Is this WoL or new building?

@marni1971 was this your "I'm hungry" clue you dropped earlier?

Also, I'm assuming this doesn't open next month with the refurb correct?

This is great! Classic EPCOT could've done this.

Can't wait to check out the details. Although I have little confidence in Patina, whose other EPCOT restaurants suck.

Stoked about this!!!

Yes and correct

This was the best surprise of the D23 panel. I'm excited to eat in space! So, no IP for this one?

It's sort of a budget-conscious way to get that "I'm living in space" feel for an hour or so. Will cost a lot less than the Star Wars resort.

If this is going into the WOL space, do we have an idea if it will wait until after Food & Wine? They usually use that space as a Festival Center, I think - at least they did for Flower & Garden Festival.

@marni1971 said it will NOT be taking over WOL.

Very excited to see how this comes about. Future World has needed another restaurant for the longest time.

I have a feeling that WoL is being used in some capacity whether its the building or just the land.

 

[danlb_2000]

Martin said it would be attached to Mission Space, so I am guessing it will use this space...

 

[Texas84]

This will be an impossible ADR.

 

[Timothy_Q]

This was the best announcement today.

Feels very Epcot, makes sense next to MS, doesn't take away anything else, no IP attached, a much-needed restaurant to this side of FW

Thanks - had obviously missed seeing that - appreciate it. I have never once set foot onto Mission: SPACE out of protest that Horizons was removed, but I am looking forward to the Space restaurant.

I'm assuming this is going into the HP office space if WOL is safe.

I'm so thrilled about this! It's about time they got an outer space reastaurant at Epcot! I wonder what kind of food they will serve

You got it.

I'm curious what sort of menu this will have. The idea is great (and I love that it connects to the pavilion, which was originally supposed to have more to do there anyways), but I have no idea what 'Space Food' would be.

Maybe have a menu based on all the cool, unique stuff at LWTL and call it futuristic food?

 

[NiarrNDisney]

Maybe my hope for a modern Molecular Gastronomy inspired menu will finally come to fruition in the World!
Yes Jose Andres is coming to Disney Springs with his take on the style of food but he doesnt go as modern he tends to stick to more conservative applications in his menu.
