Bengal BBQ- Is it gone yet?

[A Disney Dreamer]

Well people on mouse info say the Bengal BBQ is closed- I may be just misreading what they are saying- but does anybody have any info on this?


Personally I don't care if it goes (I much rather see more sit-down places like Carnation and Blue Bayou) cept keep french market and the plaza inn as is

Last time I went it was still open but I heard it was going to go down again. I could care less if it leaves myself. My nephew dies for it but I tried it and it was like eatting a dead dog on a stick! YUCK! I paid a bunch and ended up throwing it away and finding something else.

Why don't they move it anyway? It causes so much congestion in that area..... Does anyone know? I know it is liked but is it so popular that they can't move it or get rid of it? All they have to do is move the "dog sticks" to a cart somewhere so people can get them and be happy.

( I don't mean to offend you BBQ lovers! )

It's still open. I eat at it every time I go, if at all possible.
As I've stated in my updates, I LOVE the place.

We just returned from DL...Bengal BBQ is still open for business!

Obvious it's in the wrong location then. It just needs to come down here to the coastal empire and it'd be just like home eats for the locals.

Dead Dog on a stick...very interesting.

I don't care if it goes eihter. I tried it for the first time about a month ago...it was gross...

If one tries to follow the healthy eating guidelines set forth by the FDA, which can be found at www.FDA.gov, one realizes that small portions, low fat, lean meat are part of a healthy lifestyle. While Bengal isn't great, it's the best Disney has at the moment. Plus, it's right next to the stair master 2000, better known as the backwards swiss family tree house with Disney store props.

yeah, but the sauce is gross and can't be good for you.....there are many places that offer healthy choices in DTD.....one does not have to eat in the park....if I'm watchign what i eat i don't say, 'oh well, only non-healthy choices...guess I'll tank up."...No, I go find food i want to eat....

Agreed. But what if you don't want to leave the park. And it's no excuse for not offering more quality and more healthy food choices inside the park. Someone said in another thread...it's an amusement park...you get amusement park food. Wrong. Disneyland is more than an "amusement park", so it follows that we should expect more food choices.

Thank you,

I disagree...DL is an amusement/theme park...nothing more...should they offer more food choices? Perhaps, btut hey won't unless epople demand it and people seem pretty happy chowing down on churros, popcorn and dole whips....why would they change a formula thats workign for them?...at that point the choice is the individuals. they choose to stay in the park and eat junk...or they choose to leave and seek more food options...there's always a choice...

Final thought on the matter in this thread...Seems to me that Walt sure envisioned Disneyland to be more than just an amusement park...that's why he wanted to build it in the first place.

And maybe it's just my foggy memory but before all the cutbacks and bean counters, pardon the pun, there was better quality and food choices in-park...

Bengal BBQ may not be the best eating establishment around, but at least it's something more than a churro, or a tasteless burger and cold fries.

yeah, but walts been dead for 40+ years....and dispite what he wanted he did build and amusement/theme park. as far as food chioces...if people buy the crap they peddle they won't change. Compared to other theme/amyusement parks DL offers some really good choices. When I went to Sea World they ahd nothign good to choose from excpet at one restuarant that had a mile long line, but unlike DL leaving wasn't that easy at Sea World. thankfully i do have a platinum pass and parking was very close and the line to get in was nonexsistanttant for us, but ti was still a PITA to leave and come back. At least at DL there are many choices in walking distance.
