Here are some Carnival Food Hacks to Make your dining experience even better. Some of these you may already know, and if you have some you’d like to add, please shoot me an email at [email protected].

  • 1. Probably well known by now, but Asking for a side of Peanut Butter with Carnival Chocolate Melting Cake is a must do!
  • 2. Don’t be afraid to ask for the Kid’s Menu in the Main Dining Room – anyone can order from it!
  • 3. Bring Your Own Sundae Toppings and Make Your Own Sundae! What’s better with unlimited Ice Cream than a Sundae!
  • 4. Guy’s Burgers – everyone loves Guy’s Burgers, but there’s a great way to amp it up even more! Stop by the Deli and Ask for a Pretzel Bun – Guy’s on a Pretzel Bun takes it to a whole new level!
  • 5. Pizza Hack – Pizza is almost always available on the ship, but did you know that you can ask for fresh Prosciutto to put on top after it comes out of the oven?!?!
  • 6. Root Beer Floats – Carnival Carries Mug Root Beer – Grab one from the bar and head straight to the Ice Cream Machine and you have an easy Root Beer Float!!!
  • 7. Coffee Hacks – Regular Coffee is included with your Cruise, while Specialty Coffee is not. Why not make your own? Combine Your Coffee with Hot Cocoa to make a Hot Mocha. Add Vanilla Ice Cream to make a Latte. Add Chocolate Ice Cream to make a Chocolate Mocha.
  • 8. Bring a Sleeve of Crackers with you in your luggage – order the Cheese Plate for Dessert in the Main Dining Room (bring your own Ziplock Bags) or snag some from the Buffet and take them back to your room. Nothing better than a little late night Cheese and Crackers Snack with a Glass of Wine to finish the evening!
  • 9. Are they Carving Roast Beef on the Lido Buffet? Go to the Deli and ask for a Hoagie Bun, and grab some of the sliced Roast Beef and Au Jus from the worker, some cheese from the salad bar and make a simple French Dip Sandwich!
  • 10. Frosted Lemonade – Lemonade is Free on the ship – why not add some Vanilla Ice Cream and make a Frosted Lemonade?!?!
  • 11. The Ice Cream Machines can help create so many different things on Carnival Ships. Another great idea is to grab a couple of Chocolate Chip Cookies from the Buffet – put some Ice Cream in the Middle, and you have a nice custom made Ice Cream Sandwich!
