A Foodie’s Guide to Animal Kingdom

Animal Kingdom has some fun food options, especially with the new World of Pandora. Here are a few of my favorites that you need to grab during your day at Animal Kingdom.

Night Blossom Drink – Pongu Pongu
First up is World of Pandora. This quick eats stand is located right outside of the Windtraders store. This slushie drink is non-alcoholic and is great for a hot day. A little tart, but sweet too. Boba beads adorn the top.

Pineapple Lumpia – Pongu Pongu
Also at Pongu Pongu, grab this delicious pineapple egg roll. It is filled with pineapple, cream cheese, fried and dipped in sugar.

Cheeseburger Pods – Satu’li Canteen
Right next to Pongu Pongu is a quick service restaurant with indoor seating. There are a few delicious bites to grab here, starting with the Cheeseburger Pods. These are a dumpling shaped bread with a cheeseburger inside. Available in kids meal and adult meal size.

Blueberry Cream Cheese Mousse – Satu’li Canteen
This is my favorite dessert in the park. I could literally eat five a day. It is a melt in your mouth blueberry cheesecake yummy mousse goodness.

Pandoran Sunrise – Satu’li Canteen
This drink is also available at Satu’li Canteen. This delicious blend of tropical goodness is non-alcoholic and I personally like it better than the night blossom.

Tree of Life Cupcake – Starbucks
Head to Starbucks (follow the signs to World of Pandora) and check out their seasonal cupcake. When we visited, it was a pumpkin spice Tree of Life cupcake.

Simba Sunset – Tamu Tamu
A dole whip is always a must have on your trip to Disney. Animal Kingdom offers a Dole Whip with a twist. It is a large Pineapple Dole Whip with watermelon, coconut, and strawberry syrup. SO good.

Mini Mango Pie – Yak & Yeti Quick Service
Available at both Yak & Yeti restaurants (there is a table service and a quick service) this delicious pie is a must have. It is my second favorite dessert after the Blueberry Cheesecake.

Baked Mac & Cheese with Pulled Pork – Flame Tree BBQ
Saved the best for last, this meal is the most delicious in the park. Baked macaroni and cheese topped with pulled pork, onion rings, and coleslaw.
