There might be no one who loves new eats more than us at Disney Food Blog, especially if they’re coming from one of our favorite restaurants.

Tiffins


We headed to Tiffins Restaurant in Disney’s Animal Kingdom to check out some new food that has just dropped, and we’re taking you along with us!



Planning guide for the ultimate Disney vacation

First, we tried the Korean Barbecue Pork Belly Bao Buns for $16, and they come with pickled cucumber, green papaya slaw, and cilantro.

All of the flavors combined were really good, but we found ourselves looking for more. We think this would have been a great chance to introduce more flavors since it didn’t necessarily pack a punch. The pork belly inside was juicy, with a few dry spots, and we wish there were more filling to enjoy, but we still think it was a nice, savory addition. The slaw was very crunchy and added nice texture, too.

Inside


Of course, we had Tiffins Signature Bread Service, which costs $20 (we love bread!). It has Pão de Queijo with guava sauce, onion kulcha naan with coriander chutney, and Thai curry milk bread with coconut-curry sauce.

Three trays of bread!


This would totally be a meal in itself! The first bread was a Brazilian cheese bread with the guava sauce, and we loved the two combined together. It was fresh and flavorful, and our favorite of the three.

Brazillian Cheese Bread


The next one was an onion kulcha naan with a coriander chutney. The onion flavor was pretty mellow, but the chutney had quite a bit of a kick to it. We’re not sure it exactly matched the naan, but it was herby, oily, and even a bit messy, and a solid choice of the three.

Naan


The final one had a strong hit of spice! Even our server warned us before we dove in, so we would save this one for last since the spice lingers. The bread was seasoned and soft, and the sauce was on the runnier side, but we’re always happy if we can find real spice at Disney World

Cury milk bread


We also had the African Pot de Crème for $13, which is a chocolate pot de crème, Ethiopian coffee, ras el hanout, pineapple, pistachio, and a chocolate cookie.

Pot de Creme


There were so many different elements on this plate that you’ll want to try to get them all in the same bite. The chocolate base was a bit thicker than pudding and was almost difficult to dig our spoon through it (but it was worth the effort!). There was a light cake on top that was almost like eating air, and the cookie had a tiramisu flavor with a crunch. The crumbles along the sides added some saltiness, too, which was a nice, different taste.

Diving in


We didn’t stop there and had to try the Caramel Flan for $14, which has cardamom-scented caramel and vanilla chantilly.

Caramel Flan


The flan had a really nice, bouncy texture with a gorgeous, oozy caramel sauce on top that wasn’t too runny or too sticky. The scoop of chantilly added to the flan softened the caramel flavor since caramel is the most forward taste. While it was good, we’re not sure it was a standout for us.

We loved the caramel flavor


Finally, we ended on the Seasonal Sorbet Trio for $11, which features their Tiffins signature sorbet trio and is also plant-based. The three flavors were Strawberry Pink Peppercorn, Blueberry Yuzu with Shisho Sugar, and Apricot Orange Pistachio.

Seasonal Sorbet Trio


The strawberry pink peppercorn one was SO fresh and packed with that fresh strawberry flavor. It was richer than most other strawberry flavors you can find in the grocery store and was smooth. The peppercorn didn’t really come out, but we think strawberry lovers are going to get a kick out of this one.

Strawberry Pink Peppercorn


The blueberry one was a bit more icy, like an acai bowl. The sugar on top added a grainy, crunchy texture, but not much extra sweetness. The main flavors were floral, and there was even a small flower on top.

Blueberry Yuzu with Shisho Sugar


For the final one, the apricot orange one, there was a slight nutty taste. It was very tart and not super apricot-forward; it was mostly fruit-flavored. It had a super smooth texture, with added pistachios for crunch, but the pistachios were toned down compared to others and were very balanced.

Apricot Orange Pistachio


We’re not sure we’re totally in love with these new changes, but Tiffins is still a great restaurant to make a reservation for on your Animal Kingdom day. We always find this sit-down spot, a nice and relaxing place to rest during a chaotic park day, and we always love it when we can do it with some good food.
