Conquest/Blue Iguana Salsa Bar Question

Does the salsa bar serve chips with the salsa? Our son was on the Triumph a few months ago and they didn't have any chips!

 

I don't remember seeing them at the salsa bar, but I think I saw there somewhere else on the buffet. I do remember having chips and salsa. Hopefully someone else remembers.

This may be a dumb question but why would salsa be served with no chips?

 

That's like serving Cheerios with no milk....

 

Confused. 😣

I haven't been on the Conquest, but am familiar with the salsa bar on Breeze. If it is setup the same way, it is several iced containers of different types of salsa (pineapple, hot and chipotle are some that I remember). I also think they had some bottled sauces but may be confusing with Guy's Burgers. :)

 

Location of the chips is escaping me. :confused:

I know! And I really looked forward to the Blue Iguana. No chips or hard tortillas of any kind. They had chips and cheese on the old grill where Guys is now, and on the burrito bar on the ships that have them, but not here where they have all of these great Salsa.

I can understand that but like i said chips and salsa would make more sense.

Just off Glory, and no chips!! I heard it was because people kept putting their hands in to get the chips, and it was unsanitary...

 

I got a huge bag of tortilla chips on our first day with our Cabana and brought them back to the ship and ate them with the salsa bar offerings. Some yummy stuff there! Loved the black bean salsa...

That just seems so weird to me. I guess because I am from California and now live in Arizona. You don't have salsa without chips.

So I guess it sounds like we need to bring a bag of chips with us!

 

That is a great idea!

 

Just off the Freedom yesterday and the only time they had chips was at one of the late night parties on the lido deck but otherwise no chips!

 

Carnival, put chips out for the salsa bar!

When I sailed on the Glory I would frequent the Blue Iguana a lot for the fish tacos. I actually think that the "salsa bar" is for adding garnishes to your tacos and burritos that you get from the Blue Iguana. The bowls with the different sauces and salsas are fairly small and there's quite a variety. I really don't think they're meant for chips. They'd have to constantly be refilling.

We went into the gift shop and noticed a can of Pringles potato chips were $5.99. :eek:

I can get them at my local Ralph's for $1.00.

 

I guess it's worth it if you really want them.

 

 

Thanks. I think I'll bring some on. I love chips and salsa with a nice cold margarita. Can't wait!
