Per the Carnival announcement: For a limited time only, Chibang! as well as popular options Guy’s Pig & Anchor Smokehouse Brewhouse and Cucina del Capitano – all of which normally carry a dinner-time reservations fee or a la carte pricing – will be included in the price of the cruise Yes. Now be free. It would not allow me to edit it to correct it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
noleguy84 Posted June 29, 2021 #27 Share Posted June 29, 2021 For a limited time only - hopefully this is at least for sailings until the end of the year. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bonsai Teppenyaki Same price as I can get locally. Zero value to me. OK for those in rural parts of the country where Teppanyaki is not available.

I cruise to get different experiences than I get at home or at least the same experience at a value price. 32.00 for 1 Teppanyaki meal is not good value, for me. I would go to Chibang and Cucina for 2 dinners and pay the same amount. Everyone is different, that's why there is vanilla and chocolate. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would not eat any specialty restaurants on any cruise if that was the case though since I have all of these type of places near my house and way better than what any cruise line can offer. Wish there was something different but there isn't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stellarose Posted June 29, 2021 #35 Share Posted June 29, 2021 with so many options for "free/ included" food options - not sure I would do dinner in speciality restaurants. now sushi for lunch was a good deal on the breeze. is street eats just for lunch???

ray985 Posted June 29, 2021 #36 Share Posted June 29, 2021 I wonder if they'll keep it free. When I was on the Horizon in March 2020 (last before shutdown), Guy's Pig and Anchor Smokehouse was free to dinner. They said they were testing it out for the Mardi Gras. They wanted to see if they offered speciality restaurants for free, if people will go there instead of the main dining room. Apparently, they were worried with not enough room and big crowds in the dining rooms with so many people on the Mardi Gras. That being said, the "free" dinner at Guy's was not as good as the paid one. It was basically just the free sea day BBQ selections. It wasn't bad by any means, but it wasn't as good as the paid menu was. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moviela Posted June 29, 2021 #37 Share Posted June 29, 2021 I looked the menu over carefully, but could not find any chili beans over ice cream any where? Seems like the perfect fusion food. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JUst my 2 cents…. It doesn't drive me either. But comparing steakhouse at 38, Jiji's and Cucina at 15, and Teppanyaki at 32, Teppanyaki is the worst value to me since that's what I can pay for it locally. All of the other 3 venues represent better value to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Tom-n-Cheryl Posted June 30, 2021 #45 Share Posted June 30, 2021 Well.. so much for my quest to fill the last two dinner evenings in our schedule with JiJi Asian Kitchen. I'm going to miss that place. Now it's obvious why it was not bookable over the last couple of months. Decisions, decisions... Tom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare crewsweeper Posted June 30, 2021 #46 Share Posted June 30, 2021 (edited) Any idea where this is to be located? Is JiJi's no more on the Mardi Gras?
