As you explore the diverse landscapes of the park, prepare to embark on a culinary journey that mirrors the epic adventures of Simba and his friends. At Discovery Island, treat yourself to The Simba—a mango-flavored slushy jazzed up with grenadine and gummy candies—at the Eight Spoon Café, or indulge in Timon’s Luau at the Isle of Java. This dessert, inspired by Timon’s memorable hula dance, layers vanilla chiffon with passion fruit curd and guava jam, topped with vanilla chantilly cream, an edible tropical flower, and mint.
Not to be missed, Tiffins Restaurant offers a feast for the senses with Rafiki’s Squash Banana shake and the “Remember Who You Are” dessert—a luxurious Kenyan coffee mousse filled with caramelized bananas and chai chantilly, sure to delight any palate.
Venturing into Africa, cool off with the Zazu Ice Cream Sandwich at Tamu Tamu Refreshments or the “You Follow Old Rafiki” Cheesecake at Harambe Market, a delectable fusion of passion fruit, mango, and a coconut-lime crust.
In DinoLand U.S.A., the Shenzi Strawberry Lemonade and the Rightful Ruler Cupcake await to quench your thirst and satisfy your sweet tooth, with inspirations drawn from the film’s iconic characters. And don’t miss the Zazu DOLE Whip Lime and Coconut Float at Trilo-bites—a refreshing concoction perfect for those warm summer days.
Throughout the park, keep an eye out for the adorable Simba Paw Cookie available at various outdoor food carts. It’s a treat for the taste buds and too cute to resist.
