That breakfast looked yummy!! There was one night we went to the MDR for dinner and it took 1.5 hours. There was a big gap between the dinner and dessert that took forever!!
Between the military and a polite upbringing, no, hats should not be worn in the MDR, or anywhere for dinner as a civilian. In the military, you never wear your cover indoors. Gentleman remove their hats for dinner...it's honestly kind of sad that good manners like this are falling by the wayside.
I hear what you are saying, but times are changing for sure. I'm on vacation and eating. If I have jacked up hair from taking a quick nap, I don't go to the MDR? I mean caps/hats are considered fashion now. Women/men wear hats to church and other elegant functions regularly. Now....to be honest....I take my hat off when I hear the National Anthem or pray over my food as a sign of respect to my country and God. I personally don't have a problem with someone wearing a hat/cap to eat. I try to mind my own business at my table. What someone does at another table really doesn't affect me. Our family does not go to "formal" night due to we don't like to "dress up". I dress up at work every day. When I'm on vacation I want to be comfortable and not put on a show for others. Thank you for the input and cordial discussion.
@@luvysfatlife You do you. It certainly won't matter to me if someone is wearing a hat, unless it's one of my sons at my own table. I guess it's a combination of being a veteran and having a family that felt manners, even if they seemed silly to some, were important. I wear my hair short too. If I have bed head, I throw some water on it because I wouldn't want to be in public looking a mess anyway. It's not putting on a show for others, it's just my own comfort level. I wear scrubs every day for work and really enjoy dressing up for once so we always do elegant night. I guess I'm an old fashioned southern lady at heart.
Hello Cynthia, I grew up with hats are not allowed at the table. I see your point of view. On the other hand, times have changed and caps or hats are part of fashion now. To me you are at your table and not offending anyone, so why would it really matter? I do see your point of view and it is in the dress code.
True. My opinion comes from growing up in a military family and being ex-military myself. My stepfather engraved in us that if you wore hats indoors you were in serious trouble. So I guess it's hard to teach an old dog new tricks.
@@luvysfatlife It matters because it sets the tone for the experience. I saw another vid recently that commented that someone wore pajama pants and slippers to the dining room. Is that really what we want in cruising? No wonder people say Carnival is "Walmart of the Seas" and that's sad because it really can be a great experience. I kind of like for it to be a little classy and an escape from the every day. People tend to behave better when held to manners and dress codes too. That's why so many companies require "business casual"...it sets the tone. I'm almost done with Carnival cruises, tbh. Currently riding the free casino deals, but when those dry up, it's not the experience it used to be and no longer worth the full fare price.

Oh wow! We never tried the MDR! Thanks for the tip.
Love Sea Day Brunch. I love the Eggs Benedict , Skillet Cake, Parfait and Banana Cream Pie. Actually I love most of the items on the menu. 😂😂😂
Thanks for sharing!! We normally get the voyage burger, but Michelle's stomach was upset. Thank you for watching!
Is there a separate cost for the seaday brunch?

Who cares about hats in the dining room… wear what you want.
Never tried that cake… looked good. Awesome J cut 😂
I’ll show you how to include a j-hook cut
Hats should not be worn indoors and especially not to a dining room. Ex-military here and we never wore our covers indoors.

A gentleman should not wear their hat at the dining table. My daddy taught me that and the military reinforced it.
👍!
Team no hat
