Hopefully security would step in and make an example out of those that are giving the staff a hard time by escorting them away to their stateroom and kicking them off at the next port. Then again it might make for some interesting entertainment at the expense of those not complying. Which is exactly why I love sitting near the buffet, while never eating at it, but just for the pure "entertainment" value of watching grown adults act as if they have not eaten in a month. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, how much can someone load on one plate. 🤢But then that will probably be changing when/if cruising resumes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And then when they only eat half of what they piled on their plates, which only an NFL 300 pound player could eat, they leave for someone else to clean up. I think traditional buffet will be a thing of the past for a while, but as a result, I should get a reduced fare because then Celebrity will have taken one of the entertainment venues away from me. 🎂🍩🍕🍟🍔🥓🥐🍞🥞🧇🌭 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the Cruise Critic nametags are used (Download and print our Meet & Mingle Nametags) you fill in just your member name, just your real name or both. It is your choice. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That issue has already been resolved. Richard Fain announced months ago that there would be no more self-serving in the buffets on any ships. The crew will plate up passengers food choices and then hand it to them. Hopefully this might stem a lot of the waste.

Sounds good in theory, practically , who knows ??? " Gimmee more xxx, another scoop , and I'll have 3 xxx, oh, what the heck, I'll try the xxx " . What the cruise line could do is use smaller plates.

We aren't huge buffet fans but we like to get our occasional hamburger from the mask/pool grill and bring them into the OVC to eat. Get our beverage of choice and a dessert while we are in there.

We've seen too way many scary situations in there! ”There's none so queer as folk” as our dear Welsh cruising friends used to say.
