My Pixar Place Expansion

As part of this week’s #ImagineeringFriday, we are expanding Pixar Place.  The rules of the expansion state we need to create: 3 new attractions, a new table-service restaurant, a new quick-service restaurant, and a new meet and greet.  I am choosing Paris from Ratatouille as the theme for the expansion.  The area is going to have the Arc de Triomphe as the hub for the expansion.  Off of each “mini-street” will be one of the attractions, the quick-service restaurant, and finally the meet and greet.
