Disney's Animal Kingdom · Asia
The outdoor quick-service counters next to the Yak and Yeti restaurant, doing honey chicken and noodle bowls at half the price.
Last verified July 2026
Local Food Cafes is a set of covered outdoor counters attached to the Yak and Yeti building, serving a compressed version of the same idea: honey chicken with rice, teriyaki beef bowls, noodle bowls, egg rolls and a few sides. It is Disney-operated, unlike the table-service restaurant next door.
The honey chicken is the item worth knowing about. It is sweet, crisp and portioned generously, and it is one of the two or three quick-service plates in this park that people specifically come back for.
Seating is outdoor and covered, with a decent amount of it, though there is no air conditioning anywhere in this complex.
The best quick-service value in Asia and one of the best plates in the park for the price. The honey chicken is genuinely good; everything around it is filler.
The dishes this kitchen is actually known for. Menus change seasonally, so treat this as what to look for rather than a guaranteed list.

Crisp fried chicken in a sweet honey glaze over rice, from the outdoor quick-service counters beside the Yak and Yeti restaurant.
Our take: The item this counter has a reputation for, and it earns it. Sweet, crisp and generously portioned - the best quick-service plate in Asia by a distance.
Large fried egg rolls sold as a side at the outdoor Asia counters, filled with pork or vegetables depending on the day's menu.
Our take: Sold as a side and big enough to be a snack in its own right. Two of these plus one shared honey chicken is the cheapest good lunch in Asia.
The restaurant is an indoor, air-conditioned table service run by Landry's with a full menu and reservations. Local Food Cafes is a Disney-operated outdoor quick-service counter with a short menu at roughly half the price. They share a name and a theme, nothing else.
The honey chicken, which is the standout and the reason the counter has a following. The teriyaki beef bowl is the second choice; the rest of the menu is unremarkable.
No. All seating here is outdoors under cover. If you need to be indoors, the table-service restaurant next door is the only air-conditioned option in Asia.
