Day 3/Animal Kingdom & DTD - February 13th 2014

For breakfast this morning it was over to AKL for Boma! It brought back great memories of our 1 night stay at Kidani Village and it was great to see the resort again.

The restaurant was beautiful and quiet and the service good. The juice they serve is lovely too! There was a great choice of traditional and African cuisine.

(note, not all of these were actually eaten at once. Eyes too big for my belly syndrome!)

And before we left, the waitress brought us this:

And a rousing chorus of happy birthday was sung.

I really enjoyed Boma and would love to go back again next time! The food was excellent.

Great

After breakfast Mum went to sort out the scooter business whilst I browsed the gift shop and brought a pin and a small bag of pretzels- which I only ate about a quarter of and then lost until Mum finally found them lurking in the bottom of a carrier bag a few weeks back. They were still crispy too! Sadly I lost the pin.

After we sorted the scooter out we went to Animal Kingdom, where we had Yak & Yeti Local Foods Cafe for lunch. I had always wanted to try this, and on the DDP it was a great opportunity. And we weren't disappointed!

I had the Honey Chicken with a cup of frozen lemonade for dessert, plus a cup of drink I switched for water. Mum had the sweet and sour chicken with chocolate mousse for dessert.

For my snack credit I had the big soft mickey pretzel. It was delicious! Sadly I couldn't finish it.

After AK we drove back to our resort and took the bus to DTD- big mistake!

Dinner that night was at Raglan Road which we honestly wished we had cancelled after waiting 30 minutes to be seated and a lot of other problems.

We were seated far away from the stage which was a shame. I did after finishing my meal go up and watch the performers though and they were very good!

Foodwise, we were brought the soda bread with the Guinness reduction, which was very nice and then I had the burger:

And for dessert I had the meringue pie, which I didn't enjoy because it was very soft not hard like I was expecting:

And Mum had the steak, which was very overcooked and then we had a lot of drama about it with them not replacing it until I had nearly finished.

Eventually she got this salad and salmon:

And then for dessert got this pear tart:

Overall I enjoyed most of my meal but Mum didn't. (as she keeps reminding me, especially as I write this)

My rating:
Good

Mum's rating:
Dreadful

To be continued.....

Great reviews! Too bad about the steak at RR. My DH had a terrible steak there 3 years ago. However everything else there is quite amazing we have had over the years.

Hmm, looks like it was just the steak, because I certainly did enjoy my main meal. Thanks for reading!

You're welcome!

Baked beans are a part of a good cooked breakfast here and also nice on toast for lunch.
