Disney’s Animal Kingdom has been a bit of a zoo recently (ha, get it?)!
As temperatures rise ahead of the summer months, wait times have also been increasing around the parks — and Animal Kingdom is certainly not immune to the crowds! With so much to see and do, it’s really no wonder why so many fans are flocking to the popular park — so let’s take a look at what’s new at Disney’s Animal Kingdom!
Animal Kingdom Food Updates
Tiffins
In Animal Kingdom food news, you can now get the 50th Anniversary Pork Belly from Tiffins at Nomad Lounge!
We spotted it on the menu on a recent trip, and it’s listed on the mobile menu as well.
We’ve tried this dish at Tiffins before, and when we did, we thought it was EXCELLENT!
