Wood Fired Lamb Loin

and get a African Tusker beer to go with it!

 

[Mouse Skywalker]

Gotta have the "Taste of Africa" appetizer. Mmmmm, I love it.

I also liked the filet mignon with mac & cheese when I had it in Jan 2007, but it sounds like it didn't get such a good review by Kevin and John recently. Sounds like the portion sizes got smaller.

I'm also a fan of the Tusker beer.

 

[BeamsofLight]

Kevin was right. After our dining review, I have often found myself thinking "I could really go for some Taste of Africa right now..." Don't miss that appetizer, but be prepared to be thinking the same thing months after the fact.

The Barbecue Chicken Flatbread is good. I once went and made dinner out of Taste of Africa and two chicken flatbread. I had to share the first one with everyone at the table.

I had the filet mignon & the mac & cheese on my 12/07 trip and it was to die for! I still think about it Assuming I can still afford my May trip, I will be making ressies to eat there again.

OMG that looks SOOOOOOO good! We're definitely trying Jiko on our next trip.

I love the Beef Short Rib, but I get it with the Mac and Cheese that comes with the filet. The BBQ chicken flatbread is great and the samosas!

[IWISHFORDISNEY]

Oh my that looks sooooo good I am definately excited. We always go to Boma and it has slipped a bit; so we are going for Jiko!! The Pistachio Creme Brulee sounds wonderful. Which of those breads is the naan bread?

 

[BeamsofLight]

It's the bread on the plate, in front of the dips. So yummy!

The scallops at Jiko were great. Also the curry shrimp - but not as good as scallops

 

[SamSam]

Dh and I have never had an entree or an appetizer that we didn't like at Jiko's. We have had everything on the menu at one time or another (except all the desserts) and although we have favorites, we have enjoyed everything.

My favorite is the Maize-crusted Halibut with Vegetables of the Moment, Tomato-Butter Sauce. It's also the entree they include in the Disney chef cookbook.

They used to prepare that dish with monkfish. I used to dream about it.
