We continue from Refreshment Outpost and Cuisine Classique.

The Painted Panda should look familiar to anyone that’s visited any of the other 47 Festivals that Epcot hosts every year, but if not, you’ll find it waterside across from the rest of the Pavilion.

We continue on from The Artist’s Table.
