P&O Arvia Buffet - FULL TOUR & The Most DISAPPOINTING Dinner We've Had On The Ship
Key Moments
Editorial Summary
The creators provide a comprehensive tour of the Horizon Buffet on the P&O Arvia, examining the breakfast, lunch, and dinner service options. During the breakfast segment, they detail a wide variety of hot and cold items, including eggs, meats, cereals, and a dedicated dietary counter for gluten-free and non-dairy needs. The lunch portion covers a selection of salads, sandwiches, a carvery station, and international dishes like pork adobo and chicken shawarma. For dinner, the tour highlights a rotating selection of meats, such as roast beef and lamb, alongside various sides and desserts. While the creators praise the variety and specific items like the chicken shawarma and Moroccan lamb pies, they express significant disappointment with the dinner service. They specifically critique the lack of seasoning in the Cornish pasties and the blandness of the beef. Ultimately, the creators conclude that while the buffet offers many choices, the quality of the food in this specific venue does not represent the high standard of dining found in other restaurants throughout the ship.

Creator's Key Takeaways
the buffet is our least favourite place to eat and in general is quite a poor buffet both in selection and quality
it's a pretty standard breakfast buffet we have had these on other piano ships it's been exactly the same
the chicken's nice enough there's plenty anything you haven't really got it skimped on the chicken so it's nice and tender
the buffet on board the RV now don't let that represent the rest of the food on the ship because that food has been absolutely amazing
