Aww! Little does she know that will be the first of many blisters in her life because of shoes!
Amen sista. And she is starting so young those poor feet don't stand a chance.
Smart move on just going with the naan! We're fine with have the 3 types of naan but they are better than those other two options! I'm all for having bread for dinner sometimes - can't blame your daughter for just wanting that when its especially yummy!
I don't think we've ever had the other options, but have tried all the naan. We like the garlic and the cheese one, but prefer a nice clean palette for all the delicious sauces
Casey would live on bread, butter, salt and olive oil if we let her. Thankfully she eats just about everything, but those are most definitely her 4 food groups.
Hey! That's all of our lines
Sanaa is our fav for sure!! Good taste there my friend for sure. Alexander is doing well. He will be 3 July 5. Where does the time go?!!
3 already, OMG where does the time go indeed. You'll have to post a picture of him. He's still barely a toddler in my crazy mind
Ah yes, that sounds very familiar. Reminds me of my last trip when my youngest insisted on keeping her Anna costume boots on to stomp around MK. She lasted a few hours and made it pretty far with them (as evidence below by the picture on Tom Sawyer Island), but finally gave up when the blisters came.
She and Casey are most definitely two peas in the proverbial pod. I'm sure if Casey's mean mother would let her a. wear a costume or b. let said costume have anything remotely resembling Anna boots she'd be in the exact same Tom Sawyer island kinda blister pain
I've never been to Sanaa, but I feel like I would enjoy it. I love Naan, traditional style like you, but with the butter of course. I've had it just plain without butter and it's not as good.
You should most definitely give it a whirl. Butter or not, their naan is divine. Do you all have any trips planned soon?
I love butter chicken too. Of course I'm the only one in my clan who will eat Indian food, so I have no idea what the rest would eat. Perhaps just plain naan. I think that is perfectly fine for a meal.
Just feed the girls the naan and go all out on the Indian for you!
Your trip report is getting me so excited for my trip!! I've got both Narcoossee's and Sanaa booked during my 1st week....aaaand I
just bought a pair of cheap Frozen sandals which I now will be promptly discarding in the trash, thanks Casey you saved me a box of Mickey bandaids girlfriend!!

Thank you for another great report, I'll be standing by for some entertaining day drinking!!
Awesome!!!!! Hope you enjoy two of our all time favs. And your trip is so close!!! Where are you staying?
And please don't throw out your cheap frozen sandles. Surely someone with uncranky in their name can make due and rock those frozen candles like there is no tomorrow all over the world.
Your meal at Sanaa looks great! Especially the bread service.
It is oh so good. A definite dining must do!
Now you have me second guessing my decision to cancel my Sanna lunch on departure day! That looks fantastic! I am trying to branch out and only make ADRs at places I have never eaten at before.
I know you went on your last trip, so I can appreciate branching out. Though if you find yourself at AKL and are hungry.......
We love Sanna and especially their bread service. I totally could make a meal out of it like Casey!
After all the comments on here, I'm thinking the 6 year old and her request to have the bread only is the way too go. Maybe next time we just cozy up the bar and drink and eat naan all night
I find my own trip report notes like this all the time...
Aren't they the funniest. I type notes in my phone and they tend to be pretty sparse, so putting them together is always a feet. Add the alcohol and well you know how that goes
'm so obsessed with butter chicken and have tried to find the "perfect" recipe at home, but I also don't care much for cooking, so...
I've never done the butter chicken, but if you have a Harris Teeter near you they have their own really great line of indian sauces and have a butter one. We've been really happy with with the korma, tikka and a few other sauces, so I'm sure the butter one is good too.
I'm fairly certain that Sean is going to just go with extra bread service for his dinner in September, too. Nothing wrong with that! I think you're the first person I've seen review the chickpea wat. Curious to try it! Of course now my entree choices just got that much more complicated, since your brother's coconut milk veggies sound good too. Ah, decisions decisions. At least I've got 118 days to figure it out
Nope, nothing wrong with all bread at all. Especially when you're a kid on vacation in disney world
I'd definitely go for the chickpea over the veggies. The veggies were good, but the chickpeas are from another world. Keep me posted on which is winning daily tally in your mind over the next 118 days
As I sit in my bed a couple floors up from Sanaa

I am reading your review and wishing we'd eaten there on this short trip! It's been far too long since I've had that bread service.......we did eat breakfast there yesterday but that's a story for another report. I always get the butter chicken but the Biryani chicken does look and sound good!
Oh how I simultaneously hate and love you

Can't believe you were at AKL and didn't Sanaa it up for bread service, but did have breakfast there

Can't wait to hear the story
The walk between Jambo and Kidani can be very nice if its not 105 degrees, 100% humidity, or if your shoes aren't the Payless Frozen type. Luckily I left my Frozen shoes home so we've enjoyed the walk a couple times
What???????? You left your frozen shoes at home!!!!!!! Having seen your shirt choices you clearly would have had TONS of thing to wear them with. And I know you could have drank your way through the blisters
Yeah, welcome to womanhood dear Casey. One day it's wearing uncomfortable shoes in the name of fashion, the next day it's crying your eyes out in a dressing room somewhere while attempting to purchase jeans, a bathing suit, or a bra that fits correctly




I.....have......no........words.
That last part made me LOL!!! I almost spit out my coffee...
What do you know I almost spit out my wine

This is making me soo hungry for Indian... Yum... The bread service is seriously half of the reason I want to go so much. Good to know that you can order more bread! I love to sop up my sauce with the bread.. I could probably do without the stuff in it...
I think it is only like 2 or 3 dollars more for extra bread and oh so worth it.
I will have to remember the Chickpea Wat.. DH and I always order Chicken Tikka Masala when we order Indian at home.
We don't have many great indian places here, but we have a lot of Afghan ones that turned me onto really well done chickpeas. As much as I love my beloved local kabob house chickpeas, the ones at Sanaa are seriously the best I've ever had. When I want vegetarian over meat you know they are doing something right!
Looks soooooo good!!! I am kind of worried about the butter chicken not living up to what I want it to be. I might need to do the Coconut Curry and Chickpea Wat to be "adventous" !
You should totally go all vegetarian. We've had the paneer, curry, chickpeas, and lentils and all are ah-maz-ing!!!!
@ariane37 is mean. Please torment her on my behalf on your trip!
You are correct, madam. We saw someone eating it when we walked in there Thurs. night, before deciding to go to Victoria Falls for a drink instead. A couple times we thought about going down and getting it but we ended up eating other things
Victoria Falls over Sanaa lounge?????? Can't wait to see how that worked out for ya
Great update!! I seriously need to look into the bread service at Sanaa... I would love nothing more than a cocktail and bread. Two of my favorite food groups

Also, poor Casey and her little feet.... lesson learned
What do you know, cocktails and bread are my 2 favorite food groups too
That's so funny that you say that, because that's exactly what my husband and I did in March. We went to Sanaa strictly for cocktails and the bread service.
I think we all have one track bread and cocktail minds
