I’ll Admit It. This EPCOT Pavilion Update Would Change My Life.

By 1 Comment

Tucked inside the Morocco Pavilion at EPCOT, Restaurant Marrakesh has long been a hidden gem that has been closed for years, and we have the perfect idea to revitalize it.

Morocco Pavilion in EPCOT

Since the closing of Disney World in 2020, this once vibrant dining spot has remained largely closed, only occasionally reopening as overflow seating during festivals like the EPCOT International Food & Wine Festival or as a lounge space for Annual Passholders. And while we’ve appreciated having access to the space in any capacity, we can’t help but feel like it’s time for something more permanent. and honestly, something transformative.

Of course, flights and hotels can’t be booked until you know when you’re going, and currently, the 2026 dates haven’t been revealed yet. However, looking at years past, we can make some educated guesses as to when this year’s version of the EPCOT classic is going to kick off.

REVIEW: We Almost Skipped This EPCOT Snack…That Would’ve Been a BIG Mistake

By 1 Comment

If you’ve ever walked through the France Pavilion in EPCOT and felt completely overwhelmed by the pastry case at Les Halles Boulangerie-Patisserie, you are not alone.

There’s so much going on in there that it’s genuinely easy to overlook something spectacular, and that’s exactly what almost happened to us with the Citron. We’d never heard of it. The people standing in line around us had never heard of it either. It wasn’t showing up in the My Disney Experience app, which is probably a big part of why it flies so far under the radar. But it was right there on the menu board, sitting pretty at $7.95, and we figured we had nothing to lose. We’re so glad we went for it.

For many, it’s a must-do every single EPCOT day. But once you’ve ridden it a handful of times, you start noticing things and wishing Disney would tweak a few things. We have some thoughts about what we would love to see changed here. We can’t promise that Disney will make these happen, but this is us politely asking Disney to consider these improvements!
