What’s New at Epcot: Space 220 Construction and the WEIRDEST Thing You Can Do To Your Face!

Hey, everyone, we’re back with another update from Epcot!

Spaceship Earth

There’s a lot of construction to see as Epcot continues it’s ongoing transformation of Future World and additions to World Showcase, but we’ve also got some food and merch updates for ya. Let’s get started!

Epcot Food Updates

Sunshine Seasons

Sunshine Seasons has added a Bacon Cheeseburger to the menu for $13.49. It’s served on a brioche bun and comes with a side of potato chips.

Bacon Cheeseburger

Sunshine Seasons has a great variety of food, but if you just want a good, old-fashioned burger, then this will be a welcome sight for you. This addition is likely due to the fact that Electric Umbrella is set to close soon and the park will be lacking classic American food options.

Lotus Blossom Cafe

In the China pavilion, the Lotus Blossom Cafe has a few specials for the Chinese New Year. The Chef’s Special comes with two Potstickers, either Orange Chicken or Mongolian Beef, and Chicken Fried Rice for $15.98. You can also get a Honeydew Boba Tea for $6.98.

Epcot Construction Updates

Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind

We’re looking forward to riding Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind when it opens in 2021 for Disney World’s 50th anniversary. Construction is progressing on the facade of the attraction that will turn the former Universe of Energy into the galaxarium.

Space 220

Another anticipated opening in Future World is the Space 220 restaurant that will take us for an out-of-this-world eating experience, literally! It looks like an additional wall has gone up outside Mission: SPACE as construction on the exterior continues to progress.

Next door at Test Track, the refurbishment work continues on the entrance to the attraction. You can expect to test drive your sim cars again on February 26th.

Taste Track

Now we make tracks over to the site of the returning Taste Track. This on-again/off-again kiosk will be soon be serving up some classic theme park fare, like burgers and chicken tenders, to make up for the closing of Electric Umbrella.

The Seas with Nemo and Friends

Over at The Seas with Nemo and Friends, they’ve installed new signs for the Shark World, Ocean Life, and Manatees viewing areas. The signs look slick and clean, and they even feature the old Living Seas emblem!

Remy’s Ratatouille Adventure

If you hop aboard the Skyliner, you can get a good view of the exterior work happening on Remy’s Ratatouille Adventure. This attraction is scheduled to open this summer and we can hardly wait to scuttle around with Remy in this trackless adventure.

Check out the Remy’s Ratatouille Adventure sign that was recently installed here!

Regal Eagle

The sign for the Regal Eagle Smokehouse has been installed, but it’s still covered up. Lights have also been placed on either side of the sign. We’re ready for some of that delicious barbecue courtesy of our good friend Sam the Eagle from the Muppets.

Pizza al Taglio

If you’re a fan of the pizza-on-the-go from Pizza al Taglio in the Italy pavilion, we have good news for you. The walk-up window is set to open again on March 14th. We can’t wait to get our hands on more Arancini!

Pizza al Taglio will return

Germany Pavilion

We could spend a good few minutes with a pretzel and beer watching the trains roll by in Germany, and it looks like they’ve added some new banners in the model town for Festival of the Arts.

Why It's Important and Tips for Making Better Food Choices for Kids

The American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) recently released a set of guidelines in both a statement and report that urged parents and others responsible for children’s health to beware of the chemicals in many common foods and food packaging that are damaging our kids’ health. This warning includes scientific evidence showing that specific chemicals in foods and food containers may have a negative impact on hormones and child development and growth. More specifically, the AAP is asking adults to reduce the amount of processed meat consumed during pregnancy, increase the amount of whole fruit and vegetables eaten, and to limit the use of plastic food containers for both storage and heating of foods. These food-related activities all can interfere with the body’s natural hormone levels and throw them into havoc. At the same time, all of the aforementioned steps can help reduce children’s exposure to chemicals in food and food packaging. Read about immune-boosting lunch box ideas for k
