Episode 300 – Top 3 Resort Restaurant Gems! Top 3 Resort Restaurant Gems! Hey everyone, I’m Mike, she’s Sophie, that’s Brenda, and he’s Grogu, and We’re On the Road with Mickey! This is episode 300, and in this episode we are sharing our Top 3 Resort Restaurant Gems! We wanted to share with you some of our go-to restaurants outside of the parks! Here’s what we talked about: Cheddar from the Big Cheese: Sophie: The EPCOT International Flower & Garden Festival doesn’t start until March 4th, but the topiaries for the event are starting to arrive! Will you be at Walt Disney World during the festival? Mike: I didn’t realize this, but The Seas Pavilion (originally named The Living Seas) just turned 40 years old at EPCOT! To commemorate the anniversary, new leafy sea dragon plants were installed in the nursery on the second floor of the pavilion. Congratulations to 40 years at EPCOT! Even though the pavilion didn’t open until January 15, 1986, it was being planned out since before opening day of EPCOT in 1982. Brenda: The incredible Voices of Liberty put on their annual Presidents Day tribute called “Songs of Freedom”. In this performance, they celebrate the service, the storytelling, and the voices that continue to shape America’s story. Connect with us!
