Crew food varies from ship to ship and cruiseline to cruiseline. Yes this is standard fare for crew. Officers generally do have an officer mess but they are also allowed to eat in the guest buffet so they mostly do that (performers and other frontfacing jobs ie staff are also allowed to eat there). yes standard fare is rice, stewn, beans, salad, pasta, etc. most of the crew is asian so there is a lot of rice!

This guy is hyping it up like it’s for all crew members. All of the perks he displays are for “entertainment class” and not the majority of workers.

Crew members for the crew members.

Even the buffet on the employee level is fabulous. They do put that spirit of presentation on everything. That is probably because you can’t have staff practicing what to do in a regular Buffay and then have a different standard for staff. It would be very confusing for kitchen stuff.

When the cost of the food is mostly procurement and logistics, spending that little bit of extra on making it really good makes a lot of sense, because happy crew members do better work.

I've been on a cruise. Most of the crew wasn't from the U.S. Not that it mattered. I wouldn't have minded crew food. The lines above deck were always long.

I worked at a Westin in the Caribbean and the staff food was whatever was going bad in the fridge, cooked up into a goop and served. Classy place!

I still find it hard to believe just how much these ships can hold… between all the food for all the guests and workers, and even just down to the amount of fresh water these ships can hold. Imagine enough water to VERY comfortably suit thousands of people. Do they use the machines that convert salt water to fresh water, or is it one massive holding tank?! Anyone have the answer?

Cruise ships have an obscenely high food poisoning rate because of the temperatures/food served in these buffet-style arrangements, left out for long periods, inadequate waste disposal and conditions in the kitchens. Huge amounts of sugar and salt are used to try and offset the risk of the food spoiling. You might think this looks pretty but scratch beneath the surface... Also all of that fruit looks underripe.

Damn looks like customers have nicer spreads

yall eat like kings

But does the crew's crew have a crew to cook for them?

What happens to the leftovers? Do they reuse them for later/next food service? Or do they throw it away?
