Disney’s Animal Kingdom Theme Park is probably my go-to for food at the Disney Parks, and starting on Oct. 11, there will be something new available for everyone in your party, even including those picky eaters! Keep reading to see what’s coming soon!
At Harambe Market, there is a new variety of rice bowls – the Chicken and Shrimp Rice Bowl, Chicken Rice Bowl, and Shrimp Rice Bowl. These all feature jollof rice with kachumbari tomato salad and tzatziki sauce and you can choose between chermoula-marinated chicken, peri peri-marinated shrimp, or both. There’s also a kid’s version available – the Shrimp and Rice Bowl with peri peri-marinated shrimp, white rice, and a Cuties Mandarin Orange.
There is a new Beef and Lamb Kofta Pita made of house-made beef and lamb kofta with a yummy tzatziki sauce, chermoula, and house-made chips. There is also a plant-based option with the IMPOSSIBLE Kofta Pita. Featuring IMPOSSIBLE kofta accompanied by a plant-based aïoli, chermoula, and house-made chips, it sounds delicious!
I’m most looking forward to the Harambe Salad with Chicken with chermoula-marinated chicken with quinoa, grilled corn, black-eyed peas, and crispy chickpeas topped with a tasty chermoula-herbed vinaigrette. The salad is also available with Shrimp!
The brand-new Mango Passion Fruit Cheesecake looks so good! We can’t wait to try it!
One of the most interesting offerings is the Stuffed Pancake Sandwich, filled with sausage, guava paste, egg, and cheese. You can get this breakfast sandwich without the guava as well! This new item will be available for breakfast at Drinkwallah, Pongu Pongu, Trek Snacks, and select outdoor vending carts.
Over at Kusafiri Coffee Shop & Bakery, the menu for breakfast will feature the Egg and Bacon Croissant Sandwich with Tomato Pepper Relish. This item features a croissant with a cheese omelet, crispy bacon, and tomato-pepper relish served with potato barrels. Also for breakfast is the Breakfast Totchos with Eggs, Bacon, and Cheese. It combines potato barrels, scrambled eggs, nacho cheese sauce, cheese curds, and crumbled bacon.
The plant-based IMPOSSIBLE Gatsby fills a pita pocket with plant-based picadillo, tomato-pepper relish, and crispy potato sticks and tops it off with a plant-based aïoli. The Harissa Chicken Wrap has harissa chicken salad with vegetables and an avocado spread rolled in a spinach tortilla. Both items are served with house-made potato chips.
Pongu Pongu will also have another item joining the menu, a new Cinnamon Roll!
At Flame Tree Barbecue, make sure to try the IMPOSSIBLE Burnt Ends paired with french fries and coleslaw on the side. If you’re looking for more of a snack, try the French Fries with Pulled Pork and Cheese!
Pizzafari has a plant-based item, Plant-based Italian Sausage served alongside a side salad with Italian dressing. If you’re looking for another side option to pair with any of the tasty items already on the menu at this location, the Antipasto Side Salad will soon be available to complete your meal.
Our last stop is Tamu Tamu Refreshments, featuring the DOLE Whip Orange Soda Float with strawberry syrup on top. If you’re over the age of 21, there will be a new DOLE Whip Hard Cider Float featuring DOLE Whip and ACE Pineapple Craft Cider!
