- In today's vlog we head to Disney's Animal Kingdom Lodge for the all new Lion King prix fixe dinner menu in celebration for the Lion King movie. This dinner includes a starter, a main, a dessert and some special treats at the end, even some tea to take home. We started with a clam and bone marrow dish, which was surprisingly delicious! The entire dinner had a story that related to the Lion King that went along with each dish, it was very themed and thoughtful. Next we had our mains, Tim had the bone in ribeye and I had the seafood coconut curry dish with saffron rice. Both were excellent and had a ton of flavor. Lastly we had the Hakuna Matata dessert, which was a chocolate eclair sort of dish with flavors of caramelized orange. I loved it, but Tim not so much lol. The full pre fixe menu included 3 courses and was $65 per person. We both felt that this was a great deal for a Disney signature dining experience and would definitely recommend it and do it again. We hope you enjoyed this in depth look at the Lion King themed dinner at Jiko! Thank you for watching and we'll see you tomorrow with a new vid!

Hahaha! I love Tim's honesty when trying the dessert:
Jenn: Do you like it?
Tim: No.
That is what I like about their videos-they give you an honest answer. I know that everyone is different and has different tastes and opinions; but, they give us their honest opinions and not what they think we might want to hear.
Tanya Zundel that’s cause Tim doesn’t like orange and chocolate
I'm always telling my son how I love when Tim says whether he likes something or not. He does not sugar coat it. Straight honesty. "That's horrible", "I don't understand why they did that", "Oh no, I don't like that", "It would be good if", "I would not get that again"
Thank you so much for putting us in the outro!! We loved meeting both of you and really appreciate the time you took to speak to us and take a few pics!! You really made our anniversary celebration so special! God bless you guys!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️
It was great to see you guys!
kathygrabigel I also went to Slippery Rock 😁
Hearing him sing circle of life....everytime I see the Broadway show (17 times and counting) it makes me fall in love with the show all over again. The opening with circle of life is simply the most stunning opening in any Broadway show I have ever seen.
SEVENTEEN TIMES? I had to beg my parents to take me for 19 years 😂 We finally saw it 3 years ago, and it was A M A Z I N G
@@SteriodStawberries ..I've been blessed enough to see it both in NYC and London. It is truly an amazing show.
The opening made me teary when I saw the show in NYC a couple of years ago.
@@melissaslater5943 ...gets me everytime. Cant wait to see it again.
Tim not liking the dessert makes a lot of sense when you find out it’s caramelized orange 😂
Jen is literally glowing! Pregnancy looks great on you.
I was so crazy pumped to try this meal! My 11 year old even got his own bone marrow and clams and he ate his entire giant steak! The musicians were so talented and really added to the experience. Our server was a total dud. She acted like we were a huge inconvenience to her, we had to ask for the tea, and she never did bring us our cute little gummies. It was still a fun experience! And it was really fun to watch this video with our own experience in our memory bank.
I don’t remember the sea 🌊 being anywhere in the Lion King.
I was thinking the same thing.
Ditto. When I think Lion King, I think carnivore 🥩👍🏼
I suppose they tried to open the menu up to *all* of Africa including South Africa. Helps create some menu diversity and more options, I think
shell fish are sea bugs so I think they are using sea bugs instead of real bugs
Because there isn't one hehe. It's a collaboration with Little mermaid lol jk
Me when I’m alone and Tim uploads: YAASSS
Me and my family when Tim uploads: YALL COME SIT AROUND THE TV TIM AND JEN JUST UPLOADED!
Akari Hernandez oh ya! My family is HUGE on Disney! We love everything about Disney.
Me and my partner are exactly the same 😃
Your family sounds fun!
TheTimTracker Well it’s like you’re apart of it because you and Jen (or Tim, whoever is reading/replying) are like family members that we get to see every day. It’s so nice that you guys take the time and money to not only have fun yourself, but make it fun for everyone else! ❤️🤩
My 6 and 10 year old girl love watching with me.
I don't understand why there's so much seafood in a Lion King themed meal. There's no ocean in The Lion King.
They are sea bugs
Well nothing really makes sense. But we love it. Like Ariel being African American now. Lion King x Little mermaid
@@TeriyakiDior actually African Danish
Its more african themed that lion king themed. Seafood is heavily eaten throughout africa so it makes sense that theyd have it
@@badlandsghost if u think about it. The seafood in the dish is sea bugs. Timon and pumba eat sea bugs
I saw you guys in a universal studios commercial on TV and I literally gasped
Tim its was not so long ago both you and Jen left TH-cam and all social media I can only imagine what took you both to that place which has brought you so much happiness. Since coming back you videos have taken new perspective and joy so keep that journey and may that fulfillment continue.
Omg! I looove Jen's hair and makeup!! She looks so beautiful and glowing!! I love the way you two look each other! Thank you for your everyday videos! Best wishes from Argentina on this new trip of having a mini tracker! 🤗🤗🤗
I think you guys finally showed me a meal that I'm NOT anxious to try, like, at all
We enjoyed your review! We don't have any specific aversions to that seafood, but it was interesting to hear how they accommodated your table. We got to go on opening night for this Lion King feast, and we enjoyed both dishes a lot, especially the steak. But the seafood/shellfish dish was excellent, too. We happened to sit in the same section and got to watch the musical gents circle (of life) around us a few times. Our server and the manager were especially pleasant and on top of things. Overally, like you all said, as fancy meals go, this is a very good one.
Circle on, Tim and Jenn! Thanks for showing people around!
I think Tim would have like the desert better if it had a cheeseburger underneath the eclair
I do like the occasional desert, it's just when I try to eat 5 of them in a row that I crave something savory.
That’s about right
He'd like it more if it wasn't orange and chocolate. LOL.
so i have nearly crippling anxiety that sometimes prevents me from leaving my house. and watching y'alls videos help ease my anxiety. you both have such amazing energy. so thank you for distracting me for a little while every day. much love many blessings!
Jenn is so pretty!! I cant wait to try Jiko looks amazing. Thank you for the review!
Agreed! Jenn is beautiful!
There’s definitely something different about her.
I feel like I’m on vacation at Disney while I’m lying on my couch in Delaware. Thank you.
I love that you do this! I’m a single mom and my child is NOT down for fancy dinners yet, so I don’t get to go to these amazing places! Now, I can live vicariously through you guys! Haha Thank you!!!
Thanks for the review of the restaurant! Watching your Disney videos makes me want to go back.
You are very welcome!
I love themed meals like this! Btw both Jenn and Tim have that pregnancy glow.,,or maybe it was the mood lighting there but they definitely had a “glow” 🤷🏼♀️😂
For me it was definitely the lighting. Jenn is beautiful, but me... lighting.
TheTimTracker awe...such a sweet answer☺️She does make pregnancy look easy 👏🏻
I came across this Channel this past weekend and ever since I can’t get enough of Tim and Jenn you guys are the best need a reality show Godbless On the new bundle of joy awesome now you have a little one to do Disney with ect .
Jen: Do you like the dessert?
Tim: NO!
Lmao!
The take home tea is a nice treat and I looooove the baby Simba art on the bottle!
Never has a video been so perfectly timed for when I sit down to relax. Thank you guys for making all these awesome videos!!! Xo
Me too. Just sat down and this came on.
Love the intro it was very soothing to watch! The food looked amazing and the live musicians were a nice touch. Great video!
Jen and Tim have the Portrait mode down on the camera 😂😂😂😂
I love the food vlogs! I can’t wait to go to Disney and try all the food. I have a list of things that I know what I want to try.
I LOVE to sit down open up TH-cam and see that you guys have posted a new video. Made my day like always. Love y'all. Can't wait to see the new Lion King 🦁 👑
Hakuna Matata Dessert & Hakuna Matata Song = Perfect!!! 🌟🌟🌟
It really was perfect!
Hey Tim and Jenn! Thanks for another awesome dinning review. That review of Takumi Tei was really cool. I want to try that place when I’m there in October
Jenn you look amazing!! Your color scheme fits right in at this restaurant 😁. We stayed there about 10 years ago and would love to go back to that resort. Enjoyed this video!
I really enjoyed the gentleman singing. They were good. When Tim held up that menu at 4:15, I swear to God I read the Carnage of life.
Tim, my husband and I just recently joined your channel,, about 4 months or so ago, and I have to say, your videos are very entertaining and we just love the personal touches you both give to your videos....the food reviews and restaurant reviews I just love! Also too, the old wives tale about the "glow" of pregnancy is indeed true, your wife seems to be just glowing and radiating beauty ..kudos to her for being a trooper and enhancing all the videos and vlogs! Keep up the great work!
Love the little program you got explaining the story behind each dish, above and beyond theming!!! 🦁👑🦁
Jiko was the best meal we had during our past few trips. The filet mignon with mac & cheese was amazing!
I would love to know why the chefs thought sea food was a good option for a lion king themed meal... Doesn’t seem my kind of thing. It looked nicely presented though
I just wanted to say that I really enjoy reading the comment section after a Tim Tracker video. It’s like Tim and Jen and all of us are one big family. 99.9% of all the comments on here are very positive and fun. Extremely refreshing. That is all. ❤️👊🏻👌🏻
Yay. Top ten finally!! Much love from Port St Joe, FL. I love the entertainers. When he was talking about the giraffes being very tall, made me think of Tracy Morgan as Brian Fellow.
I agree with everyone else. Jenn is glowing. Always enjoy your videos. Thanks
Loved those two entertainers!! And I agree - Jenn looks great!
Aww the live music was really awesome 🐈💚🐈😊
Agreed! I loved it!
@@TheTimTracker 💚
We look forward to your videos everyday! My husband and I love watching them!
Yay! Another chill intro! Haha,, love seeing the growth and changes of your guy's videos as time passes
Man this looks so delicious!! Ps Jen I love your Mickey necklace! So pretty and delicate 💗
Loved those live musicians!!! 🦁🥁
I love that both of you have such an adventurous pallet! I’m living vicariously through you both, I have a rather boring pallet...I don’t try new things for fear I won’t like it and waste my money and the food! I could never eat the squid 🦑 or clams, you are so brave Jen!!
This is why I eat at Boma instead of Jiko, because l would be very upset if I’ve paid that much and not enjoyed my dessert! 😝
Jen, your skin is absolutely GLOWING!
Aww, loved these performers.
Mmm scrape out that bone marrow. Sounds delightful.
I think for Disney that’s a great $65 meal. 3 courses and a take home brochure AND a “souvenir” of tea. That’s amazing. Even if you don’t drink the tea and literally leave it as a little display on a shelf or something.
I w ent to olive garden sat, great tastin food and yummy bread sticks =)
LISA PITTS 👏👏
I have to say the marrow FREAKED me out. Looks way too gross for me 😆😆 I love your food vids! Fave is home vlogs then food reviews then Tim's construction updates then the parks!
The marrow was pretty good though!
I definitely could not eat it!
@@TheTimTracker I don't know how you ate it 🤢 Although I try not eat food that looks like what it is / was....if that makes any sense.
Although Here in Ireland, people eat Pigs feet, toenails and all 🤢🤢 It's considered a "delicacy"
Just No lol
The whole entire meal was a whole buncha nope for me!
Jen was hilarious from 10:20-10:35. Literally made me laugh out loud :D
Loved this as always, 🥰 Jen you are positively glowing xx
Never been to Jiko! Ive heard great things from most people. Thanks for the review!
Jiko is pretty darn good!
Those musicians were amazing!
I was a Cast Member at the AKL in the fall of 2011 and was given the chance to eat at Jiko several times. Fantastic restaurant in a beautiful resort. My favorite resort, but I'm biased. ;)
FYI, calamari is the little squid rings and tentacles.
When the squid is chopped up, the body ends up forming the rings, and the head obviously is the tentacles.
Thanks!
Tim and Jenn you too look fabulous nice dinner I'm looking forward for this movie love you
🎶Oh yes they are blending like wine and babotie🎶 The singers were awesome, they did remind me of Blended though.
I wonder what possessed someone to ever eat bone marrow for the first time. Hmmm, that stuff inside a bone that looks absolutely awful...I think I'll eat it😂.
LOL. Our ancestors used everything they could because to waste precious resources around that time was unthought of. I just feel bad for those pioneers who had to try the new thing and hope it wouldn't kill them.
AroundIndiana I have eaten bone marrow since I was a kid. I love it. I also like the grisly parts on the ends of chicken bones too. 😋
we were there last night! saw you guys 😂 that’s my mom in the background ya 3:41. 😂💕
Kaelynn how fun!!!
Thank you Jenn for calling it what it was... The Lion King is a CGI movie... you got it
Oh, dear dog, I'm never going to eat there. Between the bone marrow and squid tentacles, count me out!
I just thought that even it being called bone marrow was awful! lol I won't be eating there either lol
Keep in mind this is a special menu for the movie. They have their regular menu to choose food from! It was expensive but I enjoyed my meal there.
Count me in! 😂 Never tried bone marrow but I'm down to try anything, plus I think it looked good. And I love all seafood so this place looks really good to me.
Well, the menu is for more refined and adventurous palettes. By the way, squid isn’t that unusual
Jenn is gorgeous! That lighting at dinner is everything, sis.
This looks good - I wish it was available longer. That appetizer looks amazing and I love the musicians.
You are positively GLOWING Jenn! Orange looks great on you too.
Averill Springer I totally agree!
Jenn looks gorgeous and Tim you look very handsome! I can’t wait to be back at Disney, thanks for the review! God bless!!❤️
Tim don't like orange and chocolate combination 🙋🏻♀️ Me Too 🤪
Tim and jenn hi
Jenn is looking really well
Tim I thought for a moment you were going to get up and have a little dance to the music 😃
Your both amazing 👍👍
I almost did! I was really feeling the music!
@@TheTimTracker The music was very catchy
Oh and I share your dislike for fish food 😃
So awesome to say hi to you this day! Crazy how your slogan got my head turned around at work and I stopped what I was doing lol
absolute best review of Lion King Dinner Experience !I wish it were there through the Holidays
How do you spend a lazy Sunday ????? Binge watching the Tim Tracker of course.!!!!!
The perfect Sunday!
Did anyone else think that anytime the camera was on Jenn in the restaurant, it looked very ‘film-like’? Those shots seemed to have a very cinematic feel to them. Maybe it was the restaurant lighting or the new camera. Whatever it is, I’m diggin it! Jenn, you look beautiful 😊
Most of the shots of Jenn were filmed on our Sony while most of the shots of me were filmed on the Canon. Slight differences between the two.
This sounds yummy and fun, a perfect Disney dining experience!!
aaa every time i watch a disney video of yours i get so excited, (been watching for years). i’m going for my 4th time in august for 3 days and i haven’t went in 4 years!! excited to watch this vlog :)
Just wanted to say I've barely even been to Disney in my life (more of a universal gal) but I watch every single video. You guys truly turn my bad days better just wanted to thank you (:
Jen! You look incredible! Your skin looks so clear and perfect!
Jen is gorgeous that smile 😊. Love watching !
You present your videos so well!
Time of the day? Tracker uploaded yet? OK cool let's sit 👍
The most adorable taste tester.
Disney, please hire me....I would love to remake this menu. I did love the take-home tea.
Jen looks beautiful! That live entertainment had such a great attitude :D
When we went to JIKO, we were excited to Try exotic Meals. My Hubby was a Big Fan.
Lobster symbolizes Simba's trials and tribulations? I think all the seafood belongs to a Little Mermaid themed meal.
He is fantastic! Beautiful singer!
Jenn's main dish looks so goooooood ...
Me and my family are all Disney addicts. We have been to Orlando 6 times and nearly met you Tim and Jen , I’ve been to Paris twice and I’ve been to California 1 but I’m going again soon and also when Disneyland is finished in Canada we are also going to go there. 💕😊👍🏻
Jenn, pregnancy sure does agree with you. You are simply glowing and beautiful.
I’ve had bone marrow and I did not care for it! It’s like meat jelly 😂 Definitely a fun dinner though
The server described it as meat butter.:-)
The only item I might have a bit of an issue about trying would be the bone marrow and served in the bone like that. Grosses me out a bit.
Jenn, you are always pretty, but this pregnancy has made you absolutely stunning. The food looked great. I'm glad you had such a good time.
I gagged when Jen ate that baby squid thing!
I just love you guys! I’m a Floridian and season pass holder I hope to run into u guys at the parks!
Loved the musicians.
Maybe its just me but why order a meal if you don't like half the ingredients then expect the restaurant to change it to something else? Why not just choose something that you do like?
I get the idea that this is a special meal that you order the entire meal. So if you want the experience, this is the meal you get.
Because I wanted to show off the special Lion King menu, plus maybe someone watching might want to order it that way.
@@TheTimTracker I guess it is just me, then! 😄
Each one of these “inspiration stories” behind each dish is such a stretch.
Love your videos but I don't think I would eat any of that! 😁
Very different dinner. I would try it. My wife not so much. Thank you for sharing. I liked the experience of it all. ❤️👍
