QUEEN MARY 'Sunday Brunch' - Long Beach, CA - August 18, 2024

NO COPYRIGHT INFRINGMENT INTENDED
Sunday Brunch aboard the 'Queen Mary' in Long Beach, California. Carlos Ramirez, Anthony Reichardt, Abby Del Real, Tanya Smith and Eric Wittman partake in the abundant and delectable array of savory and sweet edibles. Wonderful atmosphere with live jazz music, very attentive staff, and interesting things to see while strolling about the ship after the brunch. Big fun and highly recommended.

The village use to be "ports o call". I didn't know it's being demolished. 😢. Thank you so very much for sharing the buffet. I could never pay that 99.$.

[@user-pq4vj3dj5o]

Ports o call is in San Pedro. The HMS Queen Mary is in Long Beach

[@laurastewart3486]

Sorry, my mistake.

[@jodi3068]

It was called London Town. Get her facts straight or don't post at all.

[@AnthonyReichardt]

That quaint little little ensemble of old styled European looking buildings near the ship originally opened in 1974 and was called, 'Queen's Marketplace'.

[@dakota-rt8kd]

The best brunch in Long Beach, California. My stepfather, used to be the banquet manager for special parties and would hired me during summer time to be the coats, purses, assistant for the guests and we had lots of H.S. Proms, there 🎉❤😊🎉

[@mrxman581]

It looks great. Plan to check it out soon. Thanks. Have always loved the streamlined moderne art deco design of the ship.

[@angelahender281]

Wow! It looks divine. I’m going to fly over for the delicious food. Thanks Anthony for sharing. Enjoy all ! 😀

[@GallivantingwithAnthonyR-ft9lj]

@angelahender281 it was quite tasty. It must be quite a feat to keep that 90 year old ship still floating. The brunch allows access to look about the various decks. Fascinating history indeed.

[@beetrootlady]

Thanks for sharing!

[@vicentvanmole]

Thanks for sharing .if only if it has free parking & price cut at 60$,or 100$ for 2 then it would have more attendance.

[@GallivantingwithAnthonyR-ft9lj]

If the price was reduced by that much, I don't think it would be the kind of brunch destination that it is today. I would compare it to a day at Disneyland versus a day at Knott's Berry Farm. Both are fun but one is definitely a few rungs lower on the ladder of fabulousness.

[@ugotmalenurse]

If they lower the price, not only the quality of the food will suffer, but the place will be inundated by hordes of very hungry people. It will lose its pretty classy status. You want it to be quite expensive but not too expensive.

[@robertdavis5714]

Thanks for sharing experience, $99 sounds about right. KKJZ Radio host a gig there 1st Sunday of every month that I wish to attend someday.

[@sallywilliams5444]

I am surprised there are not more people there. It looks lovely and the food looks delicious.

[@richardlopez4563]

Maybe because its very expensive.

[@barbaramaule1107]

Because it’s $99 per person for breakfast.

[@BIOSJERBIL]

Thanks for that! I'm trying to compare it to the pricey Bacchanal Buffet at Caesar's Palace in Las Vegas. :)

[@GallivantingwithAnthonyR-ft9lj]

I'll bet the Caesar's Palace buffet is primo.

[@PhilHaddad]

You have a voice over sounding voice… you should do audio books reading!

[@GallivantingwithAnthonyR-ft9lj]

What a lovely compliment. Thank you😉!

[@robertsanford406]

I grew up in San Pedro, Ca. Directly over the Vincent Thomas bridge. The Queen Mary brings back many fond childhood memories. Port's O'call village and the Queen Mary were my favorite! Thanks for posting Anthony.

[@mrxman581]

Ports O Call is history. It's being replaced by modern generic looking warehouse structures. The only good thing is that they plan to build an amphitheater at the far end.

[@Foreverisabel]

What I didn’t no they sold food at the queen Mary that’s probably why it’s so empty. Not a lot of people know that they have a Buffett. I love to come down here with my boyfriend and enjoy lunch or even brunch now that I know that they have a Buffay in the queen Mary, I thought it was just like a hotel/museum.

[@rmagn54]

You won’t get much subscribers if you blow through all of your videos like this one.SLOW DOWN!!

[@GallivantingwithAnthonyR-ft9lj]

I guess I just don't think I need a thirty second zoom-in on the the scrambled eggs and each and every dish on the buffet. In about ten minutes I showed what a person can expect at the Queen Mary Sunday Brunch. I certainly do appreciate your comment, though.😉👍

[@prairiedoggy1]

Camera movement is too jerky. I got dizzy watching.

He already said he knows he raced through everything.

[@lexarus79]

My birthday day

[@GallivantingwithAnthonyR-ft9lj]

Happy Belated Birthday!😉

[@ignatiusjk]

Geez slow down. So, what was the cost of the Brunch.

[@GallivantingwithAnthonyR-ft9lj]

You're not the first to say that I somewhat, race through everything. I guess I need to relax. The brunch was $99.00 plus tax and tip. There was an an additional $19.00 if you want champagne.

[@richardlopez4563]

​@@GallivantingwithAnthonyR-ft9ljat that price champagne should be included. Insane price.

[@conrad4667]

I wish you would have shown the view out the windows.

[@GallivantingwithAnthonyR-ft9lj]

The parking lot was the view from one side and Long Beach Marina was seen from the other side (the best view). A ginormous cruise ship taking on passengers was in the water at the rear of the ship and a rusty old Russian submarine was rotting in the water near the front of the ship.

[@ChrisB-ph4mg]

The food is not worth $99.00 and still need to pay for the drink, I dont think I will pay for that price.

[@Bridgeoverthevalley]

No champagne included for that price?

[@AnthonyReichardt]

Brunch - $99.00 w/champagne - add $19.00 plus tax & tip

[@TheKochiu77]

too bad when I look at the choice of food and food presentation in the video is not up to 5 star hotel standard. If they improve this and I am sure they will have a lot of customers.

[@ugotmalenurse]

I live in the San Francisco Bay Area that used to have many very good Sunday brunch and weekend buffets before the pandemic. I miss those lavish Sunday brunch in different hotels up here and I have been waiting for those to return. KZbin vloggers have shown that Southern California has many good buffet restaurants priced at $100 and up per person. My wife and I would love to try those but the region is simply too far away from where we live just to have buffet meals, however sumptuous those will be.

[@ugotmalenurse]

I am not a wealthy person, but my wife and I have had a several New Year’s Day and anniversary Sunday brunch at the Ritz Carlton Hotel in Half Moon Bay. The food and the service are truly 5-Stars! We stopped going there when the price became too pricey for our budget. The last time we went there several years ago, our total bill for 2 with tax and “mandatory tip” came to a little over $500. 😮

[@scottsummers684]

Is this an All Day Meal for the price of one?

[@jessebaldwin2661]

I would sit as far away from the live entertainment as possible. It was a little too loud.

[@richardlopez4563]

Your camera movement makes me dizzy.

[@oncebefore3671]

Oh my gosh - please slow down !

[@adamwalker7338]

We'd "look how beautiful everything is" if you didn't pan through so fast.

[@judydudley1442]

You pan so fast you make me dizzy - can't see what many of he foods are!!

[@LBinsocal]

Maybe a little more narration about what is on the buffet… kinda hit and miss

[@jamesturner7355]

I'm sorry for my comment , but your camera work is just not up to Par, I'm very dizzy.
