I found myself with octopus and roast beef on the same plate and eating my starter whilst the wife was still queuing. I’d much rather be served food from a menu one course at a time …until I’ve had fourteen heaped courses.. |

We were in Greece a few years back all inclusive. Wine was average, beer undrinkable. Veg often tinned. Half the guests were Russian and they enjoyed it. One woman ate a mountain of prawns which was a sight to behold! |

I was in Egypt a few years back and the Eastern European’s (particularly Russians) piled food on their plates and then just grazed the food on it, yet still went back and goy more plates. Poor manners! |

I like to have small portions of different things from a buffet style dining room.
I can't eat much in one sitting though, so I have a small plate.
As far as I'm concerned someone can have the rest of my quota as long as they eat it all.
In Gran Canaria I was pleased they had brussel sprouts, but disappointed there wasn't any mash or roast potatoes to go with them, so I had rice and chicken.

Strange indeed, but love to get our moneys worth, whatever that may mean. "worth"... Now there's a concept. |

We've never been to an all inclusive resort but we have been to places where the meals are served buffet style. I don't like mixing certain food but at breakfast I'd get several plates with a variety of things on them. Same at dinner. I only took what I knew I could eat though but if I found I didn't like it I left it.
Since COVID the places we've been to were waiter service only but we found we were waiting longer at breakfast because they were rushed off their feet |

"I was at someone's house and the hostess made spaghetti Bolognese while the host drove to the chip shop to get several portions of chips to go under the spaghetti.
"
That might work for me actually, I'll have a think about it |

I can never quite get why people do that especially when staying at a quality all inclusive hotel because, you can always go back for anything else that takes your fancy. You can even make a seven course dinner up by revisiting the buffet, and then it's not gone cold by the time you clear your plate. |

Just the thought is hell for me. So glad that when kids were young we took our caravan to France or Spain for holidays. Cooked great food and went to fabulous restaurants. |

I agree. All inclusive would be my worst nightmare. Did it in the Caribbean once but don’t fancy it anywhere else. |
