12 Restaurants CHANGED in Disney World This Week

By 1 Comment

It’s been a HUGE week in Disney World — at least for food.

We’ve been eating and drinking our way around EPCOT this week

Why Doesn’t Disney Use These Abandoned Parts of EPCOT as Restaurants?

By 3 Comments

EPCOT has seen some pretty significant changes over the years!

EPCOT

The park that opened in 1982 is not the same as the one we have today, with a variety of attraction changes, new restaurants, and updates to World Showcase pavilions. But in that time, some places have been “abandoned” or left unused around the park. And we think Disney could turn those spots into some incredible dining locations!
