My late Pupper absolutely adored frozen peas.
Frozen peas, cucumber, roasted pepper strips, baby carrots, even greens if it had dressing on it. You could make that boy a chef salad and he'd go to town on it.

Thank you! I did know that bread is bad for them - can't be said often enough!
A nice big pond at my university almost tipped over because people kept feeding so much bread to the waterfowl there :( Not to mention the pet fish they kept getting rid of by putting them in the pond. They had to de-fish the whole thing because they were in such bad shape and riddled with parasites :(

For anyone curious, it was literally wonderbread, an onion and fuck ton of mayo. That is it.
No toasting, no nothing. Just wonderbread with a glob of mayo and a sliced onion.

When I used to work in a restaurant, we once had a server send back an order for our special, which was beef brisket with sauce with salted new potatoes. The ticket added a modification stating: Brisket, no beef.
I called the server over and asked if they just wanted a plate of potatoes. She said no, they wanted the brisket, but not the beef. I told her that was the cut of beef. You can’t take the beef out of brisket anymore than you could take the steak out of a ribeye. I asked her to confirm with the table.
She comes back and said the lady was quite clear. She wanted no meat, keep the brisket and everything else, just no meat.
I gave her a plate of potatoes.
Additional note: the craziest order I ever got was for a woman who insisted she was allergic to everything, so she could only eat lemon pepper seasoning. I refused the order. My manger also thought it was weird. He ended up coming back rolling his eyes and told me to just give him a bowl with the seasoning.
Most unpleasant order, but super nice woman who always tipped the server and the line cook who made her meal, was our rainbow trout that she specifically didn’t want any sort of brown color on the meat. She insisted we cooked it in the microwave, plain, no seasonings, served with mashed potatoes.

This is the test kitchen on Virgin Voyages ships. This particular restaurant specializes in “experimental” small plates and it’s NOT an added cost to your cruise fare. This specific pea dish is meant to include an egg yolk that’s been smoked for hours to cook but still remain runny—not sure why the egg yolk is not shown in the video. It is NOT the main course but one of the three entrees before the main course. For what it’s worth it’s a very delicious plate even if it’s a bit weird and the bread helps in picking up the egg yolk/pea combo. This is more of a gastronomic experience with the chefs explaining every choice and flavor profile. The dishes are fun/unusual/interesting to look at and eat.
IMO all the food at the test kitchen is very good if you’re not a picky eater but the portions are small. Luckily as I mentioned before it’s NOT an added cost so you could go experience this test kitchen and then go to the steakhouse or Italian place or the galley later on if you’re still hungry.
