The guy next to me thought they served the fish with guacamole. Green mush. Did you like anything especially on the menu? Sadly; It was very average! I’m retracting my earlier post raving about the new menus! The chef could not cook Yorkshire puddings, there was no custard with the Sticky Toffee pudding; the Chicken Tikka was ok but no mango chutney… but the fish and chips did come with mushy peas. Not guacamole!!! Whoever thought that goats cheese, mozzarella sticks and Alfredo pasta were part of a traditional British diet has obviously never been to Britain 🤦♀️ 2 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare twangster Posted April 26, 2023 Author #554 Share Posted April 26, 2023 Samba was busier in the early seating tonight, at least 50%. The 2nd seating was busier than night one, more than just me 🤣 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are just such crappy flights out Fresno. It American or United. Alaska, my preferred airline on the coast has stopped doing Fresno to LA direct since covid. I will not fly United. Every time I have tried it has been a gong show so that leaves me with American. Driving just as easy. I can do it in 4 1/2 hours and this way my car is waiting for in the parking lot after debarkation.

pspercy Posted April 26, 2023 #557 Share Posted April 26, 2023 We sailed Radiance in 2014 and I used to get a kick watching the gyro stabilised pool tables. The ocean seemed pretty calm but those things showed how un-calm it really was 🙂 I thought I read somewhere that they'd turned them off now. Anyone know if that's true?

Sticky Toffee pudding is Mark's favourite dessert in the world, just not the RCL version, he can never resist ordering it though, just in case.
