Sanaa at AKL???

[Disneymoon]

Note: I tried searching the boards, but nothing came up...

While I was looking at the menus on Allears... I noticed a new restaurant is opening at AKL called Sanaa in May 2009 for lunch and dinner... does anyone know anything about it?

Thanks!

Hi,

This--also from allears--is all we know so far:

Sanaa (pronounced sah-NAH), the new table service restaurant at Animal Kingdom Villas' Kidani Village set to open May 1, 2009, will begin taking reservations for Disney Vacation Club Members ONLY (via Member Services) beginning February 16. Named for the Swahili word for "artwork," Sanaa will feature African-inspired cuisine with an Indian touch and will be open for lunch and dinner. The restaurant will serve familiar foods prepared in tandoor ovens, along with slow-cooked specialties showcasing the flavorful spices of Africa.

Non-DVC Members can make reservations at Sanaa beginning February 23 by calling 407-WDW-DINE (939-3463).
