Pym’s Test Kitchen & Tasting Lab

In the heart of Avengers Campus, Pym's Test Kitchen offers a dining experience like no other. Inspired by the world of Ant-Man and the Wasp, this innovative eatery plays with size and proportions, creating a whimsical atmosphere and unique dishes that are a feast for both the eyes and the palate.  Upon entering, you're greeted by a giant pretzel that sets the tone for the playful, larger-than-life theme. The menu features a mix of oversized and shrunken-down items, from the gigantic Pym-ini sandwich to the bite-sized Quantum Pretzel.  One highlight is the Not So Little Chicken Sandwich, where the chicken filet comically outsizes the bun, adding a fun twist to a classic dish.

Resort Hopping - EPCOT Area

While the EPCOT resorts don’t have an eye-catching Monorail wizzing by, they are an easy walk around the lake apart which can be even better on a beautiful Florida day. If you take the Skyliner to EPCOT or exit EPCOT via the International Gateway (between UK and France) you are just moments away from some great resorts to explore. I typically just walk because it’s faster, but there is a Friendship Boat that will go from EPCOT’s International Gateway to Disney's Boardwalk, Yacht and Beach Club, and the Swan and Dolphin before continuing on to Hollywood Studios.  Disney's Beach Club Resort Disney’s Beach Club is light and bright and has a few things worth stopping by for. Beaches and Cream out by the pool is a fast favorite, serving up burgers and shakes along with the famous Kitchen Sink sundae. But they also have a walk up ice cream window to grab a fun shake and stroll along the lake. During the holidays, pop inside the main lobby to see a Gingerbread carousel and get some h...
