Space 220 News: Restaurant Searching for New Executive Chef as Theo Schoenegger Returns to Vegas

Space 220, the immersive space-themed restaurant set to open in Epcot’s Future World this winter, appears to be searching for a new executive chef.

A posting on Delaware North’s careers page outlines the position, which requires the chef to “lead by example” and “reinterpret classics”. The restaurant itself is described as “the Height of Dining” — a tongue-in-cheek nod to Space 220’s premise as a restaurant onboard a space station 220-miles above earth.

Space 220 had previously announced that Chef Theo Schoenegger would helm the restaurant, but Wynn Las Vegas announced in early-September that the chef was returning to Sinatra, the casino’s beloved Italian restaurant.

No word on why Chef Schoenegger left the Space 220 project, but we’ll update when a new chef is announced.

  1. There are many renowned chefs who have opened restaurants in WDW. There are also some wonderful dining experiences there too.

  2. This guy finally realized that, although, WDW food is ok it is not really upscale dining and he bailed rather than put his reputation at risk.
