There’s always something going on in Epcot — we’ve updated you on the Guardians of the Galaxy Ride and Ratatouille Ride installation as well as Epcot’s Skyliner Station. Today, we’ve got some construction and refurbishment updates from all over the park!
We’ve been keeping you updated on the construction walls that were surrounding the Puffin’s Roost Store attached to the recently re-opened Kringla Bakeri og Kafe in the Norway Pavilion. Well, now those walls are down!
We spotted the Puffin (yep, still there!), but the Puffin’s Roost sign and doors have been removed.
This is what it used to look like with the signs and doors for the gift shop.
Over in Germany, the Bier Cart was recently refurbished. HUZZAH! Now it’s sporting a new awning with “Bier und Brezeln” printed on it. We don’t even need a translator to tell us that this means Beer and Pretzels (as big as your head)!
In Japan, they are keeping busy with the construction of an upcoming brand new signature table-service restaurant. An opening time frame has not yet been announced, but we can’t wait to learn more.
Though it’s not exactly related to construction or refurbishment… we are disappointed to still see that the German Train Village has not added their miniature version of a Food and Wine Festival like they usually do for the Festival. 🙁 We’re hoping this doesn’t mean it won’t be decorated for Epcot’s International Festival of the Holidays, either.
