Was surfing around and found this on the DisneyFoodBlog:
Thanks to reader Cliff Yow for the heads up on this awesome new adventure! A new dining experience is available at Disney’s Animal Kingdom Lodge — Dine with an Animal Expert!
Enjoy an exclusive and interactive experience while dining with a Disney Animal Expert at Sanaa, an exotic restaurant offering views of the African savanna. As you immerse yourself in African culture, you’ll get to ask questions of the expert while also learning fascinating facts about the care of savanna’s animals. See the resort’s savanna animals outside the window as you learn special insights into these African creatures.
Dine with Animal Specialists: An Untamed Lunch
Offered at Sanaa every Wednesday, 11:30 am to 1:15 pm, this unique opportunity will appeal to animal enthusiasts.
A four course meal and suitable children’s menu will be served for $49 (10 and older) and $29 (3-9), plus applicable tax and 18% automatic gratuity. $5 of the price will be contributed to Disney’s Worldwide Conservation Fund!
Limited to 12 guests per day; it’s truly a memorable lunch! Currently in a trial phase, it is not available to book online. To determine availability and to book this experience, call 407-938-3000.
Sanaa (Swahili for artwork) recalls the scenes and smells of an East African spice market. On display, handcrafted artworks are to be admired. The cuisine incorporates flavorful spices and cooking methods from Africa. Using tandoor ovens, chefs slow cook specialties with Indian flavors.
It is strongly recommended that participants be over 8 years old.
It looks like a lot of fun! It's sort of like the Animal Kingdom equivalent of "Dining with an Imagineer." Hope it sticks around.
Something to keep in mind if you'll be going to WDW this summer!
ETA: Mods, I was a bit conflicted on where to post this. Feel free to move!
