Ever since the parks reopened, we’ve slowly begun to see more offerings return.
Animal Kingdom Lodge
The resorts reopened one by one and many restaurants opened their doors once again after being closed for months. We’re still in the progress of getting some of our favorites back, and today we learned about another one returning soon!
On February 17th, the beloved restaurant Jiko — The Cooking Place will be reopening at Disney’s Animal Kingdom Lodge — Jambo House. Here, you’ll find “flavors of African, Indian, and Mediterranean cuisine” as you dine in an upscale setting.

Upon reopening, there will be some great menu items to try, like the Seafood Tangine. It’s made with prawns, scallops, squid, and Littleneck clams, so you seafood lovers will be over the moon! And for dessert, there’s the returning favorite, Kilimanjaro. According to Disney, it’s made with “decadent dark chocolate mousse, pistachio financier, pink peppercorn meringue, cacao nib crunch, and ras el hanout pineapples.” Wow, our mouths are watering already!
