Tusker House closed

[SillyOldBear]

and I wanted to find out--where else would I be able to get a friend chicken sandwich.

I have to say, I am more disappointed about Tusker House being closed in September than Spaceship Earth.

There are already few places to eat there. We do Tusker House 1 day and Flame Tree another.

Must say...DH is quite :( unhappy about the Tusker House closure. I will miss it as well but he really looks forward to eatingthere each trip. :mickey:

Tusker House being closed in September (before Yak and Yeti is even open) is making us want to spend even less time in AK. As in hitting the few major attractions and then getting out before lunchtime. Flame Tree is good, but with only three CS places being open at that time I'd hate to see the lines at the counters.

I'm disappointed that Tusker House is going to be closed too; it is one of the places that I was looking forward to eating at! It's too bad that Animal Kingdom has so few CS restaurants.

I just read on my Disney Link that Tusker house will reopen as a TS buffet restaurant with A Donald Safari Character Breakfast. It does not say when this will happen.:mickey:

Tusker House is my fave CS at AK! Can't believe it will be closed while we're there!:( Guess we'll have to go to another park/resort for lunch that day.

I read they are going to a TS buffet also. It says there will a Donald Safari breakfast. Do you think this will take the place of Breakfastasaurus or be in addition to? If it is in addition to the Breakfastasaurus, why another Donald meal in the same park???

My DH and I just discovered this gem at AK last year and are very sad:( we will no longer have it as an option. Without a decent CS restaraunt, there really isn't any reason to stay past lunch. Hit the Highlights and go to another park.

where else would I be able to get a fried chicken sandwich.


Thanks :)

I'm just curious to know exactly what a "friend" chicken sandwich is. :confused:

I'm not 100% sure, but I believe Pizzafari (sp?) might have fried chicken sandwiches.
