Brooke,
That is the beauty of the buffet at Boma! You get a lot of the traditional buffet standards that we Americans might usually opt for, alongside some exciting new things to try that have an African influence. What is so great is that you can try these newer items, and if you don't like them just get a clean plate and start fresh!
I think that you would be very happy with your dining experience at
Boma, and strongly encourage you to try it out. Also, if you are not staying at the
Animal Kingdom Lodge, make sure you arrive extra early, for two reasons. First, the restaurant is VERY popular, so you want to get there a bit early so that you are seated promptly. But more importantly you want to make sure you get there in time to explore the gorgeous and exotic lobby. And plan on staying afterward to visit the savannah viewing area just off the lobby. The guides there are very informative, and sometimes have night vision goggles you can borrow to get a unique view of the animals!
Have a Delicious Vacation!
