Disneys Animal Kingdom

Not only did we find a purse living in the future, but we also tried a must-have summer snack! Check out what we found in Animal Kingdom this week!

Animal Kingdom Food Updates

This week we ordered the plant-based Chili-Spiced Crispy Fried Tofu Bowl for $12.99 at Satu’li Canteen, which is crispy fried tofu seasoned with chili-spice, topped with crunchy vegetable slaw and boba balls, served with your choice of base and sauce. We chose the red and sweet potato hash base with the plant-based charred green onion vinaigrette. A Cast Member let us know that this vinaigrette once contained honey, but at this time it no longer does.

The only other base that is plant-based at Satu’li Canteen is the rice and beans, so this is a great option for people with plant-based diets! You can find Satu’li Canteen in Pandora.

Check out our recent review of Satu’li Canteen here!

Caravan Road was open for day two of a soft opening, and we tried the Watermelon Shaved Ice for $4.99. We really enjoyed how this tasted like real watermelon juice without being overly sweet.

Watermelon Shaved Ice at Caravan Road!

Caravan Road is a spot that you won’t always find open in Animal Kingdom, but shaved ice, like their Mango Passion Fruit Shaved Ice, can be a delicious and refreshing treat on a hot summer day!
