With Soarin' and a revitalized World Celebration, seems to be an odd choice to shut up shop by late afternoon.

Honestly, Sunshine Seasons seems to have become an afterthought and I have no idea why. The breakfast offering is one hot item with a bunch of premade pastries, and the lunch/“dinner” menu is pretty limited. For a space designed, and formerly used, for much more it’s appallingly limited these days.

I don’t get it. I used to love Sunshine Seasons (and it used to--on theme—showcase lots of fresh ingredients and high quality salads). They opened Connections and act like that’s enough for the entire front of the park, where almost all of the rides are. Ever been to Connections on a rainy summer late afternoon? It gets slammed.

I miss being able to spend several hours in The Land on a rainy day between its two rides, show, and good food. I am not sure why they have worked to lessen the amount of time we spend in all of these enormous pavilions that were built the way they are because of Florida weather.

It's almost like they designed this particular pavilion to have a logical guest traffic flow, starting with the theater show, then LwtL, then Kitchen Kabaret, then the food offerings. Strange... 🤔

Sunshine Seasons is woefully underutilized. Only TDO knows why.

I remember when sunshine seasons was the best place to eat at Epcot well for a vegetarian anyway my go-to was always the grilled cheese and tomato soup but they used to have lots of nice fresh options gave me a subway kinda feeling

Slot in Night Ranger and I may actually trade some shifts to go to some concerts... A good list for once!
