Unexpectedly, we had an extra night in the WDW area, so we made ressies at Sanaa for a late dinner, Easter week 2017. We like exploring places we've never got to yet at WDW, and we thoroughly loved Sanaa.
The food was amazing! We started with the Indian-style bread service, a fabulous appetizer with 5 types of flatbread and a host of flavorful dipping sauces. Super yummy! We have talked about this app for many days since eating here.
For our entrees, we got the lamb shank, the Braaivleis (a sampling of three grilled meats), the Potjie Inspired (again - choices - we got the braised beef and chickpea wat but this dish can be refashioned many different ways), and the duck. We loved everything. Truly flavorful and very elegant. The veggies and sides were all great too. The four of us ate everything.
We got no dessert, so sorry no info on sweets here.
The service was great, and the decor was beautiful. Very unusual and interesting, with a ceiling of trees and fun artwork.
Fair warning, my family are all fans of Indian food, so we imagined we would like it here. The food had Indian leanings, but was not overwhelmingly unusual or too spicy. The food here should appeal to people who like good food, not just Indian food. To box it in as only Indian cuisine would be a mistake, as it has much broader appeal with elements of African food as well.
Also, this was our first visit to Kidani Village, and we loved it. From Sanaa, there is an outdoor walkway platform ending in an animal-observation area with firepit and rocking chairs. Very fun and relaxing. Lots of animals roam this area (giraffes, wildebeest, etc.) and after dinner the resort brought out night vision scopes to observe the animals in the dark.
We will be back!
