable with all our requires and troubleshooting. So there is other personal opinions out there I personally may not agree with but to each is own.
  3. Cunard, we prefer QM2, is an experience we always look forward to Book Princess Grill. Different style sailing not cruising. Wonderful when the clock passes 6PM on board especially on Gala Nights.
  4. Got the Ice Cream Got the Syrup Got the Malted Powder Of Course the Milk Anytime, all year round...
  5. Arnold Palmer - Half Lemonade/Half Ice Tea equal portions. Never tried it till several years ago and really enjoy it with certain foods.
  6. If the meat is lightly packed as it should, making it lighter, we enjoy Caramelized Vidalia Onions. Maybe if needed, like use of Maldon Sea Salt.
  7. As I said before, under certain conditions and civilizatied, everyone could enjoy the same facilities and pleasure. Everyone needs to be considerate to each. Not think the ship is theirs alone.
  8. New to me... Always saw passengers making it easy with mobile convenience to dock side
  9. Definitely Agree... We did three days on board QM2. What a beautiful site each morning seeing Quebec out our window and site each evening out our cabin on the Balcony.
  10. Not to worry, at that time, Plenty of Space, All spaces desirable, it worked. Plenty of space with enough chairs. Never heard anyone complaining about this. All were happy and satisfied. On the QM2 no problem on Sun Deck....
  11. WOW...Didn't think this practice still exists.... Long time since heard last time someone mentioning this. I there was a lot of trouble on the Rotterdam in the early 80's. People would leave their items on the chairs and MIA. But the Deck Staff after a certain amount of time would roll the personal items up in a towel and take it back to there deck. Passengers would question the staff where is their items are and they were presented with them back. Making the space available. I would see items on chairs as early as 7-730 during my early walk. The best system we enjoyed was on the QE2. You would go to the Sun Deck, select a chair to your liking and it would be tagged with you name for the entire time sailing. You even had the Deck Staff watch you to see that you would not get too burnt maybe falling asleep. Also they would offer a beverage like water to hydrate. Yes, there was a minor on board charge but it did work and very well accepted. The over all thought to this subject is the consideration to one and another being on vacation and sharing the ship with due politeness. I know we see the domaining of passengers on Shore Excursions, Tour Buses, Clubs/Bar/Discos/Showrooms. Holding seats for others to come with those entering and looking for space presently. Even the staff makes announcements before a show to not hold seats for those not there yet out of consideration.
  12. Zimne Nogi Polish Jellied Pigs Feet Is the Polish version of the dish. Alway looks like Head Cheese in a cube.
  13. Being a retired EMT for 24 years and CPR certified, always try to re-cerify. You never know when it can come in handle. Also learn Choke Techique along with CPR. I saved someone off duty in a restaurant choking from a orange slice from a Whiskey Sour. It was close but made it and so rewarding. Can't describe saving a life.
  14. Ditto with our placement too..... Did our best in Buffet....
  15. Being a past health professional we do use a higher level mask KN 95..
  16. No you are a Cruise Critic looking for a cruise your way. Since I am the chief cook and bottle washer, my time to SHINE!
  17. Unfortunately we look forward being served tableside on vacations and holidays
  18. We still appropriately worn the mask in locations we knew was wise. Your point has merit, but 14 days we did not catch anything and even home safe and sound. Some thought to safety is still necessary.
  19. We sailed on the QM2 last September/October to NE/Canada 14 days and only lost one Port called Sidney since the Hurricane hit the location several days before we would arrival. That day was turned into a Day at Sea with a day loaded with activities. No other disturbances altered the sailing and continued with the rest of the Ports of Call we expected.
