Earlier today it was announced that Avengers Campus will open at Disney California Adventure park on June 4th. This news comes right on the heels of learning about the new ticket and reservation system that Disneyland will use while faced with reduced capacity restrictions imposed by the state of California. Here is a rough look at the food options in Avengers Campus – undoubtedly there is more information to come, so stay tuned for that.
Food at Avengers Campus
Based on the premise of Pym Particles from the Ant Man franchise, at the Pym Test Kitchen, Ant-Man and the Wasp have been using Pym Particle technology to shrink or supersize everything on the menu. Red particles shrink the food, blue particles make things bigger. Regular-sized pretzels come out several times larger after traveling through a quantum tunnel. The ‘Not So Little Chicken Sandwich’ is made with a normal-size bun on top of a chicken breast that’s so big it takes up nearly the entire plate.
A “Pym-ini” sandwich blasted with blue Pym Particles grows to be two feet long and nine inches wide. Don’t worry if you don’t have enough friends with you to eat the whole thing. “It’s so big that we have to slice portions off,” Disneyland Resort Culinary Director Jeremiah Balogh said. Another dish features pasta under giant vegetarian meatballs served in an oversized spoon with a tiny fork.
The test kitchen will feature giant cans of Pingo Doce soda (another Easter egg) and upsized condiment bottles.
Next door, a huge beer can marks the Pym Tasting Lab where adults can get a lager or a beer cocktail. There’s a reverse draft system that fills glasses from the bottom. (Think of that scene from “Thor: Ragnarok” when the Son of Odin’s magical beer mug refills itself when it’s empty.) You can order a craft beer, ranging from a blood orange hefeweizen to an amber lager, or try one of the Pym Research Staff’s Pym Particle-infused cocktail experiments. Both locations will offer mobile ordering via the Disneyland App (make sure you download the app!).
Near the Guardians ride, Terrans Treats will serve colorful, spiral-shaped galactic churros and crispy cream puffs filled whipped raspberry cheesecake mousse.
Shawarma Palace – What would Avengers Campus be without shawarma? New York City’s Shawarma Palace is an Avengers favorite (and has been since they first tried the local joint following the Battle of New York). By special request of Earth’s Mightiest Heroes, the Shawarma Palace crew is opening up a location within Avengers Campus that will serve a fragrant chicken shawarma and garlic sauce, as well as an Impossible™ plant-based falafel version. Look for the cart that’s decked out with Avengers memorabilia.
