One of our favorite collaborations with Disney recently has been with Formula 1. From seeing Mickey and friends in their racing outfits, the cool cars, and especially the souvenirs, this collab has truly been one for the books.

EPCOT has never been short on dining options that double as experiences.

Grilled Snapper
From the global flavors around World Showcase to the character breakfasts and themed sit-downs scattered through, EPCOT’s restaurants are often just as much a draw as the park’s rides. Some of these spots have become bucket-list dining destinations, not necessarily because the food is unforgettable, but because of the atmosphere that surrounds every bite. That’s exactly the case for one of the park’s most unique restaurants, and unfortunately, we’ve got some closure news to share about it.
