Fish & Ships Review: Was It Worth It?

9/1/2025

Fish & Ships Review | Independence of the Seas


Fish & Ships on Royal Caribbean is a complimentary dining option offering, well.. you guessed it fish and chips!
​

Fish & Ships on Embarkation Day ❤︎ Independence of the Seas Review

Is Fish & Ships open on Embarkation Day?


Yes. Fish & Ships was open on embarkation day during our 4-night cruise and I recommend grabbing a bite here on day one if you want to avoid a busy windjammer buffet. 

Fish & Ships Menu | Independence of the Seas


In the past, Fish & Ships was a paid casual dining option, but for the last few years it has been free, aside from an up-charge for a Fried Lobster Tail basket & chips (fries) at $12. 

I'd like to try the fried lobster tail basket next time and let you know if it's worth the splurge ;)
​

What's on the menu at Fish & Ships?


​For free, you can enjoy: 
  • Fish & Chips with tartar sauce
  • Chicken Fingers & Chips with honey mustard
  • Fried Shrimp & Chips with cocktail sauce
  • Crispy Fish Sandwich - lettuce, tomato, and tartar sauce 
    ​

Fish & Ships Independence of the Seas Food Pics


We started with one order of fish & chips and chicken fingers without fries (gotta pace yourself on a cruise lol). 
​

Fish and Chips + Chicken Fingers on Independence of the Seas ❤︎ Fish & Ships Review


​Chicken Fingers (no chips)


We requested no chips with the chicken fingers. There is a classic, thick batter on these chicken fingers.

Fish & Chips


​The British style fish and chips comes with thick cut chips (french fries) and battered white fish. 
​
Picture
Fish and Chips ❤︎ Cruise Food Pics

The batter was light and delightfully crunchy after being freshly deep fried - this could be dangerous!

Please note: I saw a review online indicating that the fish is battered in chicken finger batter, which is clearly not British style fish, and I think that must have been an anomaly as we did not experience that at all during our cruise. 

Please try Fish & Ships for yourself, the batter is delicious! :)

Royal Caribbean Fish & Ships Review Independence of the Seas - Is it Worth It?

Absolutely, it's worth it! It's free - how could it not be worth it?! ;p

No, but seriously, Fish & Ships is one of my favorite complimentary dining locations on Royal Caribbean cruise ships. 

Of the chicken fingers, fish, and fried shrimp the fried fish is easily our favorite and the best thing on the Fish & Ships menu, in our opinion.

Fried shrimp take second place, followed by chicken fingers, but I bet all the kiddies love those unlimited chicken fingers and while they do, the parents can enjoy something a bit more "grown up" with the fish and shrimp!

​

Which Royal Caribbean Ships have Fish & Ships?


Fish & Ships is included in your cruise fare and is located on the pool deck of Independence of the Seas and Ovation of the Seas.

I wish more ships had this casual dining option! 

No need to stop the poolside fun when you're hungry, just send a delegate over to Fish & Ships and have a taste of the UK on your cruise! ;)

DIY Air Fryer Fish and Chips | Continente Portugal Frozen Battered Fish Review

7/20/2025

1 Comment

 

If you're looking for solid Fish and Chips in Algarve, I can recommend Lara's Plaice in Albufeira and The Water Dog in Armacao de Pera. Two very different styles and atmospheres, but both yummy and repeatable. 

Unfortunately time, location, and budget won't always permit to go to a fish and chips joint, so the freezer aisle will have to do!

​Continente Filetes de Pescada com Ovo


​We found "fish filets with egg" (filetes de pescada com ovo) at the local Continente and wanted to give them a try in the air fryer.

Ingredients, Cooking Instructions, Nutrition Facts | Continente Egg Battered Fish Fillets

As we were cooking these in the air fryer, we followed the package instructions of cooking the filets without defrosting at 200C (392F) for 11-13 minutes. 

Add to Cart: Beer Battered Fish


The Result: 
​

The result was a tasty, simple fish sandwich dinner perfect for a busy weeknight meal.

We served it on a long fresh baked Portuguese roll called a cacetinho, or french roll, topped with ketchup and iceburg lettuce. Add some french fries (chips for brits) and you're sorted! 
​

Okay obv this isn't the same as a true British Fish + Chips and air frying a battered fish fillet is never going to be the same as deep frying, but still this is a solid option for an easy and quick meal. :)

Lobster Night On A Cruise - SYMPHONY OF THE SEAS REVIEW

3/9/2025

0 Comments

 
 
Day 6 of our  Southern Caribbean Cruise on Symphony of the Seas was a sea day and realizing the cruise was quickly winding down we had a few more spots on the ship to tick off our list before the highly anticipated lobster night on a cruise. 

In This Post:

  • Breakfast at Johnny Rockets
  • Water Slides & Flow Rider
  • El Loco Fresh Mexican
  • The Royal Night Dinner
 


​Breakfast at Johnny Rockets 

Picture
Johnny Rockets on Symphony of the Seas

​Johnny Rockets is a fun old fashioned American Diner styled specialty restaurant on Royal Caribbean cruise ships, but not many people realize that on Oasis Class Ships you can eat breakfast for free at Johnny Rockets! 


​Check out the Johnny Rockets menu on Symphony of the Seas here
​

Coffee and Orange Juice


​They really lean into the old school diner vibes with the plastic coffee mugs and the huge glasses of 'orange juice'. I recommend sharing a glass if you order it as it's just a LOT of juice.  :)

Eggs "My Way"


​Served with potatoes, applewood smoked bacon or sausage and sourdough toast.

Condiments

With our breakfast at Johnny Rockets they served some ketchup for the potatoes, jelly for the toast, and "maple" syrup for the pancakes.

Breakfast and a Show


​We were delighted by the show the Johnny Rockets crew put on during our breakfast! Nothing like a surprise break out into song and dance!

Afternoon Water Slides and Flow Rider


The final sea day on a cruise is a last call to cram in all the fun ship activities you haven't done yet, or haven't done enough because it was so fun. So for us we needed to do some serious waterslide time and some flow rider time. 
​

Racing Water Slides

Here is a good view of all the slides (aside from Ultimate Abyss the dry slide) on Symphony of the Seas. You can see the Blue and Yellow slides which you can race your friends on if you want.

And on the right you can see the green/yellow "toilet bowl" water slide. 
Picture
Symphony of the Seas Dueling Water Slides

The toilet bowl slide


​The toilet bowl slide, as it's affectionally called, drops you into a bowl before you finish the slide and depending on your speed you may loop around the bowl multiple times quickly before finishing the ride. 


And as you can see in these pictures, there is actually a "see-through" section on some of the slides so if you keep an eye out you can catch a glimpse of your loved ones as they shoot down the water slides!
​

Above you can see the splashes are pretty great whether you shoot down the yellow/blue slides or the toilet bowl slide. 

Which would you try?!

Rainbow on a Cruise SHip

We were delighted to catch a rainbow at sea just over the pool deck before grabbing a quick bite for late lunch. 
​

El Loco Fresh Mexican Lunch

El Loco Fresh is a popular Mexican casual dining restaurant on Symphony of the Seas. It's a free restaurant and great for grabbing a quick bite. 


You can grab a quesadilla or premade burrito or you can DIY you own plate with an assortment of rice, meat, beans, taco shells, tortilla chips and so on. 

There is also a bar with lovely fresh toppings including various salsas, pico de Gallo, delicious guacamole, and a huge display of hot sauces. 
​

There is also a section with little desserts like this chocolate cake topped with caramel topped with chocolate mouse that I think would be a great dessert to make for a party in individual cups. A future recreated recipe for Inspired By Travel for sure. 

And they always have plastic cups filled with cut up fruit - watermelon, honeydew, and cantaloupe. This is one of my favorite features of El Loco Fresh.

Pro Tip: I would often grab a cup of fruit and bring it to the fridge of my stateroom and when I wanted a healthy fresh snack I didn't have to go anywhere! :)

After Dinner Drinks at Vintages

If ever there is a night to splash out for a drink on a cruise it's formal night!

​We went to Vintages in Central Park where they have a great collection of scotches to try including Travelers Editions you can only buy or taste on a Royal Caribbean Cruise. 

Picture
Macallan on Royal Caribbean Cruise Ship

And what better way is there to end an evening in a park, on a cruise ship, sipping Macallan and playing chess at this adorable mosaic table?

Celebrity Raw on 5 Menu with prices

2/3/2025

0 Comments

 
 
Order with confidence after I introduce you to all the exotic ingredients on the menu at Raw on 5! ;) 
​
Picture
Raw on 5 Celebrity Ascent
 

What is raw on 5?

Raw on 5 is an upscale, seafood-focused specialty dining restaurant on  Celebrity Cruises.

The name "Raw on 5" comes from its location on Deck 5 of the ship, and the "raw" part refers to its sushi bar and raw seafood offerings like oysters, sashimi, and specialty rolls, if those are your jam.

The concept is pretty chic, offering a variety of high-quality dishes, like nigiri, sushi rolls, and ceviches, all prepared fresh.

If you're a seafood lover looking to indulge in some elegant and creative dining at sea, Raw on 5 is for you! 

But what if you're not into slimy oysters, raw fish on rice, or seafood in general? Don't worry! You can find hot plates sans seafood like Tonkotsu Ramen, Pork Belly Skewers, and Chicken Ginger Gyoza at Raw on 5. 

If you're vegetarian, Edamame and Miso Soup await you! :)

Which Ships have Raw on 5?

Raw on 5 is available on Celebrity Edge Class Ships including Celebrity Edge, Celebrity Apex, Celebrity Ascent, and Celebrity Beyond. 
​
Does Celebrity Xcel have Raw on 5? Great question! Celebrity Xcel will soon join the fleet of Edge Class Ships and while we can assume it will, hang tight for official word. ;)

How much does Raw on 5 cost?

While some Specialty Dining restaurants have a cover charge which allows you to order anything from the menu, others are a la carte style. (Remember our Le Grand Bistro Review?) 

Raw on 5 is a la carte style. This means you order off the menu like any restaurant you are used to on land and pay the price per item.

This can make specialty dining more approachable as you may only want one specific item for $15 and wouldn't find a cover charge of $50 to be worth it.

​On the other hand, some prefer a flat-fee cover charge as they feel more confident to step out of their comfort zone when ordering resting assured they can always add an order of something more "safe" if they don't like their adventurous choice. 

​Let's take a look at the prices on these sample menus!

Rolls & Nigiri - Celebrity Raw on 5 Menu 

Picture
Okay so most of us are probably excited about sushi when we think of dining at Raw on 5. 

How much is the sushi?
With $10 to $16 you can enjoy the classic California Roll elevated with Snow Crab (que fancy!) instead of imitation crab, the Beyond Roll featuring Spicy Tuna and Shrimp Tempura, or even some Nigiri! 
​
Wait. What is Nigiri?
Nigiri is a cute little mound of rice with a slice of raw fish atop. See your sushi emoji's for a visual. ;) 

​I'm looking at these sushi menu options and there literally is not a single item I would not love to try! 

How fun would it be to waltz in and say "I'll take one of each!"

Raw & Barely Dressed ​- CELEBRITY RAW ON 5 MENU 

With the likes of Sashimi, Oysters, and Tiradito, the Raw and Barely Dressed menu is not for the faint of heart. ​
Picture
What is Sashimi?
Sashimi is like Nigiri without rice. So basically a slice of high quality raw fish. 

What is Hamachi Tiradito?
This is an interesting Peruvian dish which highlights Japanese influence in Peru. Hamachi is yellowtail tuna. Tiradito is made with sliced raw fish (in this case yellowtail tuna), sashimi style, and dressed in a spicy citrus outfit.  

Shop: I love Tiradito Tee 
Is Tiradito the same as Ceviche?
Not quite. Ceviche is made of cubed raw fish or other seafood which is marinated in citrus that essentially cures it. On the other hand tiradito is made of slices of raw fish and is dressed in citrus just before serving so it remains totally raw, uncured, bright and fresh. 

I'd say Tiradito and Ceviche are cousins. ​
Picture
Beautiful Ahi Tuna Sashimi at Raw on 5 - Photo Celebrity Cruises
What is Kakiage? It's a tempura Japanese dish. So on Celebrity Beyond you can have shrimp and scallop dipped in tempura batter and deep fried if you order the Shrimp and Scallop Kakiage. That sounds delicious! 

What is Furikake? The Crispy Shrimp are seasoned with Furikake, a Japanese seasoning that is crunchy, salty, and a bit nutty/earthy.  It usually includes dried fish, seaweed, salt and sugar. Furikake apparently means sprinkle in Japanese, as in "to sprinkle", but the seasoning is on the chunky side and really looks like savory sprinkles! 

Try Furikake Here

Hot Plates + Land "Meats" Sea ​- CELEBRITY RAW ON 5 MENU

If you like seafood but just don't really want to do the raw thing, check out the hot plates menu. 
  • Lobster and shrimp wontons? Yes, please. 
  • Spicy Shrimp stir fry? I'm in! 
  • Chicken Ginger Gyoza? Love Gyoza. Remember the Spicy Pork and Kimchi Gyoza?
  • ​Creamy Oysters? I'll probably skip these hehe. 
What is Kushikatsu? It's deep-fried skewered meat and vegetables - yum! 

Pork Belly Skewers - *insert heart eyes emoji* 

Tonkotsu Ramen - happy tears! 

What is Tonkotsu?
Tonkotsu is a super delicious, rich broth made from pork bones. After simmering for a long time the broth becomes creamy and it's the ultimate umami comfort food. Love it so much! 

It originated in Fukuoka, Japan and sometime I'll share some pics of a quick trip we took to Fukuoka! 

​If all these options intimidate you, just order the Chicken Teriyaki or Ribeye Medallions  - you won't miss!

Cocktails & Champagne ​- CELEBRITY RAW ON 5 MENU

The cocktails at Raw on 5 are all crafted on a base of Pure Snow Sake. 

What is Sake?
Sake is Japanese rice wine. 

I've only ever had sake on its own (always served in an adorable tiny cup) so I am really intrigued by these cocktails. 

Here's the order I would try them in:
  1. Tea Leaf - love St. Germain
  2. Gingertini - intrigued by the ginger
  3. Tokyo Rose - Fan of cranberry over here
  4. Snowberry - I have a thing about blue curaçao, idk, not a fan of food coloring I suppose.

RETURN TO TOP ↑

Are cocktails at raw on 5 included in the beverage package?

This is a good question and the answer is yes! But also no. Err.. Sort of.. Probably, maybe, it depends. :p 

Really it depends which drink package you have. 
​
If you have the Classic Drink Package, everything is included up to $10 per drink. 

If you have the Premium Drink Package, everything is included up to $17 per drink. 

Cocktails at Raw on 5 run $12-15. So they are included if you have the premium drink package, but if you have the classic drink package you will need to pay the difference between $10 and the cocktail price. So each drink will cost you an additional $2-5. 

With the Classic package you could enjoy glasses of Snow Maiden Sake ($10), Le Bel Oliver Rosé ($10) or Corte Giara Pinot Grigio ($10) for 'free'. Also feel free to order your favorite classics off menu.

Desserts ​- CELEBRITY RAW ON 5 MENU 

Picture
Things you're probably wondering about on the Dessert Menu at Raw on 5:

What is Yuzu?
Yuzu is not the same as a lemon, but it very much looks like a lemon and is a highly fragrant citrus fruit!

What is Nori?
Nori is dried, edible seaweed. You may be familiar with its use in sushi rolls. Nori is loaded with vitamins and minerals! 

What is Lychee?
Ooo Lychee is such a yummy fruit! They look so exotic on the outside with their bumpy red skin, and inside they are sweet and juicy. They always remind me of a cross between a skinless grape and a pear. 

What is red bean paste?
A lot of asian cultures use red bean paste in their desserts, especially Japan. Made by boiling red beans and mashing them until smooth, the paste can then be sweetened or left as is.

Celebrity's Raw on 5 Review

After doing a deep dive into the menus, I am really impressed with the offerings at Raw on 5. I think Celebrity has done a great job sharing some dishes that adventurous foodie passengers would find exotic and unique while still providing a number of options for their less daring travel buddies! ;) 

I'm looking forward to trying Raw on 5 on my next Celebrity Cruise.
