After breakfast I spent the whole morning at AK, and got a lot done. I rode Kilamanjaro Safari, saw Festival of the Lion King, and spent some time at Rafiki's Planet Watch.
I had a 12:00 lunch ADR at Yak and Yeti, but due to a 1:00 showing of Flights of Wonder I hoped to see, I decided to head to the restaurant earlier then that to see if I could be seated sooner.
The restaurant was not busy at all, though it was still pretty early for lunch, but both times I ate here it wasn't really all that crowded. Needless to say, I was seated immediatly.
I was seated upstairs right between the wall and the staircase. It was actually a pretty nice seat, since there were only a few tables there, and there was plenty of elbow room.
My server today was Jay, and he was nice and very attentive.
For my appetizer I decided to try the lettuce cups.
First of all, this was a huge serving, and would of been enough for a meal by itself. The chicken filling was flavorful, I really liked it with the carrots and the bean sprouts. Rolling them up and dipping them in dressing was very difficult, and pretty messy, and I hate eating that way in public. At home I don't care, because there's no one watching, but since I was in a restaurant, I ended up making it into like a salad, so I could eat it with a knife and fork.
Based on reviews I had read here I knew I wanted to try the ribs for my entree.
Very good ribs! They were covered in an hoisin-bbq sauce, and were very tasty. (Though I must admit that I think I liked the steak and shrimp I'd had last time just a smidge better.) This was a very large portion as well, and even without completely gnawing all the bones to get off every last piece of meat, (which I do at home, but won't do in public, since like the lettuce cups, it's just too messy.) Even so, I was only able to eat about half of them.
For dessert I was tempted to get the cream cheese wontons again, since I'd liked them so much before, but the thought of such a heavy dessert made me think about it, and I decided to get the sorbet trio, since that seemed like it would be much more refreshing.
There were mango, lemon, and raspberry sorbets. The lemon was all right, but I really liked the raspberry and mango ones.
Coming up next - Boma.
