NV nutrition - what is it? Tips for choosing a hotel. Brief designations of food systems in hotels When everything is included, what is it called and written

Naturally, not only the cost of the trip depends on the type of service, but also how quality the vacation will be.

Let's take a look at all the details in order.

RO (room only), RR (room rate), OB (Only Bed), AO (Accommodation Only) means only hotel accommodation without the possibility of free meals. Choosing this type will allow you to save a decent amount of money when purchasing a tour. At the same time, you will need to take care of your own food, which can sometimes be very inconvenient.

However, many tourists specifically choose “accommodation only” in order to explore the flavor local cuisine and try out several restaurants and cafes. Before your trip, you can study the place and the nearest popular establishments in advance; fortunately, there is now such an opportunity on the Internet.

BB ( bed breakfast) - literally translates to "bed and breakfast". Breakfast is usually either continental or buffet. A continental breakfast is a certain fixed set of dishes that is offered to the guest, and unlike a buffet, it is a lighter form of breakfast. As a rule, this type of food is chosen by active tourists - travelers who do not want to be tied to hotel meals.

BB+ (bed breakfast plus), unlike BB, a more dense, expanded menu option is offered.

HB( Half Board) or "half board" means accommodation with breakfast and dinner. You will need to take care of your own lunches. This type of meal does not include additional snacks or alcoholic drinks.

HB+ (Half Board plus) similar to HB, only here you can get free alcoholic drinks, mostly locally produced.

FB (Full Board) or " full board", i.e. the tourist has three full meals a day. With the FB system you cannot count on free alcoholic drinks. However, this type of food is very convenient for couples with small children, because... everything has already been thought out and there is no need to look for a place where you can eat. Many modern hotels also offer their guests a children's menu, which makes life much easier for parents.

FB+ (full board plus)- also “full board”, but includes a small list of free alcoholic drinks, most often locally produced.

AI, ALL, UALL (all inclusive) or all-inclusive. The dream of many tourists, because... You can eat without restrictions, especially if you are not on a diet. Depending on the star rating of the hotel, this type of food can be either three times a day or multiple times throughout the day (restaurants, barbecues, grills, bars). Depending on the level of the hotel, mainly local alcoholic drinks are provided, and sometimes imported alcohol.

UAI, UALL (ultra all inclusive) or “ultra all inclusive” - similar to the previous type of food, only a large selection of local and imported alcoholic drinks is provided. This type of accommodation with meals will of course be the most expensive, but also the highest quality.

Alternative classification and decoding

But not all countries use abbreviations for the standard classification of hotel food types. Sometimes hotels with a swimming pool in the UAE offer an alternative designation:

EP (same as OB) and means that visitors will not receive free food here at all, because... this is not included in the price;
CP (or continental plan), which provides tourists with a choice of light meals (tea/coffee, buns, sandwiches, fruit) and only once a day in the morning;
BP (bermuda plan)- this is a hearty morning lunch in American style, i.e. they will offer meat/fish dishes, salads, pastries and many other products that are not at all suitable for a vegetarian or a person on a diet;
MAP- half board, consisting of a full breakfast and a hearty lunch. Can also be supplemented with afternoon tea according to the British tradition, even in hotels in the UAE;
AP (american plan), which means full board, i.e. three meals a day with additional snacks.

Types of breakfast

In some cases, when choosing the type of accommodation in an Adler hotel with meals, details such as the type of breakfast may be specified. There are only three of them, different in cost and content:

Continental Breakfast– a light and simple set of dishes and drinks (coffee/tea/juice, buns, fruit);
English type, consisting of hearty scrambled eggs, hot toasters, scones with jam and butter and coffee/tea;
American type– this is the most satisfying and high-calorie set of dishes: hot and cold appetizers, baked goods, sliced dishes, etc.

WE WISH YOU GOOD WEATHER AND A GREAT VACATION!

"All Inclusive" is an all-inclusive food system that is available in hotels around the world. This system is very popular in Turkey.

But even “All Inclusive” can be different - we tell you what the differences may be and what you need to know about.

1. What is “All Inclusive”?

This is an All Inclusive food system. When choosing a hotel with “All Inclusive”, you get three buffet meals a day (breakfast, lunch and dinner) and free drinks, including alcoholic ones.

2. But there are limitations

For example, breakfast, lunch and dinner always take place at the same time, so if you are late, you will have to pay for food in the hotel cafe or bar. Also, most hotels have a time slot during which alcohol is provided. Usually this is from 10 am to 10 pm. Alcohol in “All Inclusive” is only local, imported - for an additional fee.

3. What are the differences then?

In the variety of food. For example, you can buy a tour to a three-star hotel in Turkey - and there will also be “All Inclusive” with three meals a day, only the variety of dishes will be less. In a five-star hotel with “All Inclusive” there will be more dishes: for example, not three side dishes, but five, a large selection of salads and several types of desserts. That is, the concept is the same (three meals a day and drinks), and the difference in the quality and variety of dishes depends on the level of the hotel.

4. What else is included in “All Inclusive”?

May be different in different hotels Additional services, for which you don’t have to pay extra: use of a safe and minibar in the room, massage, hammam and much more. Full list can be found in the hotel description.

5. What is “Ultra all Inclusive”?

This is an Ultra All Inclusive food system. It gives you many more privileges during your stay at the hotel: for example, in addition to breakfast, lunch and dinner, there may also be late breakfast and afternoon tea. Also, hotels operating under this system have a number of free services with which the hotel attracts guests:

Nutrition. It is more varied and is not limited to the standard “breakfast, lunch, dinner” set. Also in Ultra all Inclusive hotels there are also restaurants with different concepts (for example, with cuisines from different countries), and several visits to such restaurants are free for hotel guests.

Imported alcohol. In hotels with “All Inclusive” alcohol is only locally produced, but in “Ultra all Inclusive” there is also imported alcohol - and you don’t have to pay extra for it. You will only have to pay for premium drinks at the bar.

Mini bar. It is either filled once before your arrival, or is constantly replenished. As a rule, you do not need to pay for drinks and food from the minibar in a hotel with the “Ultra all Inclusive” system.

Lots of entertainment. SPA, massage, bicycle rental, tennis, water sports, kids club- everything is free. Each hotel has its own list of free services. There are also paid services, but there are very few of them - mainly car rental, extreme species sports (for example, water skiing) and more.
But be prepared for the fact that a tour with a hotel operating under the “Ultra all Inclusive” system will cost more than the usual “All Inclusive”.

This meat has an elastic structure, so it can be fried several times in a row.

Shark meat is served instead of trout and other local fish.

It is boiled in salt water to reduce the taste. It is almost impossible to detect a forgery.

We don’t throw away 50–60 kg of meat left over from yesterday’s buffet. This is wasteful.

We wash the sauce off the meat, and the next day we cook it with a new sauce.

Pike perch and squid in the kitchen are canned products.

These are canned goods pre-soaked in beer.

Dishes with potatoes dominate the menu, as they are very high in calories and keep you feeling full for a long time.

In the kitchen where I work, three people spend the entire day solely peeling potatoes. I add potatoes to at least 3 meals a day.

There is no waste left in the meat department; all pieces of the carcass are used.

Usually the cutlets contain veal brisket, shank and a lot of other things that you won’t like, so try not to eat cutlets in hotels, but choose only whole pieces of meat. I repeat: it’s better not to eat cutlets.

Take your time to devour snacks on a Turkish night.

Let's figure it out. It takes 2 hours to cook 1 kg of “Turkish raw cutlets”. Depending on the number of guests, you need to prepare at least 20 kg of cutlets. All ingredients are mixed in a large cauldron. To do this, the younger ones in the kitchen put plastic bags on their feet and climb into this very cauldron. The consistency is excellent, but I don’t know the taste, since I haven’t tried it. But the guests like it.

Don't eat salads with mayonnaise.

It would be naive to believe that in a hotel where food is prepared for 2,000 people, everything is done properly in terms of hygiene standards. It is foolish to aggravate the situation by choosing salads prepared with mayonnaise, which promotes the growth of bacteria.

And now about the sweets...

Stale cakes that are left over from yesterday are collectively collected from display cases, mixed again, decorated with pralines, chocolate drops, fruit, whipped cream and sent back to the buffet.

Still, costs are inevitable.

To deceive our customers, we prepare an abundance of watermelon and pumpkin decorations. According to my calculations, for 20 dishes there are 50 decorations. First, you need to satiate your eyes, and then your stomach. We know a lot about this.

Choose dishes prepared by chefs in front of you, accompanied by a gastronomic performance.

I know that I have to line up. I know that this is not the most delicious thing on offer. However, the most hygienic you will find in a hotel.

Even worse than with food, the situation is with drinks.

As you know, the all-inclusive system most often includes locally produced drinks, and imported alcohol is poured for a fee. In practice, even if a tourist pays, the first 1-2 glasses turn out to be imported. Then the person loses his vigilance and is refilled with low-quality local alcohol.

It is also unknown what kind of water is used to dilute juices for breakfast, or how often the tanks in which drinks are placed on the buffet are washed. And finally, what kind of water is used to freeze ice?

I will say finally, do not eat the small cakes that are usually prepared for birthdays. I won’t tell you why, because I might get into trouble...
