New rides like Remy’s Ratatouille Adventure is now open at EPCOT and Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind will take off next year.
Accompanying all the new shows, fireworks, and rides is a collection of dishes, many honoring day one attractions at the Magic Kingdom, including a hamburger for “Mr. Toads Wild Ride” and a “20,000 Leagues Under the Sea” drink.
“We have been working on this, the food and beverage basket, for two years now and to your question we always want to make it taste great — we will make it look right but it’s fun,” said Disney Executive Chef Robert Gilbert.
The celebrations will continue for the next 18 months.
