Hey there or welcome to or welcome back to no pants profits my name is Richard and this is Kristen and we are here on the celebrity Summit now I actually worked on this ship like 13 years ago I think it’s crazy but they actually took an extra Galley space and they did you

Won’t know this remember reflection that we were on so that ship is considered solstice class so they took this ship and they solstici vised it they they they they solstici sized it and brought it into a kind of the solstice class thing and when they solstici vised it

They took an extra space an extra it looks like a kitchen space uh and they turned it into Tusc and Grill which is an Italian restaurant that they put on the uh Solstice class ships and you’ll see we’ve got it right here uh literally K how many signs were there telling us

How to get here a million a million signs nobody can find this place but um unlike lapati Chef which we did last night it does have a menu that you can choose from and you can have multiple appetizers and everything like oh there’s the Gobo yeah it says Tusk and

Grow I mean literally I’m 100% sure that this was uh this was Galley or moing space or something before and what’s amazing is like when you enter this on the solsa class ships they have a whole wine tunnel you enter through and everything like that and here they’ve

Got four barrels so come along come along with us this is probably my 70th time at Tusk and Grill the the concept and it’s Kirsten’s first time a tus and Grill I did really well in the casino and I said I don’t like the menu in the

Dining room tonight we’ll be in the dining room tomorrow night but uh tonight we go to Tuscany so we’ll see how it is this was not a galley space it was actually the Normandy restaurant which is hysterical because uh the Normandy restaurant was on the Titanic I believe so they had all

These uh restaurants that were inspired by a restaurant on the tit anic um on this ship when it came out in uh 2001 first taking a look at menu sucessful you said there was a problem with your menu it’s a little flaccid I mean we were at the pharmacy

Earlier you could have solved that problem remember that Viagra was originally a heart drug and do you know about that you don’t know about that I’ve heard of that right viag was originally a heart medication and people kept having the side effects of getting boners regularly so they reported it

During the study and uh if you need to open your heart vessels or you need a strong pee pee Viagra two for one is your choice but you have to take Viagra immediately before having intercourse seist is ready when you are and this review is brought to you

Courtesy of no so what do you think of the menu so far Christ it’s uh it’s good it’s got lots of Italian things you know I’m probably going to get the Bara well I like bar cheese yeah we try a lot of different things like that we’re going

To have the guy explain he’s going to cut some uh fresh basil ooh they grow that on Deck 11 uh actually before yeah we have but now we are prefer to rade rade rade genuine fresh kusadasi basil genuine fake kusadasi basil there we go exactly and this is our fres uh

Olive oil olive oil perfect oh I can smell the bit absolutely and is it to open in the P more appeti for you nice basle so we had our bread kren what do you think of your bread and your basil it’s good what do you think of your wine

You got a wine it’s good it’s good and now we have an anti pasta board I will tell you it says that there’s a peino and a bunch of cheeses and Pudo there kren you see any Pudo there I do not I see a bunch of salami though I

Know can I tell you a dirty secret you will love what I’m about to tell you this is good tell me this to the internet right now this is something I’ve never told before okay to the Internet so Tusk and grow I used to work for a celebrity about 13 years ago and

You see these nice sliced meats here in the back they have a meat slicer that they actually they get in the salami and stuff like that and just for here like the stuff that comes in Ocean View they get it pre- sliced the stuff for here

They actually slice in the back so which should be pretty fleshly sliced here’s what you might not know shoves some salami into mouth that slicer is almost impossible to clean so are you familiar that the cruise ships get inspected by United States Public Health sounds legit for nine

Years this is not a joke oh no not here seven years for seven years when I worked on chips every United States Port whose cabin would the salami slicer be in what the salami slicer would go to my cabin before we would get to a Us Port

To hide it so that no one’s looking in the it person’s cabin for the salami slicer the salami slicer was hidden in my cabin because it’s impossible to clean along with I don’t know if I’ve seen it on this ship the fresh squeeze orange juice machine that would go in my cabin

Too now I had an agreement I would open up the cabin I actually had a key 2 3 in the morning the night when we get to Miami and they just throw in there even look you you see that cloth there you see this can you pick that up real quick I just

Want to show people I’m sorry to like cuz yours is easier to move than mine so you see this cloth right here it’s impossible to clean to sanitary standards without dissolving it so where do you think those wound up you’re room but every week I would get a 36 pack of

Beer delivered to my cabin because I held the beat slicer and I held you could not walk in and out of my cabin before us port cuz it was filled with everything from this restaurant plus an orange juice machine just don’t get drunk and stick your dingling in it my

Dingling my dingling yes K’s not very happy Blah Blah’s not very happy that there’s no piano bar on this ship fishy but uh we’re having our and we got we got every appetizer so we’re going to give you thoughts on every appetizer here I did not get every slice of steak

And stuff like that but I did get every appetizer and I got the fillet and the other stuff so I’ll show it to you as it comes but yes this is supposed to have Pudo I’m going eat all the blue I found it that is pido I don’t remember you can have all

Blue cheese I don’t like blue cheese we’re good we Hadar I found P I want all the stinky blue cheese car takes s eating feet oh look speaking of appetizers all right we’ve got Calamar pork Bell pork belly oh it’s like big piece of bacon meatball meatballs and a crab cake doop

Doopop which one is this this is calamari calamari crab cake meatballs and that is that is the thickest piece of bacon you’d done ever seen I know it’s pork belly but it’s bacon we’re just going to go with bacon C we might as well keep this rolling let’s start with the meatballs

Meatballs meatballs meatballs hold on I take a picture of everything because it’s ridiculous here ch’s like yes we got to me the balls there we go okay meatballs first of all go ahead first you just have to put the whole ball in your mouth what if it doesn’t fit very

Good nice to like porn and be a lot of meat in that meatball it’s nice and uh nice and moist and everything you moist moist moist all right next up calamari you already tried the calamari didn’t you and it is a it is a ring calar I don’t see any actual octopus

There calar good about all right it’s like a fried like a fried eraser like a fried eraser I’m going to bring you everything you need it’s a little rubbery is that we trying to say eraser all right the crab cake in my opinion the last time I was here it

Was the weakest of the appetizers but we shall try It I’m holding the camera with my left hand and my right hand is not my dominant hand thoughts on the crab P it’s crabby not very chunky nice and uh it’s it’s like cooked golden brown but not too much right after dinner all right so next up we’ve got some

Bacon this is not bacon this is pork belly kren I will pass you the pork belly no no that’s all you what please try it oh fine fine fine fine fine mostly that’s good there that’s good you can just take the tiniest bite tiniest bite we’re not used to this this is very

Humbling experience yeah it’s good kind of like bacon but kind of not so if we wanted to rank them where would you rank them these four oh jeez um I would say meatball one agre crab cake too yeah crab cake or calamari and I I don’t actually I’m not very

Impressed with this but I’m also not very impressed with the calamari but meatball you called the calamari an eraser so you got to put that above the calamari okay so meatball crab cake pork belly calamari blue Cheese Kiren ASMR blue cheese blue cheese blue cheese I see you I think we’ve got two more appetite we got Bretta I love Bretta so we got Bretta and we’ve got um barata no barata is yours I’ll try your barata but I’m saying we’ve got Bretta and we’ve got Caraco which you’ve never

Had before it’s beef but it’s raw it’s Unique it’s different then what’s the difference between Cario and tartar same thing are they together pretty much just different different functions of the same word okay and I’ll fill you in what’s going on to our side bit later on

Just so next up on our drinking Journey here uh we are getting the basil smash cocktail I’m going to make it down this six cocktail list maybe um it’s got tangry Jen fresh lemon juice simple syrup that takes the uh tankery out of the way good thank you so that takes the

Tanker out of the way this is the basil smash Kristen would you like to try a you like basil that’s a basil drink it’s a very popular bird name for green birds tankery basil I don’t like chin but that’s an okay drink it like hits a little bit but it’s smooth enough to

Drink it’s like a watered down Sprite but with more alcohol so we call it Bobby Brown cuz it just hits you a little bit help the CH chip don’t take it anyway so now we have the Vera the veretta and the Carpaccio and Kiron said these sound like the sister

Ships to the Titanic wasn’t it the Carpathia that was one of them right I think so in the Lucitania or something yeah I mean we are in a restaurant called Normandy that’s named I think don’t don’t don’t kill me if I’m wrong here but I think it’s named after one of

The um one of the restaurants that’s on the Titanic uh let’s go Bretta first or brusketa I don’t know what the they did it’s got like some dirt on it it does have some dirt on it it’s it’s olives it’s olives it’s olives nope nope emergency emergency it’s olives it’s olives that’s number

Zero carren you’re with me I’m not an olive fan either that’s what happens when you don’t read the menu I just thought it was like use the wine hey Kirsten what time is it hammer time no try again what did you just have 8:16 what did you just have wine30 1:00 but

Close enough all right so I’m going to warn you there’s some olive involved here but we can just avoid it um Carson has never had Carpaccio before it is basically rare beef or raw beef it is safe to eat I have had it oh God okay no

As long as that’s not Olive did did you ask the cow what if it’s safe to eat why would that matter you said it’s safe did the cow tell you youve never tried it go and give it a try then we go to your Bara just go

Around the stuff cuz one of those is Olive but as long as you just try the the actual meat it’s weird it it’s it’s basically there you go it’s not offensive it just kind of is it is it is oh it’s got pepper but it is it is okay now let’s

Take a look what we got here um so this is the Bara what is that looks like an orange like a half an orange person ordered this I’m going to try it first okay oh that does look like half an is it half an orange

No Kristen can you I only have one hand fight fight fight fight dude I don’t even know what this is eat the mystery thing can we ask what is this I got your soup now this one is H tomato and this one is mozzarella com anyway this all overnight that’s why is

Like moist inside it yes I’m ready for my oh that’s actually nice I’m no I’m good there thank you that’s the monster huh it’s not MC good it’s it MSE good you know they make it on board on MSC it’s not MSE good but yeah Carson like the maravia with their cheese station

Uhhuh oh yeah it’s good but it’s not MSC good good it’s like it’s like public good it’s a little better than public good A little better than public good I got I got a lot of salt in there too which is good that’s how mozzarella should be so

Uh yeah that’s good U we finished with our appetizers but uh I’ve got a soup and then we get in to the main event like I said um like the soup we are skipping the pizzas cuz the pizzas are they’re kind of like the Bretta they just kind of

Are not the Bretta the the what’s that I’m sparkling I’m sparkling you not the like the uh Carpaccio it just kind of is but uh I’ll let you know how my minone is I’m going to let Kirsten give a little taste of the minone just to give

Csen do you know actually that’s going to be another short what’s the biggest Danger on cruise ships fire well how can that be we’re surrounded by water cuz when it starts you can’t put it out necessarily it’s not that you can’t put it out that you don’t have the resources

You can’t call the fire department you are the fire department you don’t have control over it this candle has been burning for a long time and Kirsten made a joke uh off camera not she’s going to make it on camera kir that candle looked like it was going to die at the

Beginning of the meal it’s kept burning why it’s practically Hanukkah she L said it’s practically Hanukkah I about to shat myself cuz that was a funny joke um but person to get a wine that got paired I had a bite right before I started hitting record 51 seconds ago I had a

Bite of the fet yeah that’s a good wine to go with that fillet I agree celebrity is one of the last um one of the last companies around that still has Salon that come to the table wait till you get to to MC Yacht Club theist and we have like

Come in and he’d sit and he’d do shots with us you ever been on a ship like that where the freaking Wine Guy sits into shots with you at the end of the night no the closest is I was on an MSC Cruise smoking a cigar once and I smoked with a

Few officers but other than that no yeah smoke they were smoking cigars too yeah they were I mean I’m a cigar smoker a cigar smoker how many cigars how many freaking cigars were we offered today and you didn’t take any like 400,000 we were out in uh Nassau today

I’m crazy are you not familiar with that what what fresh hell is this Richard Joe Biden rubbing the legs in the pool you don’t know about this no okay we’re going to cut the video right now I’m going to show it to Kirsten but

I will say I was a bigger fan of the Lobster um the service has been fantastic here uh and I will say actually we’re not going to do a fullone answer functional review until after dessert so dessert is coming up next going to touch my hairy legs down by the

Pool those of you who know no right so Random scavenger hunt we have to cross another liquor off the scavenger hunt list what is our liquor of choice here Kristen lemon cello and I will tell you interestingly l cello is on the classic drink package though it is priced uh under

$11 so it’s kind of interesting because on MSC it’s on their higher end package but MSC makes their own lemon cello in the crew members toilets down on deck one I believe it I mean why not it’s the it’s the mafia Shipping Company how’s lemon jello wo lemony you

Ever been to sento before sento Italy no I went to sento Italy and I had the lemon trees right outside of my door I’m going to have to get you on one of my globous trips you you’ll love those those are cheap easy simple and the best

Comedy magic what’s his name Mac King his most famous tricks involve Fig Newton that’s why I mention it um he he has some tricks that are just amazing that are his own tricks they’re pretty mind-blowing so and they’re they’re cheap they’re like20 does does the amazing Jonathan still

Perform there he’s dead you know I knew you were going to say that to me how do I know it the amazing Jonathan is dead how do I know that what that he’s dead I knew you were going to say that how do I know the amazing Jonathan was fantastic

What happened I don’t freaking know I think he’s dead when I was a a young adult I went to his one of his magic shows on like Fremont Street or whatever yeah yeah I I’m I’m like I was like pulled on stage I didn’t know if I was

Going to be eaten by a white tiger I’ve seen I’ve seen almost every magic show in Vegas but the weird ass afternoon shows that are like 3 4 in the afternoon have you seen Sig freed and Roy I have I have too that’s old school it’s very old

School did you meet s freed and Roy in costume before the show no you did you just don’t know this so do you remember the people that would go around do you have a memory of s freed and Ry yeah remember the people that would go around

And pass out stickers of lions before the show started Sig freed and Roy were both in those costumes just in Disguise out meeting audience members and passing out those stickers that’s fun that was them I love little secrets like that yeah but the cool thing is we’re going to take you to

The best happy hour in Vegas I will not be going on the roller coaster in Vegas the Mad Manhattan days one or two days we’re going to get the Las Vegas pass that gets you all the attractions in Vegas and see how many attractions we can do in that time if

That makes sense I don’t like heights no no that’s fine there’s like The Madam to sods and the Lego thing and and the The Hunger Games thing and the King Tutt thing and like we’re yelling in the steakhouse I guess we’re raising the steaks sorry I I like I like to talk I

Like to hear the sound of my own voice CH so I’ve never known anyone who likes it more yeah so Madame tusos and oh that’s got to wait for Vegas but it’s got a lot of stuff on it it’s called Las Vegas pass Omega Mart if you must candy martini bar candy

Martini bar is 100% Omega Mart has just gone downhill so much since it opened um they used to have a lot of employees that were in character and stuff like like we’ll talk about it honestly if if you’re like dying we will go to where Omega Mart is because there’s some free

Stuff outside of Omega Mart I I’ll do it if I have to do it alone I’m an independent one you know I know it’s it’s just it’s not worth it anymore it’s just I mean again your first experience you might love Omega Mart um I’ve just I I had a bad taste in

My mouth and the cool thing is there’s a place right outside of Omega Mart where I can just go get drunk okay so I can go do some activities and you can go do a mega Mart and you’ll tell me it wasn’t worth it but yeah we’re going to go to

Where Omega Mart is if that makes sense and you know what they’re also building you like scary it’s okay you like scary like it’s okay like would you go to a haunted house willingly or uh I guess so with you oh it’s I don’t think it’s open yet but they’re building

A year round Halloween Horror Nights in Vegas right where Omega Mart is but we verged me money off topic but we always do so um lemon cello ching ching uh and we shall drink it I we shall finish the uh the desserts and we shall um come

Back to you with a final review I can tell you it’s going to be positive I don’t really have much negatives like I they they gave me legitimate cheese they tricked us with olive bread yeah that olive bread but uh we’ll we back with you for dessert and then

After dessert to give you our final thought all right so we got spon donuts we’ve got a lamello cheesecake which I’m not going to into yet Kirsten is having a f GM with her fig ice cream am I correct gelato fig fig gelato what’s the differ between ice cream and gelato uh

It’s if it’s Italian um with the bun in Italia okay and and some terisu terisu is good very good it comes in this little Whatchamacallit little watch mol usma thingy the only thing I neither of us have tried yet should I try a little lemon jello cheesecake ASMR sorry I’m still fig

Gming she’s having a fig Gasm all right so last night we did laa Chef we did not do the lobster filet menu we did the short rib seab bass menu was okay that was okay look I’m one of those that I will spend more I mean not only will I did spend more on a spin and

Roulette than it cost for two people to go to a specialty restaurant I spend a couple hundred doar of spin sometimes uh cuz I kind of know what I’m doing maybe uh but uh so your thoughts you’re with me excent it’s it’s on a completely different ball field than the lapati

Chef oh yeah I mean we pretty much had the menu here like that was cute but this is food so so here’s something you didn’t learn you didn’t know when you went to the bathroom mhm do you know why our filets were not as good why as we thought cuz they actually

Were we just messed up how so and had a discussion with the Mater D and with the the waiter the lobster messed with the filet because the lobster was so rich that it overwhelmed our taste buds and we didn’t get the richness of the filet the Alfredo no I’m dead serious the

Alfredo sauce in the lobster was so rich that it turned our taste buds up to another level uh and we shouldn’t have got so I want to give we were told that you should getting the spaghetti or the Ragu something that’s a little saltier or not as sweet as the Alfredo sauce and

The Alfredo sauce I it does actually make sense doesn’t it kisten I think it’s all great no I think it was good I’m not I’m not saying that but I’m saying a lot of the richness that you would get from a fillet he actually said that we would have been

Better off if we got the lobster to get the ribeye because the marbling of the ribeye would go along well with a lobster too fatty for me I agree I’m just saying uh but yes um I will say um five out of five stars yes would do

Again oh yeah okay Kiren even said I think we I think we shared this on the channel before kren has a tiny tummy cuz she got her uh she got her uh St gric sleeve yeah so um she said you know what she said to me she goes I wish I had my

Big girl tummy when I came here so I could so I could have more so that will tell you this is Richard and Kiren coming to you from the Tuscan gr Grill on the celebrity Summit Place I didn’t go last time was on board here reminding

You that when you wear no pants the only thing you have left to lose your shirt and yes guess what I am wearing pants I know you didn’t think I was so uh don’t lose your shirt and have a great one bye see you Around
