Things we can learn from the video
Press to jump
- 1:10A pizza-box English breakfast opens the tasting; the trio later put it in D tier.
- 4:31Breakfast in bed represents Treehouse Manchester and eventually earns a B.
- 8:26Soul Mama's jerk-spiced chicken, rice and peas arrive; the unanimous verdict is C tier.
- 13:24The group taste strawberry and white chocolate cheesecake blindfolded, assigning another C.
- 16:48The final round introduces a taco representing a Grand Velas Los Cabos dish reportedly priced at $25,000.
- 21:18The taco lands in Q tier after all three try it; Robert's verdict is four out of ten.
An English breakfast arrives in a pizza box, and Niko Omilana discovers another problem: "Oh, it's cold." NDL's "We Tested Every Level Of Hotel Food" starts at the unglamorous end of hospitality, then asks whether climbing the star categories makes lunch any better.
Around 440,000 views have come in since yesterday for the tasting with Chunkz and King Kenny. After NDL's recent Battleships and UNO outings, the games-night arguments have moved to a food tier list. These are dishes representing different hotel levels, rather than a travelogue through the hotels themselves.
The breakfast-box opener, based on a notoriously bad Alton Towers meal, lands near the bottom. But the breakfast picnic representing Manchester's Treehouse Hotel does considerably better. Served while the trio lounge in bed, it earns a B, above the jerk-spiced chicken, rice and peas from Soul Mama at The Gantry Hotel.
Chunkz also finds time to keep reminding Niko about his brief stay on The Traitors. Viewers pick up on that teasing, while others discuss the conspicuously fake background. The food is only part of what is being assessed here.
A blindfolded strawberry and white chocolate cheesecake tasting follows, along with a commercial break advertising Niko's own sweets. Then comes a taco presented as a version of the Grand Velas Los Cabos dish reportedly priced at $25,000, not evidence that the trio spent that sum.
Its luxury billing doesn't rescue it. All three eventually try it, and Niko declares, "Bro, it's inedible." Even Robert the waiter gives it only four out of ten. The trio invent a basement-level Q tier for the supposed five-star finale.
