Where you can find it: Pym Test Kitchen at California Adventure
Why we love it: A sandwich shouldn't be this funny, yet here I am. At the Ant-Man -themed Pym Test Kitchen, the comicality of a teeny tiny brioche bun sandwiching a massive plank of fried chicken is only mirrored by its deliciousness. The restaurant's menu parallels the hilarity of Ant-Man and the Wasp's quantum sizing (and resizing), and while this Avengers Campus spot offers a slew of big-and-small items, the chicken sandwich here is king. The schnitzel-like patty is fried to a perfect golden hue, and the shell is ideal: crunchy and textured, but not oily. Squiggles of teriyaki sauce and red chili mayo add light heat and sweetness underneath the pickled cabbage slaw, and while the buns don't contribute much in the way of flavor (there's not much of them to begin with), they add some serious Scott Lang-level playfulness.
Time Out tip: Pym Test Kitchen has a sprawling outdoor patio with oodles of seating. But for the best seat in the house, head to the connected Pym Tasting Lab. Here, true Avengers in the know assemble to mobile order locally brewed beers and fun cocktails, like the X-Periment with tequila and playful popping spheres. And there's even bar seating to have a bird's eye view of all the nearby action in the lively land—you may even spot the Black Panther!

The childhood sweethearts had started dating in 2015, and Emily was heartbroken when Ryan was sent home after a sing off against divisive rapper, Honey G. However, there were only tears of joy on Friday when the couple tied the knot in a stunning ceremony near Glasgow. Emily, 26, shared a series of snaps from her big day on Instagram and captioned them: "Mr & Mrs Lawrie." The singer - who performs under the name ili - looked beautiful in a flowing wedding gown with a sweetheart neckline. Meanwhile Ryan - who writes songs for other artists under the moniker KoolKid - wore a traditional Scottish kilt.

Chris Hemsworth shares 'magical' moment with Robert Downey Jr on The Avengers set

Chris Hemsworth has returned for Disney+'s Limitless where he looks into ways of living better. Chris Hemsworth has opened up on the 'magical' moment he shared on the set of The Avengers with his co-stars. Renowned as Thor, Australian star Chris Hemsworth is part of the iconic The Avengers team, along with Chris Evans' Captain America, Robert Downey Jr's Iron Man, Mark Ruffalo's Hulk, Florence Pugh's Black Widow and Jeremy Renner's Hawkeye. ‌ The 42-year-old took a break from the Marvel franchise to film the second season of Limitless for Disney+ which sees him learning how to live better. ‌ One of the challenges he was given to improve brain power was by learning how to play the drums and perform in front of thousands of people at an Ed Sheeran concert. ‌ During a Q&A for the new series, cognitive scientist Maya Shankar explained that the 42-year-old would have felt collective effervescence, a form of awe experienced when in groups. She added: 'We feel the boundaries between us dissolve, we feel more connected with one another. 'People describe having full blown spiritual experiences in these masses.' Hemsworth then stepped in to share another memory he had when he felt this way. He commented: 'I've had nothing to this degree but I remember being on The Avengers 2 or 3 and there was a fair bit of improvisation happening and 10 different characters in a room and something clicked and a few things came about. ‌ 'Robert Downey Jr afterwards came up and said 'Did you feel that?' 'I said 'Yeah that was quite cool.'' ‌ He continued: 'Every now and again, you tend to orchestrate it and capture it and that's what you're chasing the whole time. 'It's those little moments of magic where everything just falls into place and you're no longer trying to articulate or analyse, it's beyond you.' Five years have gone by since Avengers: Endgame came out but the wait for the next chapter is nearing its end. Hemsworth along with the other Avengers stars are currently working on the follow-up film Avengers: Doomsday. An official release date hasn't been announced just yet but it is expecting to come out sometime in 2026.

Celebrity SAS star reveals the show's ‘greatest ever escape' went unaired and left Ant Middleton fuming

Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) A CELEBRITY SAS: Who Dares Wins star has revealed the show's "greatest ever escape" which went unaired and left Ant Middleton fuming. The Channel 4 show is not for the fainthearted and sees 14 famous faces trying to keep up with almost impossible tasks. Sign up for the Entertainment newsletter Sign up 5 Ant Middleton was left fuming after a star performed an 'escape stunt' on Celebrity SAS Credit: Seven 5 Rugby ace Sam Burgess took part in the Aussie version of the show, which sees Ant back in charge Credit: Seven 5 The sportsman said he performed the 'best escape they had ever seen on the show' but how it was never aired Credit: Seven Celebrity SAS sees former Special Forces members put the celebrity contestants through their paces in an intense training camp. Ant, who was axed from the UK's SAS: Who Dares Wins in 2021, was well known for his tough persona on the show. Now a former celebrity contestant has spilled the beans on an unaired scene that infuriated Ant so much he inflicted a harsh punishment on him. Rugby ace Sam Burgess took part in the Australian version of Celebrity SAS: Who Dares Wins two years ago, which Ant joined after he was axed from the UK show. The sportsman revealed that he was told he performed the "best escape they had ever seen on the show", but how it was never aired Spilling the beans, Sam told The Overlap and Betfair's Stick to Cricket show: 'When I did Celebrity SAS, it was a 15-day course. 20 start and only a few finish it. "By day 12, you're sleep deprived, food deprived, freezing. They'd taught us: if you're captured, try to escape - transport is your best chance. 'We get ambushed, hooded, zip-tied, thrown in stress positions. After two hours, we're loaded into a minibus. "I pop my restraints, peek under the hood and I see one driver, one cameraman, one soldier, no guns. I think I can take these guys." Celebrity SAS star axed after 'lying and cheating' on show - as another quits Continuing, he said: 'I waited for my moment, ripped the soldier's comms off, threw his phone out, choked the driver, 'Pull the f***ing van over now.' He's silent, so I start tugging the wheel. "Told another contestant to pull the handbrake and take the keys. We screech to a stop, throw them out, and I drive off with the others. 'We're free - driving around for 40 minutes - I even thought about going to KFC. Eventually I spot a pub, pull in. Fifteen minutes later, we are surrounded by cars." He the said that Ant wan't happy about his actions, and bestowed a harsh punishment on him. 5 Sam spilled the beans on what really happened when he took part in Celeb SAS Credit: PA "Ant Middleton gets on the bus, they absolutely flog us for 12 hours - tied up, thrown in shipping containers," Sam revealed. "Two contestants quit. None of it ever aired, but they told me it was the best escape they'd had.' Ant spent years fighting for his country during his military career in the Marines and the Paras. He was chief instructor on SAS: Who Dares Wins before he was sacked after a series of blunders. One included a tweet about the Black Lives Matter movement. There was a social media backlash in June 2020 after Ant posted a video of violence at anti-racism protests in London. He tweeted: 'The extreme left against the extreme right. "BLM and EDL are not welcome on our streets, absolute scum. 5 Ant is now at the helm of the Aussie Celeb SAS Credit: Seven "What a great example you are to your future generation. Bravo." The same month, Channel 4 set out a "new and clear commitment" to being an anti-racist organisation and said Ant's tweet 'in no way represent the views of Channel 4'. Discussing what happened for him to lose his job, he told The James Smith podcast: 'Witch hunt? I never thought that existed until the latest shenanigans with SAS UK. 'Ultimately people can see through it and know I was pushed before I could jump.' Speaking about the BLM tweet, Ant also defended himself at the time, telling The Sun: 'If you have half a brain cell you will realise what I was talking about. 'It was the protesters fighting and violence and rioting in broad daylight. Everything I fought for abroad to stop happening on our shores.' Meanwhile, the latest series of the UK's Celebrity SAS has been full of drama. In the first episode, two stars quit, before Love Islanders Chloe Burrows and Tasha Ghouri followed suit in the second instalment. While none of the celebrities handed in their armbands in the latest episode there was still a double exit. The Traitors star Harry Clark was given his marching orders by the furious staff. It came after they noticed he was cutting corners and not pulling his weight. His actions seemed to contribute to former footballer's Adebayo 'The Beast' Akinfenwa's decision to quit, after he shouldered much of the weight of the dinghy Harry's team was trying to transport in a race. With his bad knee flaring up, Adebayo ran out of steam due to the pain and was forced to withdraw when he couldn't continue.
