They went away around the same time as the buffet trays and when American Table was instituted. Not referring to chargers but many seafood shack items are at least on a paper lined metal tray. Or bucket. or something. Now add an extra bowl. Charger plates - those were the days. The luxuries that are affordable on smaller ships. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most of Carnival's reduction in plastics use and food waste is part of the settlement of a lawsuit. https://www.travelweekly.com/Cruise-Travel/Carnival-provides-details-on-compliance-settlement Carnival agreed to spend at least $20 million through the end of its probation term to improve food waste management and disposal practices. It also mandates a 50% reduction in single-use plastics on Carnival ships by the end of 2021, along with strategies to reduce the weight of food waste by 10%. Single-use plastics go beyond straws and stir sticks to include items such as butter, sauce and honey packets, utensils, plastic bags in retail shops, individual toiletry bottles, garbage bags in cabins and cup lids.

Don't forget my Drinks On Us Everywhere (aka free Cheers package). And I guess I should pay them back for all that casino free play too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had the lobster roll with mayonnaise and only remember bread and mayonnaise with little lobster. I will try it again with butter rather than mayonnaise. yeah, the lobster rolls are a little light on the lobster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pyxie Posted April 16 #88 Share Posted April 16 This thread has certainly taken a turn from the original question of "is the seafood shack worth it" lol.. Personally, I enjoy it, but I don't get it every time. The lobster roll with butter is great though and I don't think the price is too bad. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anything else great other than the lobster roll? I'm definitely gonna try that. After all these years of cruising, I always forget Seafood Shack while onboard. We were just talking about it at dinner the other day, wondering if it's worth it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We usually get the clam strips and calamari in addition to the clam chowder. It's pretty good and not that expensive compared to other dining options. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Twice and for me was worth it. Someone on cc told me ask for butter, not the ready made up stuff mixed with that mayo type stuff. I never tried the fried stuff. $18 on dream I just got off. The fried mixed fish platter was $20. I'll tell DH about this. He was very disappointed in the lobster roll on our cruise in Jan, too much mayo/filler and not enough lobster. And the rolls weren't filled like they had been on previous cruises. Maybe this way he'll taste lobster with butter instead of a mayo on a roll. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No dog in this fight, but what they were fined for and what measures they have taken maybe for the same purpose, but totally different. The actions are the real statement not what someone on CC says, bad or good. There a re few here who would bash if they turned exhaust waste into gold…. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
