Just wanted to let folks know that the food court at the zoo is undergoing renovations for a few months so the only option for food apart from bringing your own - and the odd snack stands inside - are the outlets right upfront near the ticketing area or worn ole KFC inside near the children's playground.

The sound of the pressurehammers at the renovation site can't be great for the animals either. For the first time in over a year of zoo-going, I heard an aggressive exchange - and by that I mean loud screaming - between two orangutans near the entrance.
