Creator's Key Takeaways

i'm just back from the carnival mardi gras which has 19 19 eateries on board more than any other carnival vessel out there

this isn't sponsored by the cruise line at all these are just my opinions i was a paying customer on this ship

i ranked it at number 12 because there were 12 restaurants and dining locations that i experienced on the mardi gras it's the worst of those but i'm going to rate it a 4 out of 10 stars i would pass on shebang y'all

i'm giving it a perfect 10 out of 10 because it is a perfect venue i'm so glad it's on carnival ships and i can't wait to see it expand

Creator's Tips & Advice

Book specialty dining on embarkation day using the hub app to use onboard credit.
Try Shaq's Big Chicken for both lunch and breakfast, as it's highly rated.
Don't miss breakfast at Cucina del Capitano for the French toast.
Avoid Shebang due to disappointing food quality.

About our Bacon Score methodology
YouTube Video Description

I rank and review the food on the brand new Carnival Celebration and Mardi Gras after I tried most of it during the inaugural sailing of the Mardi Gras. The Celebration is a brand new ship and features more restaurants and places to eat than any other Carnival cruise ship other than Carnival Mardi Gras. Places like Cucina del Capitano, Guy's Pig & Anchor Smokehouse, Guy's Burger Joint, Rudi's Seagrill, Fahrenheit 555 Steakhouse, Blue Iguana Cantina, Seafood Shack, Street Eats, Shaq's Big Chicken, and many more! The Carnival Mardi Gras was the first ship to sail from Port Canaveral in over 15 months. The Mardi Gras is the brand new ship from Carnival Cruise Line, the first of its Excel Class of ships. The Carnival Celebration will debut in November 2022, followed by a third Excel ship in 2023. #Carnival #CarnivalMardiGras #food Make sure to SUBSCRIBE to my channel today for all the latest from the Carnival Mardi Gras: https://www.youtube.com/zachthetravelingman Also FOLLOW me on social media: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/zachthetravelingman Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/zachthetravelingman
