Multi-Allergy Dining Review

[Moonies]

We're dining at GF twice (once for 1900 Park breakfast and once for the Afternoon Tea) is there any point in trying to get in touch with them ahead of time so I can make sure that I have something to eat, or is it just better there to be vigilant for yourself?

I would definitely contact Special Diets so the chefs can have a heads up that you're coming. Definitely do your homework ahead of time to know which of the packaged products are safe but I don't think you need to specifically contact anywhere in particular ahead of time. If you have specific questions then definitely ask them but I don't think it's necessary to say "please have the chef at xyz contact me".

I did the Special Diets route already and have their lists of pre-packaged. I'm not super concerned, just curious as some people have done different routes but I'm glad to know that there are different ways.

Thanks so much for your reviews- I'm feeling much better about our upcoming trip with our DD with multiple food allergies!

I have a ton of food allergies and get very anxious when eating anything new.

I just wanted to second the concern of the Chef's knowledge at Tusker House.
I have had reactions the last two times eating there.

I was also told things were safe at 1900 Park Fair Dinner when I knew they were not.

Hollywood and Vine Chef also try to tell me things were safe when they were not.

I have 2 weeks to left to plan for our trip to Disney World with my two sons allergic to Gluten, Dairy, Egg and Peanut. We have never eaten in a restaurant. Do I need to make reservations every where we go? How can I pick which restaurants to go to? Thanks.

Most Disney restaurants can accommodate easily. The best way to go about it is to email SpecialDiets@disneyworld.com. They'll give you a list of all the restaurants that can accommodate you in terms of counter service and ask you to fill out a form if you have any reservations at the table service (sit down) meals.

Thanks for posting your reviews!!!! We just got back from our GF/CF journey through the World, and I wouldn't have been so relaxed about everything had I not spoken with you first!!!

My DD LOVED the EnerG chocolate bars, but the only place that I could find them was in Epcot at the CS near Soarin'. I never did find the place in DTD, and I am very sad that I wasn't able to allow my DD the ability to get whatever in that place! As we all know that barely ever happens for a GF/CF child!

Thanks for posting, it's very appreciated!!
