TRIVIA
Before opening as the Bengal Barbecue in 1990, the snack bar was called “Sunkist, I Presume” and served mainly Sunkist juices.
When Adventureland adopted a 1930’s era with the installation of Indiana Jones, the Bengal Barbecue was one of the only spots in the land to undergo zero façade changes to adapt to the new time period.
