Hi, Michelle!
Welcome back to the Disney Parks Moms Panel! I've had the pleasure of dining at
Tiffins twice and have loved the variety of foods offered in this unique dining venue located just outside the entrance to the all-new land, Pandora- The World of Avatar. I'm glad you've planned to dine there and take advantage of the
Rivers of Light Dining Package during your day at Disney's Animal Kingdom! You'll enjoy having the opportunity to see the show with the preferred seating location.
Your son's eating habits sound very familiar to me as my son is also very basic when it comes to his meals. I'm always encouraging him to try new things especially when we travel, but so far, no luck! After he turned 10, I was worried about dining at Walt Disney World since he doesn't eat a lot and an entreé from the kids' menu is typically what appeals to him. I quickly realized the Cast Members were super accommodating, and it was perfectly fine for him to continue to order off the kids' menu even though he was over the age of 10. When you visit Tiffins, go over both Prix Fixe menus with him and let him order what sounds good! There are often times I like to simplify my selection by leaving something out or having a sauce put on the side so please don't hesitate to ask if modifications can be made.
Michelle, I hope you have the most magnificent time dining at Tiffins! The attention to detail in this museum like restaurant with its Asian and African decor is pretty spectacular. Be sure to take some time to explore the galleries to learn about how Disney's Animal Kingdom was designed by the Disney Imagineers!
Have a magical time and enjoy!
Nancy
