Through Nov. 3, each day of Taste of Space brings something new. Returning for a fourth year, Taste of Space: Fall Bites! brings a selection of special menu items featuring autumnal flavors, all of which will be available across several restaurants throughout the visitor complex. Think harvest bowls, flaky pear galette, lamb meatballs and local beer brews.
