Disney4me Posted January 17, 2019 Report Share Posted January 17, 2019 Epcot is busy with the International Festival of the Arts starting this Friday — we’ll be reporting live from opening day — but we still found new must-have food-themed merchandise being added to the shops as well as new drinks, sweet eats, teas, and construction progress — we’ve got it all covered! Hello from Epcot Let’s jump in with that brand new space-themed restaurant near Mission: Space opening in 2020! Epcot Construction Update New Space-Themed Restaurant Progress We learned a little bit more about this location in November, including that it will have the feeling of being a part of the International Space Station, and staffed by cast members from around the world. New Epcot Space-Themed Restaurant Construction Progress The new restaurant, located between Mission: Space and Test Track, is scheduled to open in 2021, but we’ve heard hiring is starting now!

You can enjoy a “Lovestruck Latte” made with dark chocolate, caramel, and coconut! There’s a “Sinful & Sweet White Mocha Latte” made with white chocolate and blackberry. You can indulge in spirited versions of these with Baileys, Vodka, Kahlua, or Jameson. Joffrey’s Valentines Menu In Norway’s Kringla Bakeri og Kafe we confirmed the return of those oh-so-sweet Troll Horns! Welcome Back! Troll Horns at Kringla Bakeri og Kafe While we were there we also picked up this very healthy looking Sven’s Apple Cheesecake. If your dessert looks just like a piece of fruit it counts as fruit, not a dessert, right? Sven’s Apple Cheesecake at Kringla Bakeri og Kafe Read our review of this sweet treat here!

Beauty and the Beast at Glaskunst The Belle Meet and Greet location in France has moved to a new location. You’ll now find Belle near the construction scrims and close to where you can also meet Aurora along the “riverfront” looking over towards International Gateway.
