Guy's Burger, meet Supply Chain

[Tom-n-Cheryl]

Just boarded the Conquest for a Christmas quickie. Made our way to "day 1 lunch" (Guy's Burgers).

 

It was mainly a visual (and handling!) issue - though still tasted good, but was surprised to see the burgers being served on small brioche buns! 🙂

So the burger is the same, but the bun is smaller?

 As far as I could tell, it was the same size/type of patty. Not so much "where's the beef", but "where's the bun"!  😄 

 

As you can see, they were rather stingy on the fries, but I was basically full - so that worked out well!

What a bummer, we'll be on the conquest on the 3rd.. Was already bummed that it was so far behind the boat we were on in terms of food choices

In her day, from a Carnival standpoint, the Conquest seemed to have plenty of options. Nowadays, it's just a notch above a Fantasy Class ship !!

The lone bun you see there was what Cheryl skipped   🙂

I am starting to think the OP has it right - supply chain problem. On our cruise earlier this month on the Glory Guy's fries were different than usual (had some kind of coating on them) and the meat was greasy as if it had a higher fat content. But the buns were the same as always. It could be that different ships are able to obtain different food supplies at different times and it will just be hit and miss from ship to ship and cruise to cruise. That makes be feel better about my Guy's experience since we will be on the Glory again in a few weeks. There is hope!

Perhaps a dumb question but can't they make their own rolls in the ship's bakery?

[Tom-n-Cheryl]

I wish they would throw the CD overboard... this guy is on the PA doing the safety briefing, in several different "voices".  I'm sure some people think it's hilarious.

 

GEESH...

So is this going to be your review, a teeny tiny burger and a pitiful number of fries. Or are you going on to the related masked enforcement policy 🤣 Perhaps photos of drinks with how much Achol you can consume 😁.More to follow please .🖖 Live long and prosper, which in human form means, party on.

They were, don't know what's up with that. I noticed huge yeast rolls for burgers placed on trays to be baked wheeled about Guys burgers entrance.

They can bake, but they don't make the dough.

Supersize the whole deal and order one more.

Was the bun tasty?  I like brioche buns....

It was ok 😊

Saw someone walking around today with a Guy's burger. Regular size seeded bun. Does Guy's normally have sesame seeds on the buns? Can't recall..

Looks pretty good

A Fun Squad member said he doesn’t think Guy’s burgers are as good as McDonald’s. 😂
