    • Animal Kingdom Morning Touring

      Posted at 10:32 am by taryngirl, on February 23, 2019

      8/17/18

      Our plan was to be up and out of the room early today, but we got a late start!  We got to the bus stop at 9:20 a.m. and ended up not getting to Animal Kingdom until 10:20.  There were 4 scooters waiting to get on!  So we missed our Safari FastPass+.

      We did make it to our second FastPass+, Dinosaur!  This is my favorite ride in AK.

      I think Kaylee is screaming in Alex’s ear here…hahahahaha.

      fullsizeoutput_2be5

      Donald’s Dino-Bash was happening while we were there.  The whole land is transformed into a celebration.  There are special character spots with Launchpad McQuack and others!

      Kinsey had her very first meet and greet ever with Pocahontas!  She spent several minutes with her.  It was very special!  These are all PhotoPass pictures.

      We stopped to enjoy It’s Tough to be a Bug on the way over to Pandora.  This can be scary for little kids believe it or not.  At one point it gets pitch black while spiders descend from the ceiling and smoke blows into the room!

      From there we headed over to Pandora for our Flights of Passage FastPass+.  Sadly I don’t ride this because of my motion sick issues.

      I spent some time watching this man in the utility suit while I waited.

      This is one of my favorite backdrops for pictures!  It’s become a tradition now so I take pictures of my daughters here each time.

      Lunch was of course at my favorite Satul’i Canteen.

      fullsizeoutput_2c01

      Cheeseburger Steamed Pod (Kid’s Meal)–Steamed Cheeseburger Pod stuffed with Ground Beef, Ketchup, Mustard, Pickle and Cheddar Cheese served with Vegetable Chips and Grapes.  It also comes with a drink (not pictured).

      We cut this and shared it amongst everyone.  It’s very good!  It’s a nice little appetizer.

      fullsizeoutput_2c03

      Chopped Wood Grilled Chicken Bowl–Choice of base (I did rice!), wood grilled chicken, vegetable slaw, with your choice of sauce.

      This is my go to and one of my favorite quick service meals in all of Disney!  I say this in every trip report, but it’s a nice change from the regular offerings.

      fullsizeoutput_2c04

      I always get all 3 sauces and mix them together in my bowl!

      fullsizeoutput_2c05

      Chili Garlic Shrimp Bowl–Shrimp tossed in chili garlic sauce with noodles and vegetable slaw

      This is a little bit spicy!  Spicier than anyone was anticipating.  But still good!

      fullsizeoutput_2c06

      Slow Roasted Sliced Grilled Beef Bowl–Slow roasted marinated beef with choice of base and vegetable slaw with bobos.

      The inside of the restaurant:

      This was my first time watching UP!  A Great Bird Adventure Show since it changed from Flights of Wonder.  I reallllly loved the Flights of Wonder show.  I think it was an often forgot about experience in Animal Kingdom.

      fullsizeoutput_2c08

      The new show was okay.  It wasn’t my favorite though!  Some of the elements were the same as the old show.  And some were new.  I encourage you to check it out at least once!

    • March Disney World AEP Trip {Day 5}! Part 2–Satu’li Canteen and Mobile Ordering

      Posted at 7:57 pm by taryngirl, on August 1, 2018

      DID YOU KNOW…that for some Quick Service restaurants throughout Walt Disney World, you can order ahead?  This fantastic service is called MOBILE FOOD AND BEVERAGE ORDERING!  (You can read all about it directly through that link that takes you to Disney’s official page.)

      Basically, instead of waiting in line, you can go onto your My Disney Experience App,

      This is the menu shown outside of the restaurant:

      IMG_2338

      The restaurant itself does have both indoor and outdoor seating.  One note, there are signs on the tables stating you must be a patron of the restaurant in order to use the tables.  So don’t plan on getting a table and sitting there while you wait for the rest of your party who is riding Flight of Passage.

      We stood outside the restaurant and used the My Disney Experience App to order our food. We walked in immediately.  When entering, just look for the separate Mobile Order Pick Up window.  YOU DO NOT HAVE TO WAIT IN THE REGULAR LINE!  There was only one person in front of us in this line.

      IMG_0600

      If you didn’t order ahead, this is what the line looked like:

      IMG_0599

      What you can’t see is that the line snaked and then went out into the foyer area of the restaurant.  SO WORTH ORDERING AHEAD!  You can save so much time.

      Confession time…I was skeptical.  I always have modifications, no this, extra this, etc. etc.  You can still modify with the app! 

      Now to the good stuff…the delicious food!  I ordered the Chopped Wood-Grilled Chicken Bowl with Rice and Creamy Herb Dressing and NO Boba Balls!  This is also served with Crunchy Vegetable Slaw.  I also asked for all three sauces on the side when I got up to the window.  The other two sauces are the Black Bean Vinaigrette, and the Charred Onion Chimichurri.  I mixed all three together in the bowl and it was SO GOOD.  I will definitely eat here again and I will definitely order this exact same thing!

      My friend ordered the Kid’s Meal–Cheeseburger Steamed Pod which is served with Chips and a drink.IMG_0595

      My other friend ordered the Combination Bowl:  Grilled Beef and Chicken with Rice base and the Chimichurri Sauce.

      IMG_0597

      They each also ordered a dessert.  This is the Chocolate Cake (chocolate cake with a crunchy cookie layer and banana cream topping).  We all tasted it.  It was really good and super rich!

      IMG_0596

      The other dessert was the Blueberry Cream Cheese Mousse.  (blueberry cream cheese mousse with passion fruit curd)  I didn’t try this one, but they said it was good!

      I have eaten here on a past trip as well.  These are some pictures of food my group ordered during that trip. 

      Chopped Wood-Grilled Chicken with Romaine and Kale Salad Base.

      IMG_0236

      Regular order of the Cheeseburger Pods served with Chips.

      Overall, this quick service restaurant is one of my favorites!  Be sure to give it a try at least once.

      Up next…Cruising on Royal Caribbean’s Grandeur of the Seas!
