Dining

Get Sum Dim Sum! is a Disney-fied take on a Dim Sum establishment, serving many different themed morsels, designed with both the spirits of Disney parks and familiar dishes in mind. The menu also contains a variety of teas to complete the experience.

The aesthetics are fairly simplistic, but still contain some flair. The building itself is a generalized take on classic Chinese architecture, with the inside walls being painted with murals of dragons and landscapes, and the ceiling being decorated with paper lanterns.

It should also be noted that the restaurant does a lot to make the experience more accesible for the average park visitor, with the menu's displaying pictures of all the items on offer to account for the fact most guests will not be familiar with the food being served.

The Confucius restaurant looks like a hybrid between Chinese and Roman architecture, large columns holding up the roof and decorated with Chinese mythical creatures, wrapping around the pillars, and looking up to the dome-shaped roof, this roof itself topped with a Sun Wukong statue happily pointing upwards ala Mr. Toad. As you enter the restaurant, the walls depict bas-relief scenes of Chinese history, mostly from the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, and interestingly, the heads of the bas-relief sculptures will actually move, similar to the ESPN Zone’s bas-reliefs. Once patrons enter the doors, they see a fountain decorated with Journey To The West characters and iconography, as the centerpiece of the waiting area. An animatronic Confucius is at the end of the waiting area near the doors, and he is the first of the animatronics. Whenever diners are admitted, he will say a proverb to the diners as a pre-show.

Entering the restaurant tables, you may notice the theming of the exterior continues, tables are decorated with images of Chinese mythical creatures, and the chairs look like they’re made of bamboo. A Confucius figure is seen at the center of the bar area seating, once again giving proverbs. However, Zhu Baijie takes the stage instead, another animatronic that regales customers with references and puns to Chinese folklore, including his own story. He’s not a total doofus; and is one to give warnings about the alcoholic products sold at the bar. Once you come to the regular seats, you get your menu. This menu too has proverbs, in fact, dishes are named for his sayings; such as “a journey of a thousand miles begins with this step” (A dish of egg noodles with bamboo shoots, snap peas, water chestnuts, green beans, and carrots), “roads were made for journeys” (a dish of braised pork with bamboo shoots on rice, shaped to look like Scales the Dragon...or is it Figment?), and “the funniest people are the saddest ones” (a set of rice, broccoli, and daikon dumplings with soy sauce arranged to look like Spider-Man’s head), with the goal of the animatronic to sort of guide customers to dishes. Every 2 hours, lights on the ceiling begin to glow, and will keep glowing in Aurora borealis patterns for 1 hour. At the exit, another Confucius animatronic wishes you well.

Sugarglow Bakery Is a Take-out bakery that's played fairly straight, with it serving several Chinese baked goods, such as Sun Cakes, with another thing of note being seasonal goods that don't fit in the typical "Christmas & Halloween" outline, such as Moon Cakes. The establishment also serves coffee.

The bakery isn't too ground breaking aesthetics wise, but it does sets itself apart with a slightly more modern design, with this being displayed through the neon signs of baked goods that are hung up on the wall.
