Hello! Good to "meet" you!

I know that PassPorter has a special guide for Disneyland, and I'm sure one of the guides who worked on the DL book will give you some more info.

Disney is pretty consistent with quality and attention to guests, so I would be surprised if you did not get the same consideration for your allergies in DL. Since I've never been to DL, though, I won't say for certain!

I am certain that someone who had been to DL will be on soon to give you a definite answer to your question.

Please let us know if you have any other questions.

Hope you have a magical trip!

Basically you talk to the chef or manager. I can give you hints if you tell me what allergies you have. The gluten free list is at times out of date. All other allergens say to see the chef.

I have asked people to go to another site and get my database but nobody will help. I wrote the ultimate guide to DLR gluten free dining with comments on other allergens.

Most important is how allergic you are and knowing what brands they use. I can go to any website and read the ingredients for Heinz mayo and ketchup or Edy's/Dreyer's ice cream. How easy depends on the severity of the allergies, complexity, and the allergens themselves.

I sleep from 6 am to 5 pm for aboutu 3 to 6 hours a day so as you can see I am asleep right now.

If you need you can also email Chris and Bill.
Disneyland - Gluten Free in SD
They have their emails.

night night

Laurie

Generally I adapt and do fine with my limitations thought it can be very frustrating like at the carnation cafe where they gave me a hot dog bun hold the onions and cheese with a chunk of ground steak. ooh veggies. I poured ketchup on it and swallowed it but left the veggies. This is the first time I was served that garbage at a DLR park. GF does not mean cheese and onion free. I have SID and crave and love grilled cheese sandwiches, grilled cheese and ham sandwiches and philly steak sandwiches. I was so looking for what I crave and love, melted cheese and cooked onions but just sat there looking at that plain food.

They are trying hard at DLR but some restaurants are small and outdated. Love the cheddarburgers at Taste Pilots as they have gluten free buns and I never get sick except a tiny buzz from the cheese. now that is something to sleep on, thoughts of food.

I don't have any experience with DL but we went last year to WDW and dealt with more than one food allergy with DS. Everyone we talked to was very helpful. The chef at CM's went above and beyond what we were expecting.

I'm sure they are just as great to work with as those at WDW. I would expect any thing from Disney. Hopefully someone who has been to DL will respond soon. Otherwise I would maybe contact person at WDW and see if they give you the name of the person to contact at DL. If you need that information send me a PM.

Here's what I got right from Disneyland's site.
"Special dietary needs — including vegetarian and medically restricted diets — can often be accommodated at select table-service restaurants. Please request special meals at least 24 hours in advance at (714) 781-DINE (3463)"
I think you should give them a call & discuss your needs directly with them.

I am in agonnnnnnnnyyyyyy, ouch ouch. Just back from Granville Restaurant at the Disneyland Hotel.

The chef talked to me about my diet, very nice dude. They have Energ brand of gluten free. They have a sorbet that is dairy free in theory OOWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW

He started me off with field greens, onions, tomato slices, and cucumbers drizzled iwth balsamic vinegar and oil iwth mustard for dressing. Then cam 7 ounces of filet mignon but they do not put bacon on theirs, thankfully. It had onions and green herbs on the side. It was so tender and just gray enough to be perfect for me. There was this heaping pile of smasthed taters that was sheer blish. I got pretty full.

Dessert was a long white platter maybe 8 nches deep and over a goot wide it seems. There was banilla scoop and chocolate scoop of Dreyer's ice cream. The left was vanilla with a chcoate disc in the shape of a Mickey head with a white face. It was circled with lemon syrup. On the right the chocolate had a spring of mint and was circled by raspberry syrup. Around the chocolate was bits of hard stuff taht is supposed to be chocolate but seemed more like cooca bean, not sure.

Now you know why I am in pain, I ate and ate and ate and ate and am about to burst.

For dairy talk to the chefs is their answer. I can go expoliriing if I ever get back to parks but the car is a gonner and I will have to use the scooter for shopping.

In theory you should be fine with the tortillas. REad the menus and do write Bill as he is a nice guy. Nap time, not supposed to do chocolate and dairy lol. They done spoiled me again.

Dole whips have a bit of cassein in them so they are lactose free but not totally vegan or dairy free.
