To want to eat my Xmas dinner while it is hot?

[XmasSprouts]

So today we had Christmas with some family we don’t normally see for Christmas.
They gave us cold plates and all the trimming were put on the table and we were told to serve ourselves. No sign of the turkey. Then they cleared the table to make way for the turkey. It was brought out like Simba in the lion king, I think we were supposed to gasp in delight.
Then it was slowly carved at the table whilst our food went cold. By the time I got my first bite everything was stone cold.
I really prioritise having everything hot when I host. Hot plates, warmed serving dishes and meat carved before serving everything else. Gravy put in jugs last so it is piping hot.
So AIBU to want my Christmas dinner to be hot?

ps this is tongue in cheek as I am grateful not to cook today and know not everybody has the experience to present a good meal for a large group.

Forget hot or cold plates at home - where are these restaurants that still heat plates? Or do I not notice because are they merely warm these days as opposed to scaldingly hot to the touch? Being warned the plate was hot as it was set down is an abiding memory of eating out in the nineties, but I can’t remember the last time it happened and I eat out regularly.

Agree op, nothing worse than a cold roast.
