$8 for a trio of dips and chips?
$18 for tempera shrimp?
Are they out of their minds!?!
That seems reasonable. If I belly up to the bar at Applebees I'll pay about that for chips and queso.

Just to check since I was curious. In Mexico at Epcot, chips and guacamole at La Cantina de San Angel is $10.75 and you dont get queso or salsa.
I stand by my thoughts ... it isnt that crazy.
Yes, I curious to hear reports from cruisers to see if they are eliminating the free options. Same with the ice cream. Is there still soft serve now that the Dream has the new for-pay gelato shop?
I guess the issue I have is - when I go into the bar, and want a little something to hold me over until I can get to dinner, I usually only get like 4/5 chips and tablespoon of salsa, maybe 5/6 celery & carrots with, again, a small amount of blue cheese dip.Just to check since I was curious.

I don't want a whole little meal just before (or just after) my main meal.
$8.00 seems pricey for a small snack. And I certainly don't want to pay that for something larger that's going to interfere with my dinner enjoyment.
I'm not upset, I just feel that a snack is something small. If I order something that I'm paying extra for, I'd expect it to be more than I would want for a little something to hold me over to dinner.I am lost...
So you are upset that they are charging for a snack you feel is too large and would spoil your dinner?
Actually been reported that the self-serve soft serve is still available on the Dream.maybe no more ice cream on demand
Thank you, and thank the pixie dust that's still working!Actually been reported that the self-serve soft serve is still available on the Dream.
Yes they are, read on to find out why...$8 for a trio of dips and chips?

I can see a few bucks as noted on the gelato menu. That is reasonable for a one off treat.OMG...Disney is out of there minds.... at least the "up charge" items on NCL are reasonably priced.
But you didn't spend a few grand to get there to do it.That seems reasonable. If I belly up to the bar at Applebees I'll pay about that for chips and queso.
Minor correction - Palo is now $30. One of the recent changesPALO reservations are $25 per person.
Agree. $8 is not an up charge. That is what chips and dip cost at a restaurant on land. And they use to put out the chips and dip for free so they are not adding anything. They are taking something away that use to be free and now charging for it.I think comparing a cruise upcharge to a land based full priced restaurant is apples to oranges. Dinner at Palo's on land would not be $30. So for chips and dip to be 1/4 the price of Palo's dinner or a slider, of any type, to be half the cost of Palo's dinner is out there IMO. This is "snacks" we are talking about.

It's fine that you feel that it's worth the extra cost. I don't think it is. Both valid opinions.

Isn't it 35$ now? And 85$ for Remy? I thought I saw those prices on the website...
