Today was Animal Kingdom day and for some reason DH doesn’t like this park all that much. I mean he wants to spend maybe 3 hours here then bounce. But I begged for us to spend at least a whole day here so that we wouldn’t have to come back the rest of the week. So he gave me that. See, we are a very compromising couple!
The only thing he asked was that we don’t waste our credits towards food there, and that we pay OOP for a counter service. I don’t know why he didn’t want to try Tusker House or Yak & Yeti. Are these places good for lunch???
So we decide to check out Flame Tree BBQ. We liked what we saw, the cast member said that the pork sandwich was the best thing on the menu, so we took two orders.
The Pork Sandwiches are served with baked beans (8.49) and we ordered a side of onion rings (3.79) and a coke (2.49). Wait, don’t we get 2 snacks a day per person? Duh, why didn’t I get my coke as a snack?? So DH got his sprite as a snack…man, sometimes I just don’t think! This is yet ANOTHER reoccurring situation. Lol! Our sandwiches were really good suprisingly! We expected subpar theme park food, but it was nice and hot and bbq-ey! The onion rings were outrageously good! They didn't fall apart when you took a bit into it and they weren't too greasy! A definite plus!
Yup, one picture…I mean really though, how many different shots and angles can I get of a pork sandwich? With beans? So I decided to take a picture of the cup to please you folks!
(Insert the ooohh’s and ahhh’s here)
Heads up…the seating area is swarming with these types of birds…
So if you’re scared of birds…oh well…you’re in the Animal Kingdom for goodness sake!
And just to show you how big these birds can stand, lookie here!
Look at that those people feeding the birds! “Feed the birds, tuppance a bag, that’s what she cries..” Since you’re all Disney freaks like me, you should know where this one is from, right?
Oh and literally a few seconds after I took this shot (sorry for the crappy pic of my DH saying I Love You…no he really wasn’t saying that...in fact quite the opposite lol…look at the hatred in his eyes), that same women that was feeding the creatures, starts FREAKING out because the birds were swarming her table!
Let’s look at that pic again, shall we???
If you feed one bird, more will come! DUH!
I think after this recession is dunzo, Disney should hire cast members to just walk around the picnic areas scolding guests that feed the animals! What do you think?? I know such a bad idea, but those “Don’t feed the animals” signs aren’t doing much…drastic measures must be taken…
So I’m sorry for this short and rather dull update…it’s a counter service you know what I’m saying? So the total here with 2 pork sandwiches, 1 soda, and 1 side of onion rings comes out to 24.78 with tax. Not too shabby right?
You’ve just been Leshafaced!
