Summary

Len starts this week's podcast off with his impressions of Disney Springs' newest eateries, Chicken Guy! and Terralina Crafted Italian. Mr. Testa then shares his thoughts about how Epcot's International Food & Wine Festival could be improved (i.e., Ice Cream 'round the World). Then Jim uses the closure of "A Bug's Land" at Disney California Adventure Park as an excuse to look back at the closing of "Mr. Toad's Wild Ride" at WDW's Magic Kingdom as well as offering a construction update on the TRON Lightcycle coaster.

0:00.0	Welcome back to another edition of the Disney dish podcast with Jim Hill. It's me, Lantesta, and this is our first episode for September of 2018.
0:07.6	Welcome, welcome to the last third of the year. On this week in Disney history, the Morocco Pavilion opens in Epcot and I believe
0:16.2	1986. This is unique in that it's the government of Morocco as the sponsor, not a company.
