Titanic's First Class Dinner- First Class Dining on RMS Titanic 

lmfaooooo

lmaooo

😂😂😂😂

lol

Seriously?

+Ed Ram I would assume, thouhg I might be wrong, that the 3rd Class food would be kind of simple. Like potatoes, vegetables, some simple stew with pork or soup, etc. 2nd Class food... maybe a little more classy, like a tartin, some roast, etc. but not as fancy as 1st Class. This is just what I imagine it'd be like. I might be completely wrong.

it makes sense. 3rd class would have also got porridge. skrivbok

Ed Ram Yeah, that too. Didn't think of that, but yeah. that would make sense as well. :)

This is what I found, but there are other examples online as well. "How Second- and Third-Class Passengers Dined on the Titanic Second- and third-class passengers on the Titanic had their own dining saloons, where they were served breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Titanic passengers received different food options based on this ticket’s class, and the second- and third-class passengers had no restaurant options, as first-class passengers did. Second-class dining saloon In the second-class dining saloon, located on the Saloon (D) deck, diners ate at large rectangular tables, often with strangers. The saloon provided starched white linen tablecloths and napkins. It could hold 394 diners. Interestingly, the diners sat in swivel chairs fastened to the floor, the idea being for the chairs to swivel and offset the rocking of the ship. Here are examples of breakfast, lunch, and dinner menus from the second-class dining saloon, taken directly from the original menus: Breakfast menu (April 11, 1912): Fruit; rolled oats; boiled hominy; fresh fish; Yarmouth bloaters; grilled ox kidneys and bacon; American dry hash au gratin; grilled sausage; mashed potatoes; grilled ham and fried eggs; fried potatoes; Vienna and Graham rolls; soda scones; buckwheat cakes; maple syrup; conserve; marmalade; tea; coffee; watercress Lunch menu (April 12, 1912): Pea soup; spaghetti au gratin; corned beef; vegetable dumplings; roast mutton; baked jacket potatoes; roast mutton; roast beef; sausage; ox tongue; pickles; salad; tapioca pudding; apple tart; fresh fruit; cheese; biscuits; coffee Dinner menu (April 14, 1912): This menu was divided into courses: First course: Consommé with tapioca Second course: Baked haddock with sharp sauce; curried chicken and rice; spring lamb with mint sauce; roast turkey with savory cranberry sauce; green peas; puree turnips; boiled rice; boiled and roast potatoes Third course (desserts): Plum pudding; wine jelly; coconut sandwich; American Ice Cream; nuts, assorted; fresh fruit; cheese; biscuits Third-class dining saloon In the third-class dining saloon, located in the Middle (F) deck, diners sat at long tables that could seat 20. They hung their hats, coats, and scarves on hooks attached to the walls. The saloon was large and spare. It could seat 473, which means that two seatings were necessary to accommodate all 710 passengers in third class. The food was hardy and wholesome. Here’s the fare served in the third-class dining saloon on April 14, 1912: Breakfast: Oatmeal porridge and milk; vegetable stew; fried tripe and onions; bread and butter; marmalade; Swedish bread; tea; coffee Lunch: Bouillon soup; roast beef and brown gravy; green beans, boiled; potatoes; cabin biscuits; bread; prunes and rice Dinner: Rabbit pie; baked potatoes; bread and butter; rhubarb and ginger jam; Swedish bread; tea." - Titanic for Dummies (You're not a dummy...that is the name of the book :) )

Well, seems like good food to me in both 2nd and 3rd class, really. Nothing I wouldn't eat with good appetite there. :)

Poor people work so others can eat. Rich people eat so that others can work.

The rich are well fed and have lack of appetite because when they want to eat they can, where as poor people eat what they can, when they can.

@@MiseryDesigns yeah but not even rich people. Today eating is more a social event than a means of survival like it was in the early 20th century for the average folk. The average worker today making 30-40k a year is about 10x more well off than your average worker 80-100 years ago. Most back then had to plow their own fields, raise chicken and milk their own cows for milk, to get eggs, fruits and vegetables anything else was bought at the farmers market. My gran parents on both sides were raised on a farm. Hard work was just a way of life back then. If you didn't work hard you didn't eat and also didn't get paid. 300-400 years ago we would be considered kings and queens as far as the conveniences that are afforded us these days.

hence the hugeness of poor people.

Poor people focus on quantity, The rich focus on quality. Still respect on both sides since golden delicacies can be made even by the cheapest in the market.

Well, you should never go in the water with a full stomach.

@@roxyshow123 well that is quite true, but...... If I knew it was going to be my last meal?!

@@shaneseccombe4803 Wellllllll, that's for condemned criminals.

@@roxyshow123 touché!

@@roxyshow123 hi brainchild! Had any sinking feelings lately?

Ivette R. The portions looks extremely small. That’s my only guess. It adds up in the end but it only looks like bitefuls of food at a time.

By going to the head and barfing it up while "powdering their noses."

The dinner would take all night and consist of relatively small courses individually. So you would eat for hours without stuffing yourself to the gills. Dinner was as much a social event as it was about eating, and people in all classes would wear their sunday's best so to speak.

Lots of food, but I think the servings were small.

They obviously didnt eat everything and same goes to the men. Thats tooo much even for todays.

Mark NC last meal

Too soon? 😂

Lol i hate u

lol they had plenty of that for desert what you saying

I don't know whether to laugh or cry at that one lol

At least he didn't say drowning..

he meant to say drowning it

Could have been worse.... He could have said *iced*

Jer Xu lmaooo i’m going to hell 😂:(

@@matteframe Iceberg right ahead!

Looks like this restaurant isn't doing this anymore either. But there IS a book of ALL the menus (not just 1st class) from the Titanic. You can make those, or hire a caterer to make those and host a party (the book also gives tips on how to host a Titanic-themed party).

@@aewtx, do you happen to know the name of the book?

@@amberhallacy8399 Last Dinner on the Titanic www.amazon.com/Last-Dinner-Titanic-Menus-Recipes/dp/078686303X I checked it out from the library. It was an awesome book.

WOMEN AND CHILDREN FIRST

@@chandlerbranchrailfanprodu5928 what?

BNSF 8010 how is that sexist?? Children would have been both male and female. Women at that time would have had as much rights as children and prob viewed just the same. So it makes sense that they would have chosen the most vulnerable,e to board first.

@@youngcontrarian8532 Would have had as much rights as children? Are you kidding? Are you maybe just stretching that a little bit? Just a little? And yeah, because women being physically much more vulnerable and weaker is just a social construct, amirite? Without those policies, most survivors would have been adult males, obviously.

Mynthon Titanic sank in 1912. Women in America didn't get the right to vote until 1920. So let that sink in before u start telling me I'm stretching it. Women back then had very few rights and yes they were seen as less than.

Unfortunately fruit and cheese are both very expensive for restaurants-the margins are very thin. fruit goes bad quickly, and it can be difficult to source high quality fruit depending on location/season. high quality cheese has to be stored in specific conditions and also goes bad very quickly. just not worth it for most places!

@@tais1355 damn that made me sad lol

Laver constantine sorry! if you want to read about cheese for restaurants and why it’s expensive but why it’s also awesome check out the Terrance Brennan section of Anthony Bourdain’s “Heroes and Villains” chapter of Medium Raw. here’s the last bit in case it’s too much work to look up: Terrance Brennan is a hero. By taking a series of mad risks, he’s raised all boats-made things better for all of us.

@@tais1355 just surprising about the cheese being hard for them to have tons of cause well....it's cheese. I understand fruit especially it depends where you live but the cheese? I feel like only one that should be hard to get is the maggoty cheese which I don't think I could ever will myself to try lol. I'd even try the Cambodian fried tarantulas before that and I'm terrified of them

Laver constantine *good* cheese can be hard to get. and it’s expensive. I think most customers who order a cheese plate are expecting a little more than cheddar and some brie that they could buy are the supermarket.

Obsessed enough to recreate the sinking with you on board?

Such a jerry

Taylor Fausett I understand how you feel. It makes me want to eat an amazing meal and than for dessert drown on a sinking ship.

Taylor Fausett hmm might be more accurate to say ur obsessed with how ppl live back in the day. Atleast that’s the case for me, things from the past fascinate me👌🏻

I think is morbid to eat the last first class dinner served on the Titanic.

one side of me says, "That's freakin' hilarious" and the other says, "I'm going to hell for laughing at that"

If I'm on death row: "What do you want for your last meal?" "The 9 course dinner that was served on the Titanic"

John H. Schmitt Same though

Didn’t most of 1st class passengers make it out alive?

@@tonyeason7900 Only the women. The survival rate of first class men was 34 %.

Aj d That’s actually how a lot societies and courtships ran, at events women would flock to the fattest single man in the room because back then many people could barely afford more than the basics like porridge and cheap meat

Now women appreciate girth below the belt line.

Aj d lmao

@@jesses1589 lmaoooooo

@@jesses1589 Woman appreciate the girth of your bank account these days.

And it was basically all you could eat

@@mquiroz90 The RU-vid channel "Tasting History with Max Miller" recently did a video on the third-class passenger menu, including a recreation of the rice soup that was one of the courses. His channel is pretty neat, as he recreates historical recipes while also talking about the history relevant to that particular recipe. The video is part of a series about the dining on the Titanic, so there is more to come.

@@adamhauskins6407 😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂😭😭😭😭😭

@@rofecoxib22 what it was

3rd class was still paying roughly $1-2k per ticket (inflation) so yeah I hope they got at least decent food lol. They weren’t just chucked whatever it was still prepared food!

yeh but what history doesnt tell you is that they all got gastro from the fish.

this was the First Class menu. There was 2nd, 3rd and steerage below

@@JoJo-jy2rw good on ya,👍. I bet some hadn't even had a last meal.

@Jason Woods WOW!!! Very disrespectful comment calling women SL***

@Jason Woods I'm okay hunny buns it's okay..lol

you are no class and low life!! probably would have sank with the Titanic!!

I didn’t not get my spaghettiOs I got spaghetti I want the press to know this

10 hours later: Pop tart for the tenth course please... Didn't realize we were on breakfast, already, my the night went fast, woofing down all these courses...

@@nahpoli Bruh

My own personal nightmare was being forced to do the dishes by hand every single night from 8 years old on for my mom's family of five kids. "Please get a dishwasher mom." "I have one, YOU." Awful.

At last, all 900 dishes finally clean. *Sees water begin to flood kitchen* 😐

I know it's been a year since this comment was posted but damn... Imagine how the dishwashers felt during that fateful night.

Imagine those shifts 😬

Lmfao

I was just thinking what would Gordon Ramsay say while watching this. Scrolled down and saw your comment XDXD

"IT'S FUCKING ROTTTEN!!!!"

freakyflow Gordon is Scottish

What the fuck does that have to do with the Titanic being built in Ireland and having a English captain?

Cool to know that it was a 1st officer that had his hands on the helm to follow the course the Captain plotted and the speed he told the 1st officer to keep Even when its the 1st officers job to recommend a safe slower course at night in iceberg waters which he ether said nothing due to the chance of being put to 2nd officer in favor of the captain's friend requested on the Titanic as 2nd officer Or continued the same heading and speed at the start of his shift (dusk) into the night Changes of speed and heading are made from the captain or if the first officer understands a risk to the ship or people And with the brand new top of the line ship ....If was me No way would i be risking my 20 years of xp to tell the captain Hey i know we have look outs however at night they will not be able to see as far maybe we should cut speed to 3/4 even with the owners wanting to make record breaking times and are the ones keeping us paid ... The problem was on the Captain to make the choice...Thus the Captain sank the ship

The portion size of many courses was not very large; and even on the larger ones, you were not expected to "clean your plate." Plus it was a very leisurely paced experience lasting several hours, which allowed for each course to be eaten rather slowly.

This was only for wealthy people who saw eating as a social event, the point was that it had to last for a couple of hours, so they had plenty of time to eat everything. You can still see this on some very premium restaurants where they'll serve you up to 10 courses with very small portions because you're paying for the experience and the event.

Εύροκλύδων you get traumatize! You get traumatized! You all will get traumatized!

Made me choke

That's a fantastic idea. Make it like how the water goes in and out a' la Earthquake at Universal Studios in the 90's.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Εύροκλύδων 😂😂

Yes different if your not 1%, but just steerage. www.housebeautiful.com/lifestyle/news/a6039/titanic-menus/

we dont have 3 hours to eat...

Caligula Longhbottom there wasn't much else to do on the Titanic except eat

And scream and die. But it was an adventure not offered on many other cruise lines.

Dane William They had a gym and a swimming pool. Also, a church.

that's why Rose and Jack left early, to make sure she could get naked for him to draw her and they could do the nasty later on in that car.

Tf do you even eat then? Those are like air to me 💀

@@hotpikachu trust me after the sixth course you’d probably feel like ass. foie gras and meat seems like a true artery-clogging entree

@@carlosa.sanchez896 and not be farting the whole time.

Good for you! I need to cook more as well.

They were more physically active too. There was no electronic anything except early telephones and lightbulbs people had to move around more even the rich

Two other things also worked to their advantage back then. People walked more and look at the portions in the video... they aren't chowing down on a honking 32-oz porterhouse with each plate. The sizes are acceptable for one person.

Good for you. Do you spend more money for food now? I find the junk food is much cheaper than cooking from scratch.

I remember when I used to read more than the first sentence of a post that was all about the poster. Now I never do that and avoid the crushing boredom

Was there even "Rose water sorbet"? Because it's not on the menu. Only French Ice cream(maybe because he can't pronounce french words correctly?) Joking aside they are not authentic recreations. More of a "inspired by" or "let's make our stuff and put original menu's items names on them"

Time to go get that cookbook

@@yanikkunitsin1466 True. I think they are just using the Titanic's name to sell their food. "Rose water sorbet" I think was a deliberate choice, to create an association with the movie character Rose.

The cookbook probably contains the recipes for second and third class passengers, as well as for officers and staff members. I doubt people could consume much more than the dinner shown here. And, the side dishes were also listed along with the entrees, and it appears that only very small amounts of the sides were needed so you had to look good at the plate to spot them.

@@christinetheresa7416 Actually the last meal they ate was a 11 course meal. So it is missing some , and they seem to added their own touch to the menu at this restaurant.

You'd have more success wih a restaurant doing 3rd class food of the Titanic that repeated trade of a 1st class menu

Randy Woodworth any update? I would love to know how the 2nd & 3rd ate back then (while on the ship).

I can imagine: slob with rice for the filthy plebs - whereby the rice would already have been wasted on the lot. No thanks, but I think I'd rather stick with good food and leave the pigs to dig in at the trough to enjoy their "dinner".

3rd Class menu, 14. April 1912: Starter: Brandy 1st Course: Soupe D'Eau Freche 2st Course: Croute de Pain (only as long as they last), with a shot of Brandy 3nd Course: Le délice de l'Irlandais (Tatters with whatever the kitchen's dump offered toujour). 4rd Course: Le plat du pauvre (Cold platter, wedged between a dirty thumb and index finger; speciality of the house) and a mouthful of Brandy. 5th Course: Cancelled for technical reasons, substituted with some complimentary Brandy. Dessert: Brandy (optional) The evening will commence with drunk brawling and the fornication with wenches and concludes with a karaoke-styled performance of "Dreams on Ice". Complimentary drinks served, courtesy of White Star Line.

fenriz218 If you want to look really cool then I suggest next time just know that "4rd" isn't a fucking thing you tool.

Dinner was an event back in those days, yes they lasted hours and hours

In some countries meals are still a big thing. France and places in South America are such places, I believe. Here in America you throw a happy meal at someone's face and keep going. Hope to travel to a country and experience meals there for a change.

So true!

In most of Europe, dinner is still an event. Dinner is not just about the food, it's about socialising and talking, and can last for hours

As they said, the meal was the entertainment, or at least a very big part of your evening. And, 10 courses does not mean 10 plates of various foods. Reminds me of an old Archie Bunker episode where he gave his version of food combining. So, instead of "combining", your just confined to eating one thing at a time. So, while it may take a little longer, not really that much.

You might wish to read Col. Archibald Gracie's account "The Truth about the RMS Titanic", as well as Mr. Beesley's account. One of the individuals I find despicable is of course Bruce Ismay, by that note, his partner in crime J.P. Morgan. You may also wish to read the entire testimony of the New York (US) investigation (Lead by a Michigan Senator) and that of the UK investigation lead by Lord Mersey. I think the closer you can get to the event, the closer you come to the truth. Also be sure to read the testimony of my personal hero, Molly Brown who was in lifeboat 6 and told HItchen's to sit down and shut up, or she would throw him out of the boat. Hitchen's was pretty much losing it, and Molly had had enough. I'm writing a song about her in life boat 6...... she was an incredible woman and a model for us all, to this day. I still want to know why the Californian sailed with no passengers and only a cargo of sweaters and blankets - and kept asking about the color of the rockets. This touches us to this day, so many years later. Finally, we must be very careful judging Edwardian's by "modern" values, they must be judged within the framework of their own time period, else the image becomes skewed.

Cynthia, these are some great resources! Thank you so much for sharing!

@Cynthia - I'd love to hear the song, maybe help make a video with you? :)

that's a nice consideration for the ladies, the cooks wouldn't want the ladies to get too uncomfortable in all of their corsetry and finery.

Exactly that’s why there was two I think also. One was less heavy for ladies

That's sexist, bro.

Why do the ladies get the clear soups?

@@karencarney7595 probably because people considered their appetite to be smaller bc of corsets or diets

Very posh gentleman

Maybe have someone pushing a block of n ice on a shopping trolley past the window of the dining room to make it seem even more real?

Nearer my God to Thee

at least the sharks ate well after the ship sank

I thought all those recipes were "frozen in time"

@@danniebergall6356 no sharks in freezing water

They should revive all the meals from 2 centuries ago!

Titan52berg chefs also deserve more credit for trying to preserve history. We get paid shit, and we are treated like shit. Plus north americans make a mockery of what we do on tv.

I don't know whether to laugh or cry at that! Funny but also messed up!

Funny, make jokes of a tragedy, got any jokes for children being murdered in there classrooms?

This was the FIRST thing I thought! I’m glad somebody else said it so I didn’t have 2 because I felt bad laughing!😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣

@@jackbrady1103 There's a big difference there sir. The Titanic happened over 100 years ago, and school shootings are happening today. It's a bit different when one topic has had a century to be mulled over vs a topic that's fresh and a sensitive issue.

@@tabbiya9174 This comes from K12academics.com if you want to look it up. "The earliest known United States shooting to happen on school property was the Pontiac's Rebellion school massacre on July 26, 1764, where four Lenape American Indian entered the schoolhouse near present-day Greencastle, Pennsylvania, shot and killed schoolmaster Enoch Brown, and killed nine or ten children (reports vary). Only two children survived." Smarty pants!

There were too many roasted items on that menu!

Funny people on here, they all burned alive. Not funny you know.

I'm hosting my first Titanic dinner party soon, and notice that no bread or rolls were served or listed on the menu. Do you think it was served but not mentioned? I asked this question in a comment which has gone unanswered so I thought I would reach out to a few other people that commented and ask what they thought.

@@radardimaria2261 Emily Post, in her 1922 "Etiquette", explains that bread is presented to the guests by the server throughout the meal. The guests take the piece they want (with their fingers!!) and set it directly on the tablecloth. Butter is not offered. (p. 205-06.) Bread & butter plates were never part of dinner service; they were used for breakfast, luncheon, and supper service. (p. 242) The old rule of 1900 and earlier is that a roll was folded into the napkin at each place before the guests came to table. Ms. Post mentions that practice and gently mocks it as an outdated. (p. 191) I suspect, but I cannot confirm, that bread at dinner was of the "dry" sort, made without butter, milk, or eggs; otherwise, the bread would leave a stain on the tablecloth. You are correct in noting that bread is never mentioned on menus of the time.

That would be fun!

@Samantha Scott cool! Thanks 😃

The ones served today are far more elegant and elaborate. Visit your local degustation restaurant to see the standard being served in modern times. It is fascinating. Its like you're eating works of art.

Foie Gras tortures the birds. Fuck you!

I agree, Leslee- it would be a nice touch. I bought a reproduction cup and saucer at the Titanic exhibit, and enjoyed using it, always imagining the passengers having tea.

@Justin J. Liu I believe she was just voicing an opinion.

@Linda Clarke That is a nice way to make daily life a bit more interesting. Those small things you do for yourself are important in my opinion. That is why I always stop at the gift shop wherever I go... Some people say that it is touristy and phony but whatever I do it for myself.

@@richj24 If you ever go to Hawaii, go to the swap meets

Currently learning the finer points of fine dining and haute cuisine in culinary school. For one thing, each of the courses is fairly small; this kind of food is for the palate, not the stomach. Some of these dishes can also be so rich, more than a few bites could give someone a stomachache! One last thing.... these kinds of dinners with large tasting menus last for HOURS. I was one of the students selected to cook for our quarterly gourmet dinner at culinary school, and the whole service (10 FUCKING COURSES) took well over 4 hours. It's fucking NUTS.

@@tr4nsg0th1ca Yes, I believe dining was the source of entertainment on the Titanic for the wealthy passengers. They would spend hours eating all the courses, while talking and socializing.

@@ankushzap No one was still eating. The only passengers still awake and in public places were those few in the smoking room as it was beginning to close - the iceberg hit at the same time.

I imagine the first class passengers that ate the 10 course meal and survived would have had to have taken MASSIVE dumps off the side of the life boats the next morning. Not a pretty sight.

+Henna du plessis The Titanic was an ocean liner, not a cruise ship. I strongly suggest you go to wikipedia and educate yourself on these two completely different classes of ship.

I have had nothing like this either, but I have to admit that I have had something I have never had before on every cruise I have been on.

Titanic is really special :D

GiGi And what does "every cruise that you've ever been on" have anything to do with the Titanic? I hope you are not another moron who doesn't know the difference between an ocean liner and a cruise ship?

Rant Gant Stop with your nonsense.

I don't think that was the case. You would be enjoying your time, not rushing, sitting with your friends, discussing politics, business, relations, religion, philosophy and what not and slowly but surely you would consume everything

tudorjason--Actually, it's not as much food as one would think--especially when taken over a six-hour dining time. I ran a charity ball about 40 years ago, and we did a similar (but not the same) menu before dancing to launch the remodel of a well-established hotel. The portions were quite small and, don't forget, Americans have gotten used to over-sized portions in restaurant meals. It was a wonderful experience and, no, we were not "stuffed" from a surfeit of food (or calories). Note the limited starches/carbohydrates in these courses.

@Jamie Thunder--Well said. For those who DON'T know, Peter Paul Rubens was a very influential Flemish artist of the Flemish Baroque period.

I mean today, food is more affordable for the majority of people. We still waste so much food because there is too much for people who can afford food. Markets throw out food almost every day.

Hell I'm a man, who sometimes has little to no self control, and there's no way I could eat all of that. Not even if I was high. But I think the portions were probably very small.

I think the popular death row meals would be a gas... And maybe instead of starters served on The Hindenburg, why not a good barbeque? The Pripyat meals should certainly come with Ukranian Borshch with a little LED light hidden in the bottom of the bowl. Years ago when movie tie-ins were popular with fast-food restaurants, I Photoshopped together my version of a "Schindler's List" Happy Meal. The tray liner had cut out yellow stars of David and a little SS armband. The meal itself came in a popup cardboard box that looked like a railroad car. The mind reels with possibilities.

Not nearly as macabre as other Titanic themed things, like those inflatable slides for birthday parties so Timmy and his friends can pretend they're sliding down the angled decks to their violent, icy deaths. This is nothing compared to that, let alone accurate.

@@tomemeornottomeme1864 Its not respecting Titanic, unless there is money to be made. In Belfast we are experts at fleecing the public over a disaster.

Edwardian. Victoria died in 1902.

not like Jack (or Rose for that matter 😂) would give a shit, but the canapes at the start would have actually had caviar. The preparation by this chef is, I think, a more creative spin and not quite accurate, as on the Titanic it would have been shrimp butter with a poached shrimp and caviar on toast

Yehhhs, they died with their tummies full of yum yums and luscious goodies. :D

The filthy rich probably were in the life-boats first, stamping on any hands trying to grab the gunwhales

Their wasn't second or third class there.

I would not want this one, that's for sure.

@@suepowell8799 I agree

Yeah,I wouldn't want to eat flowers and fancy salads.

honeybun33 I know... I just still wouldn't have been bothered by staying aboard a little longer regardless how long it was gonna take. Could've been a much more beautiful night had they have had of.

However it wasn't new, it was the Olympic disguised

あ Layla Malinday あ Its a ship. You can't just stop it like how you could a car. Also, you can only slow down so much, even then you'd still wade in the water lol

@Nyree Harris The Titanic carried about 600m of anchor chain but it sank in an area where the ocean is about 3800m deep.

Captain Smith went down with the ship, because he realized if he survived, he would probably have been charged with multiple counts of manslaughter! History has treated him well, but he, and he alone, deserves most of the blame for the entire tragedy. He had no business steaming ahead at such a high rate of speed through potentially dangerous waters!

The dinner lasted for hours, so I guess they ate a little at a time. But I see what you mean.

So it is...

It was probably not a nine course dinner. It was a menu that you ordered from. By 1912 the world was getting away from those overdone Victorian feasts ( that queen had died 11 years before). And the Titanic’s dining room was a public place, not a private dinner party.

@@radamik Wrong, the details of the meal were recorded and are common knowledge... not only was there at least 9 courses, there were 11 in total. As for the original comment... you might want to skip the corset if you prefer to be comfortable when stuffing your face.
