By the time we got there, they were all gone. An officer noticed her dissapointment and he had a plate delivered to our MDR table the next night Very nice. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not like I'm cleaning the place out. Also, my four daily drink vouchers will be used for four bottles of water. So basically I'm handing back potentially $40 per day. I think RC can afford to give me the strawberries 🙄 Well, your first post indicated you wanted to fill a plate up to share. Now it's just 4 strawberries. RC may be able to afford over 4 strawberries for you. But what about the other 3000 guests. Don't they deserve the same 4 strawberries? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since we only cruise in the summer and rarely book far ahead, I'm usually only around the CC forums in the spring/summer then I disappear while those more fortunate spend all year round cruising.

Naturally that went viral...and many had a fun time with the thread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Literally, people would be there at the DL when the appetizers came out and pile the strawberries on their plate. I was only able to get one occasionally. When we started going to the CL that never happened. It was truly weird. GR is the only ship I've ever seen that happen on. What is in someone's brain that makes them take all them and think that's perfectly ok? I guess some of us were taught to take one or two of something and go back later after everyone has had a chance. It's like they haven't eaten in an hour or so lol. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When we come back to get ready for the evening, the plate has been sitting there for a couple of hours. The acid in the strawberry starts melting the chocolate and is truly disgusting. Last cruise on EN, I didn't even touch them. We only got them on one leg of our b2b also so it's very random. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
