I must admit that was one of my most memorable holidays ever!!!
Straight from the freezer is extreme for any food, unless you're talking about ice cream, etc!
As for chilled, there's nothing unusual about that - there are a number of soups, for example, that are served chilled. And where chilled rice pud is concerned, you can even get it in little pots from supermarkets, though its cheaper to buy a tin and chill it yourself....
