I'm Just Here for the Food ~ Flame Tree Barbecue

When you start thinking about Walt Disney World, food is one of the first things that comes to mind. There is so much to choose from, and so many good options that we often find ourselves sitting at home thinking about one of the meals we would really like to have.

One of those places is Flame Tree Barbecue at Disney's Animal Kingdom. Its a counter service restaurant that often draws big crowds, and with good reason. Rather than indoors, the seating here is scattered around under shade of trees and canopies as you dine outdoors. Seldom does a meal conclude without visits from ducks as they wander about looking for crumbs, which isn't hard to find as most people will offer them little treats.

I prefer the smoked 1/2 Chicken, they give you plenty of food and its quite good. Another option is a half-slab of St. Louis Ribs or a Beef or Pork Sandwich....mmmm, is your mouth watering yet? All meals come with baked beans and a cornbread muffin and, since I'm on the dining plan, don't forget your Chocolate Cake or Key Lime Pie for desert!!!

Flame Tree is one of the many places I enjoy having lunch while at Walt Disney World, and with good reason, the food is quite good and not to be missed. Of course, they have their days...sometimes the chicken may be a little dry, but all-in-all, I still enjoy it. So how 'bout it? Care for some lunch next time you're at Animal Kingdom? A quick tip to help avoid crowds...try to go around 11:30 or so, before the noon crowd hits at lunchtime.

See ya there, and I hope you're hungry...as you can see by the look on my face, I sure was!!!
