0:10
Today we are at Animal Kingdom Lodge,
0:13
Kadani Village specifically, and this is
0:17
a refresh review at SA. We went several
0:21
years ago. Didn't really know what to
0:24
expect. Had a really great time. and you
0:28
basically eat and can see all the
0:30
animals outside. Mhm.
0:31
Now, we chose lunch today because they
0:34
have, from what we remember, one of the
0:38
best burgers on Disney property. We
0:41
actually didn't order it. Parents
0:43
ordered it. So, we were like, let's go
0:46
back and test the theory again and see
0:48
if it's the best burger on Disney
0:51
property. Plus, you're here with all the
0:52
animals, which this is one of our
0:54
favorite resorts. We have a reservation
0:56
for 12:30, so we've got about an hour
0:59
and then um we'll show you the full
1:01
experience. We'll show you pulling in
1:03
where you can park and do a full review.
1:07
I'm excited. We're out here just staring
1:08
at some of the animals right now.
1:12
Oh, yeah. Maybe. Oh, yeah. And some a
1:16
giraffe
1:18
beast.
1:18
Will the beast and it's nice out. Let's
1:22
go check it out.
1:33
Animal Kingdom Lodge. As always, let
1:35
them know you have a reservation.
1:37
Usually have to show ID.
1:40
It says Chamombo House to the right.
1:43
Donny Village Straight.
1:49
Here
1:58
we have Kadani Village.
2:07
Self parking to the right.
2:17
Self parking straight ahead.
2:20
I remember this now.
2:29
Lobby and restaurant parking to the
2:30
left.
2:33
And parking's free. So, that's a nice
2:35
feature with Disney properties.
2:38
Says elevator to lobby, pool, and
2:41
restaurant. It's going to be this way.
2:44
Oh, right here.
2:48
Right away, we're already greeted with a
2:49
zebra right out here.
2:52
We love Animal Kingdom Lodge. It's so
2:54
cool.
2:58
We've never stayed at the Kadani Village
3:00
side, but we do have a full tour of the
3:02
Jambo House. So, we have like an hour
3:05
before our reservation. So, we're just
3:08
out here checking out all the animals.
3:14
Just love this place. So peaceful.
3:17
Again,
3:19
we're just going to hang out until
3:22
it's time for reservation. We're
3:24
actually going to go down the stairs and
3:26
outside here
3:28
just while we're waiting.
3:32
There's the giraffes.
3:37
Giraff just chilling over there.
3:41
Now, I just checked the app and you can
3:43
check in 20 minutes prior to your
3:45
reservation.
3:47
on the app. So, we'll wait and do that
3:50
when it's time.
3:51
About I don't know 40 minutes maybe. So,
3:54
we'll go in and look at a couple things.
3:57
And just so you know, right when you
3:58
come inside is where the restaurant's
4:00
at.
4:01
Get you a preview of the menu. So, they
4:04
do have breakfast. That's why I don't
4:06
think lunch starts until 11:00.
4:12
There's lunch. Now, they don't have the
4:15
burger for dinner,
4:18
but
4:20
did we get the tandoori chicken last
4:22
time or something? It was good.
4:24
Maybe.
4:25
Uh, the five breads. That's a very
4:28
popular thing to get bread service here.
4:34
That must be dinner. Yeah. See, they
4:35
don't have the burger on the dinner
4:36
menu.
4:40
I don't know if they've got actual
4:41
restrooms in the restaurant, but they do
4:44
have them here at the resort. Look at
4:46
this.
4:51
Just going to do a quick preview up here
4:53
while we're waiting.
4:58
Some items you can look at in the lobby.
5:00
Also plenty of places to
5:03
sit in the lobby and wait for your
5:05
reservation. I like how they have plenty
5:07
of seating out here, so you can just sit
5:09
outside and watch the animals.
5:13
These things cool to read. They do have
5:15
this animal overlook QR code.
5:20
It's currently 12:03, so in about 10
5:23
minutes, we can do the online check-in
5:25
and we will see uh when we can actually
5:27
get in. Hopefully, we get a view right
5:29
next to the window, but regardless,
5:32
you're still able to see the animals.
5:39
It's currently 12:15, so I just checked
5:41
in through the app. They will text us
5:43
when the table is ready. So, we'll
5:46
probably be heading down there pretty
5:47
soon. We're going to go ahead and head
5:49
down that way just so that in case they
5:52
call us or something. I am very excited
5:55
for this burger. Telling you right now,
5:57
hope it's still the best. Oh, here's the
6:00
hours.
6:02
Just going to wait till we get the text.
6:07
just said our table is ready. Got the
6:10
text.
6:12
All right,
6:13
there's a bar through here.
6:19
Oh, maybe we'll get one next to the
6:22
windows.
6:28
This might actually be the exact same
6:30
seat we sat in last time. So, we're
6:32
right here. We either set in this one or
6:34
that one.
6:39
They sure decorated it and themed it
6:42
awesome in here. Um, but
6:46
it's right out those windows.
6:48
Animals.
6:55
Nice.
6:57
Did already show the menu, but
7:01
show it again.
7:03
Nice little descriptions of everything
7:05
here.
7:08
Of course, the bread service,
7:10
appetizers.
7:14
Choose one from the journey and one from
7:16
the harvest.
7:18
Oh, that's what we did, I think, maybe
7:21
last time.
7:22
Sol. That's where it's at.
7:29
And then, of course, the drink menu.
7:35
And there should be an annual passholder
7:37
discount at this one.
7:41
They got the mango lassi here.
7:45
Those are good.
7:51
And then the cast member helping us said
7:53
this is one of her top five favorite
7:55
burgers on Disney property. She
7:57
mentioned a couple others. one at the
7:59
new Polynesian Tower, one at the Riviera
8:03
Pool Bar restaurant, and then I
8:07
mentioned the what it is. It is
8:09
Steakhouse 71, right? That's where we
8:10
went at the uh Contemporary Resort. That
8:13
one was also good. But I'm going to see
8:15
if this is the best one. I mean, last
8:17
time, what was it 2 years ago or
8:19
something? 3 years ago, it was good, but
8:22
we had not tried all the burgers that
8:23
we've tried now. Timber, what did you
8:24
get? Some kind of lamb thing.
8:26
Lamb. My dad got a burger and then you
8:28
got the
8:28
chicken tandoori.
8:30
Chicken tandoori. Yeah, she or Yeah,
8:32
tandoori chicken. She said it was spicy
8:34
though, right? So, she put the sauce on
8:36
the side. Water.
8:40
Disney always has good water. I did just
8:43
look at the previous video we did it and
8:44
we were sitting at that table right
8:46
behind us by this tree. And here is that
8:49
burger. You get some chips. I'm very
8:52
excited for it.
8:54
Nice presentation here. Then your lamb
8:58
kefta
8:59
kefta.
9:00
It's interesting.
9:02
And your tandoori.
9:06
That looks good.
9:08
And then your
9:10
waiting on the burger. There's the
9:12
burger. All right.
9:16
I'm going to load some stuff on it here,
9:17
but I'm going to eat it plain first.
9:21
Should be just another minute. cook your
9:24
burger. All right. We're doing all
9:25
right.
9:26
Doing good. Thank you.
9:30
I mean, that's still still a really good
9:34
burger. Um,
9:37
it's for sure top five.
9:40
Let me eat some more on it and see if it
9:42
goes up in the ranking. But for Disney
9:45
property, stinking good burger, at least
9:48
a top five. Could go higher. But that's
9:49
a one bite. Let's try a chip over here.
9:57
What is the green stuff? Is that the
10:00
cheese?
10:01
Spicy.
10:02
Timber said hers is stinking good as
10:04
well. So, let's try that.
10:09
Yeah,
10:10
Timber, you're right. That's stinking
10:12
good.
10:13
Wow.
10:14
But it is messy. It's a messy burger.
10:17
Oh,
10:19
the tandoori chicken. Chicken tendor is
10:21
the lamb.
10:23
Here it is. Man, that's like a
10:26
Mediterranean.
10:29
That's good.
10:31
Juicy.
10:32
Great burger here. So, we did the video
10:36
June 15th of 2022, I believe, and the
10:40
quality is still here. It's not lost
10:42
quality. Everything's great. No
10:44
complaints here at the table. The chips
10:47
kind of have like a plantainish
10:49
taste to them, which is good. That was
10:52
excellent. I do believe they have
10:54
dessert. I did not see it on the menu,
10:56
though. Uh maybe maybe it's online.
11:00
Desserts.
11:27
We went with the ankoli cake. I will say
11:29
it's only taken 30 minutes, so very
11:31
quick service here. Here's a look at the
11:33
ankoli cake. That's cool. Very unique.
11:38
Here we go.
11:42
It's all right. The cake's all right.
11:45
It's like a spice cake.
11:47
Part of the antler.
11:50
Hold on. I think there's something in
11:51
the Yeah, there's something in the
11:52
middle.
11:54
I think that's like the citrus herd or
11:57
whatever.
11:59
Very citrusy. I think the cake's okay.
12:01
I'd probably try something different
12:03
next time, but at least we tried it. The
12:05
final look at the bill. We all got
12:07
waters, so that saves some money.
12:09
took about $9 off.
12:14
And there's the total bill right there.
12:16
87.22.
12:18
Now we're going to be heading back out.
12:24
Another look at the bar area.
12:27
Just heading back to the car.
12:31
That was our trip out to SA here at
12:33
Animal Kingdom Lodge. It was good.
12:35
Mhm.
12:36
Still a top five burger. I I don't know
12:38
if I can rank it any higher than top
12:40
five cuz because I'd have to
12:42
variables come into play.
12:43
Yeah. And I'd have to eat them all at
12:45
once. So, it's hard to remember some of
12:46
the other ones, but very good burger.
12:49
The cast member was great. She also
12:50
agreed it's a great burger and um it's
12:53
nice to see the animals and be out here
12:54
and walk around. So, if you've never
12:56
been, would highly recommend it.
12:58
Highly recommend my appetizer.
13:00
Yours was good. So, anyh who, hope you
13:02
enjoyed this video. With that being
13:04
said, that does it for today. Thanks for
13:06
watching.
