I like the buffets the best because I could eat healthier.

Wish there was a bit more variety. We had a ton of chicken it seemed

Given a large group, I was very pleased with the choices.

sustenance at best, except the breakfasts at Adagio and lunch at Omaha Beach

Having never been to Europe, I was concerned about an unfamiliar cuisine, and whether the meal sizes would be ample enough. I was pleasantly surprised how good the meals were, and meal portions were fine.

I thought the meals were all superb. I especially loved the lunch on Monday at the inn in the countryside.

I am lactose intollerant and wrote this on my form. However, in the restaurant in Munich they did not have a dessert suitable for me.

Excellent and accommodated those of us with special dietary needs.

All quite good!

Breakfast was fabulous everywhere, as was the food service. The food was delicious and offered entrees specific to the areas visited. I felt horrible that we had food restrictions that were not always easy to solve. While great care was taken to satisfy everyone, I was sad that we were among those who had to be accommodated. Thank you. We ate well and loved every bite.

would be nice if meals were served in a room large enough to permit conversation. Much too noisy in small rooms.

5 star everywhere...something for everyone. I tried mostly local fare!

French meals were below average, but the meals in Belgium and Germany were great.

I'm just a picky eater and did not care for much of the food in France. Belgium was okay. Germany was very good

all The meals were wonderful with the exception being The Cafe Omaha. I think we were expecting an American grilled cheese and it was made differently so wasn’t well received but itwasn’t Awful. All the other meals were wonderful

In most cases the food was quite good. The lunch at Omaha was not up to par. My exceptions are more based on my food choices than any problem with service.

plenty of food, very convenient and handy

I thought the meals were wonderful. It was nice to get some local flair with the food and taste some local meals.

Very good in most cases.

Most of the meals were incredible. The only meal that we did not enjoy was the meal at Utah Beach in the smaller cafe. It was basically a grilled cheese sandwich with a tiny amount of ham. Love being able to try local fare and going to restaurants that provided good food!

We ate better on tour than we do at home!

My favorite meal was at the Munich restaurant.

The last night at the hotel has way too much food. Felt bad about leaving so much on my plate! Great food and very diversified.

Meals were all very good, but I didn’t realize that there wasn’t really any choices about the food selection

Great

Nothing could have been better, best meals I have ever had.

The food was fantastic!

Breakfasts were good. Lunches were good - local restaurants that we used had good food. Dinners were not great. The buffets were 90% fish/seafood. When completing our eating requirements before the tour, I mentioned that I did not eat fish/seafood. Therefore, there wasn't much of a selection for me. There should have been other options available.

Mostly good meals, but very heavy and rich!

Meals were ok. Never a huge fan of hotel buffets but the restaurants we went to were mostly great.

To much food

I understand the geographical location warrants Asian food. However, options for dinners should have been made or us made aware prior to the tour that most Asian cuisine would be offered and very limited options for westerners. We had specified on the meal question that we did not eat seafood. 90% of all dinners were seafood options leaving a very limited selection for us. Breakfasts and lunches were good, though.

We lacked for nothing

Meals were excellent except for dinners at H4 Hotel Munchen Messe. We expected better for this tour.

The meals were all excellent.

Nothing special. The best dinner was at the Hyatt in Richmond. The box lunches from 'Porkbellies" (not sure if that's right name) were pretty tiresome after the first or second one. I spent many years in the military and can eat very fast, for some of our elderly passengers eating quickly on the bus was a challenge.

Too many breakfasts of scrambled eggs

too much good food~!

While I understand the convenience of box lunches they are difficult to eat in a bus when there is no tray. Would have been nice to have choices of meat. If box lunches are planned, why not poll the group the day before then send in the order for X number of ham, Y number of turkey? The best box lunch was when we were able to eat the lunch while stopped at a combined rest stop & picnic area. The worst was the day (I believe this was the last box lunch?) we had to eat the lunches in a very short time on the bus. The "served" restaurants were great. The time for lunch and the underground rr tour at the Dobbins House should have been coordinated better. I am sure I was not the only one that realized the tour was about to start when I was just finishing my lunch. The BBQ place and the "biker bar", both of which were substitutes for the normal stops, were bad and should not be used again.

Food was okay, not spectacular, but good. Too many box lunches and PLEASE, let's not eat on a moving bus. Some of us get car sick even without trying to juggle boxes with no tray tables. Best box lunch situation was the picnic stop. HAVE CHOICES for box lunches! Let people choose from turkey or ham, not just give them something. (I heard you have had bad luck with this, but we have been on a tour where we chose ahead several times in advance of stops and there was no trouble. You get what you pick based on description---how simple is that?) Worst thing was the biker bar---took 2 hours! Another bad situation was the barbecue dinner. The waitress never got around for drink orders and they knew we were coming with tickets for wine and beer. A bit too many buffets for my liking. Really enjoyed the dinner at Ebbett's Grill as it was plated service.

A bit more variety at breakfast and lunch would have been nice. Not more selection, just a bit of a change daily.

This was a great improvement over past tours. It offered fixed menus and some buffet choices. Much quicker than ordering off a menu or giving a choice. The restaurants were all ready for us and the service was quick and efficient.The food at A. Roma was truly exceptional.

Good overall with only one or two exceptions.

I was in pasta heaven! If anything, there was too much good food. Thank goodness we did as much walking as we did, so I didn't put on any weight during the trip. I thought that the restaurants selected for lunch and dinner were outstanding. Even the meals at the hotel were great.

Farm meals were the absolute best. The meals in downtown Rome, we less so.

Excellent

I told Robert on our second day in Bastogne that I had a strong craving for a hamburger, after several days of the local fare in France and Belgium. He told me that often happened and that was why he had scheduled hamburgers and fries for dinner that evening. What a good read on his part!

No complaints at all about the food. Seafood meals were the best of the lunches/dinners. Omaha Beach lunch cheese sandwich was OK. Other meals were better.

I never had a bad or "subpar" meal the entire length of the tour.

I ate more in those eleven days than I normally eat in a month. All food was amazing!

Meals were really good! Nice to have a drink included. Meals at the rest stop cafeterias were a bit tricky to navigate but part of the adventure!

The lunches at the local restraunts were a real treat!!! Fabulous!

The meals were outstanding at all of the restaurants we went to - food was great, service was excellent and all of this was done efficiently considering the size of our group.

Dinners generally very good. Lunch typically good as well. Breakfast was pretty basic.

too good! Now I have to go on a diet!!

The Dover restaurant seemed utterly unprepared for us, notwithstanding they had virtually no other diners when we arrived. The lunch stop in Portsmouth was a stand-out, as was the lunch stop on Utah Beach day. Except for Dover lunch, all our meals were tasty and inviting.

I really loved eating at the local establishments around the places we visited. I enjoyed where we had the Croque Monsieur sandwich. I can't stop thinking about the cheese sauce. Beef Stew was delish. Enjoyed visiting the Farm restaurant.

In general food was very good. Got tired of buffet at night in Munich. Buffet in Munich was marginal.

Well, I gained 5lbs if that says anything. The meals were excellent every where we went. A lot of foods I haven't had since my long ago tour of duty in Germany.

Did not expect such awesome meals. Great examples of local cuisine.

Great and abundant food!

A little too much pork but that's an important staple in poland so I enjoyed eating what that country eats.

First class

Only complaint would be that the portion sizes are too HUGE!

too much food for a female learned to order smaller portions or shared with daughter

the meals in town were some of the best I ever had. hotel average.

Fabulous food, portions more than we could eat. We really appreciated the ability to have a glass of beer or wine at lunch and dinner!

the food was different so I had a bit of hard time getting used to other foods. I'm a meat and taters kind of guy.

The meals all seemed pretty much the same standard fare.

Some portions were way to much. Perhaps adj price and allow free time in cities so eating in local locations would be an enhansment.

Excellent.

All were top, especially the lunches.

Wonderful food, wish we had some more traditional Russian food, but the ability to order from the menu was good, the food was so much better then it was in the 90's when I was last in Russia

All breakfasts excellent. Lunches and dinners mostly average. Love included soft drinks, one alcoholic beverage and water on bus. Very nice touch

Very good. Wished we had had some dinners out in St. Petersburg.

The meals were nice, but maybe try and add something different like an Italian meal or good old hamburger for lunch once or twice. The usual chicken or fish was getting old by day 7.

This is my 3rd trip with you all and, after well-over 100 meals (B-L-D) provided I have not had a single bad one yet. Good mixture of local items and standard fare/comfort foods. I gained a few pounds again even with all the walking!

Great food, especially the more local places where we could have traditional Russia style food.

The meals were generally very good. This only issue was the wait times for some.

Food was great. One consideration might be to have box lunches on 2-3 of the days in order to avoid 2+ hour lunches every day.

Too much food. I suggest that you discontinue the elaborate lunches. They were very time consuming, once taking all of two hours. Several of the restaurants had difficulty accommodating our large group in an efficient manner. At times, there was more than a 30 minute delay between courses.Every fellow traveler that I spoke with agreed. Please consider preparing a simple box luch - a sandwich and snack or perhaps give the tour members 45 minute to grab a snack at a local place.The cost is not a factor but the length of time, delays and overload of food made dining the least enjoyable part of the tour.

Meals were very good but I would prefer a smaller and shorter lunch period and more time to tour.

Great variation in menus. I would have liked to eat in more locations, but the food was great.

The meals in Belgium were enough to feed an army. A little bit too much

very good!! would like a couple of options each meal, but I understand the difficulty of this

I enjoyed the quality of the meals. I did not enjoy the 2 hours for lunch. I would sacrifice quality for more time on the ground. If I wanted gourmet food I would book a tour of gourmet food locations. With "Band" I expected to maximize the time "on the ground" spent in a museum, cemetery, memorial, or battle position. Several co-travelers complained about the size of the meals, they were a fine size to me. My objection is to the daily long lunch time and losing exploration time.

We spent too much time and too much money on lunches. I was there to see WWI and tour. We spent 2+ hours sometimes on 3 course lunches ... all we needed was a light lunch .. a box lunch on the bus would have been just fine. I found myself wasting a lot of food because we ate too much.

meals were very good and gave us a sampling of local cuisine. I would have liked to have a couple dinners on the way back to the hotel rather than having most meals at the hotels.

Meals were very good and the variety was fantastic. Only had one main dish which I was not fond of.

On the warm days a heavy noon meal was a little too much.

Meals were average

I ate too much, now I have to work it off. It was all fabulous and you couldn't have planned any better meals. I wouldn't change a thing.

I think I may have said this last year as well, but it would be better to have more options for each meal. In addition, if someone wants to upgrade their meal at an additional cost, it should be acceptable without any question.

Would have liked more variety of restaurants for dinner.

Each restaurant was great! I liked the options and the bit of culture in them!

Great variety and quality. Especially liked the meal at Omaha beach hotel.

Ate way too much but did not gain weight.

a little too much chicken for me. would have liked a little more seafood options but understand not everybody enjoys that

Great food and a LOT of it!

All meals were very good. The only negative would be that the pork chop on the final night was a little tough. Service was great.

I would rate the meals even better than last tour. The meals were outstanding!! The selection and choices could not have been better. Procom has set a very high standard for meals on the tours that may be very hard to match by other tour groups.

hotel food was good. bus boxed lunches were a bit uncomfortable to eat without a fold down try. restaurant meals excellent.

never ate so well. I am a very plain and picky eater and was a little worried about the food before the trip but everything was perfect. Cannot believe how good everything was at each meal
