Lets talk about a hidden jewel right in Magic Kingdom! This is one restaurant that I am literally kicking myself that we hadn't explored before! Jungle Navigation Co. Ltd. Skipper Canteen! Across the walkway from the Jungle Cruise, this Jem is hidden, looks small from the outside, but looks deceive!
The charisma and enthusiasm from the Jungle Cruise, continues here for your meals! It's almost like the jokes traveled for Niles and Niles and Niles, and if you don't believe me you are in Denial! (My daughters favorite joke!)
Dinner service was wonderful. This is a One table service meal if you are on the Disney Dining Plan. Well worth it! My husband didn't have too hard of a time finding himself a steak to enjoy!
For his entrée that evening, he ordered Dr. Falls Signature Grill Steak ~ A marinated New York Strip steak, with jasmine rice, braised black beans and bacon, and a side of cherry tomatoes (grilled). The steak was tender and easy to slice into at it immediately arrived at our table.
Dr. Falls Grilled Steak - $35.00 On the Menu
Quick Sand - $8.00 On the Menu
For myself, I enjoyed a taste of Lamb, which only at Disney on the dining plan do I adventure after and enjoy this delicious dish! Baa Baa Berber Lamb Chops were medium rare, and very tender, almost fall off the bone! The roasted carrot puree was a delicate touch to enjoy! This was served with a cauliflower and arugula salad with a citrus dressing.
Baa Baa Berber Lamb Chop - $28.00 On the Menu
For dessert, and for a change I took the chocolate cake, Kungaloosh! This is an African Inspired cake with caramelized bananas served with Cashew Carmel ice cream with a dusting of coffee dust. Amazing, moist and the flavor combination sent my taste buds into a food coma!
Kungaloosh - $8.00 On the Menu
This meal was definitely one of my top 5 on this last trip! I couldn't have enjoyed it more. Don't make the same mistake that we made and push off trying this!
Now on the kids side, I can not answer as to what was available since we were having an adult dinner, but the kiddos at the table next to me had steak, plain with vegetables. I am thinking, that's a pretty good meal! As always, you can explore the menu on My Disney Experience or on the Disney website yourself to make sure that there is something for everyone, but I suggest exploring instead and taking that chance! https://disneyworld.disney.go.com/dining/magic-kingdom/jungle-navigation-skipper-canteen/menus/dinner/
Enjoy your next visit to the jungle!
