It looks stunning. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A lighter option so not super filling but that's probably not a bad thing since I ordered two desserts. Baked cheesecake. Dark chocolate and orange mousse. You need to have the Dulce de Leche ice cream, which is the best ice cream on board. Last time it didn’t appear until I begged them, so you are lucky it is actually on the menu. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks to @Host Hattie for posting a link on the Cunard forum. I've never sailed Cunard before and finding the folks there really friendly and have been helpful in answering all of "dumb" questions. Loving all the pictures of the food and menus. I've come over to read this highly entertaining and informative thread and just to let you know, no question is too 'dumb'. 🙂 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare jam19872016 Posted October 14, 2023 Author #1606 Share Posted October 14, 2023 (edited) Back on board. Ibiza is such a gorgeous city and even in the daytime it was already buzzing and you can tell it has an exciting nightlife. It has a real south beach type feel to it. Valiant lady has just pulled out so I guess last night was her overnight as I believe they stay overnight in this port for a chance to sample the nightlife. I wanted to watch her sail away but I'm out of energy need to rest and recharge for a bit. Edited October 14, 2023 by jam19872016 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare jam19872016 Posted October 14, 2023 Author #1607 Share Posted October 14, 2023 Bought an iced coffee today too much work involved to make my own. While there I noticed they had a blender so I asked if they do Frappuccinos and she said yes. Tomorrow will be a Frappuccino day 😀 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not seen that in FAQ as I've never had the need to ask but some folk DO take/have a bed put in their cabin instead of the Cunard bed eg a 'Profile Bed'. No question is too dumb. 🙂 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare jam19872016 Posted October 14, 2023 Author #1613 Share Posted October 14, 2023 Lemon and ricotta ravioli 626. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare jam19872016 Posted October 14, 2023 Author #1614 Share Posted October 14, 2023 The ravioli was kinda plain. It wasn't bad but I wouldn't order that again. Beetroot salad 632. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare jam19872016 Posted October 14, 2023 Author #1615 Share Posted October 14, 2023 The beetroot salad was good. I've really gotten where I enjoy beets and it paired unexpectedly well with the blackberries. Baked elbow pasta 657 My mom's pheasant. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare jam19872016 Posted October 14, 2023 Author #1616 Share Posted October 14, 2023 Macaroni was good. Small portion though not a great night to only choose one entrée. I tried a bite of my mom's pheasant it was bland and a little dry I wouldn't order it. Glad I can say I've tried it however. For dessert I was going to try the dulce de Leche ice cream but there were two other things I wanted to try. Passion fruit and coconut cheesecake 726 Warm chocolate Brownie pudding. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare jam19872016 Posted October 14, 2023 Author #1618 Share Posted October 14, 2023 Just kidding, that was rice pudding.

It's not as stuffy as I had feared but I do imagine it is more so than HAL. Thanks for reading along and I'm sure you will spot me on the crossing, my mobile bar will give me away 😁 9 minutes ago, Host Hattie said: Someone's telling you lies, that looks more like rice pudding!
