Then the best part they fill the container with fries really full then put the fries in a bag, then they scoop in another whole scoop of fries into the bag over top the container of fries, so you get like 2 servings . They also put just the right amount of salt on them, they are the best !! Fresh made fries costs a lot of $$$ to have fresh, not spudding potatoes (as evidenced by the outrageous prices at 5 guys). Frozen fries (for an affordable price) are just fine with us. Edited March 21, 2022 by BirdTravels Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lane Hog Posted March 21, 2022 #102 Share Posted March 21, 2022 If you already have a fryer available, fresh made fries are cheaper than frozen premade because potatoes only require room temperature storage. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alfaeric Posted March 21, 2022 #104 Share Posted March 21, 2022 If JR's is ever replaced, it will end up being the exact same thing. The kitchens have large griddles and large deep fryers. Realistically, what is the difference between two burgers with a bun, tomato, lettuce, and a meat patty of some type if they have different brand names? For sure, they are not going to go upscale with the meat if you want to keep it cheap. Although, if they are, why would they bother to change the name? Whatever the name is, you get burgers (and a variety of them), deep fried stuff, and shakes. The only part of that set that *might* change is the special sauce and the shakes- since they would come from a corporate location. If you really, really want a free burger and fries, go to the WJ. The only real way the restaurants can make more money is if they become cabins. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I admit the $10 is reasonable compared to the other upsell restaurants, but it's not quite experiential... nor is it different from what we can get at home. Plus I can get all I can eat burgers and fries in Windjammer... every meal, every day. And in a moment of complete hypocrisy, I don't think twice about grabbing a slice at Sorrentos... or a burger or side of fries at Guys when we are on CCL. But those are free/already paid for. I feel like I could have written this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I love my daughter more. 🙂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love getting that one free milkshake. Their milkshakes are great. Send my aloha to Laura. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've definitely had way better burgers. (In N Out is another one of those "meh, we have it at home" chains that would not entice me to pay out of pocket for it on a cruise ship, kinda like Johnny Rockets. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
