Mellow mushroom-Foley,AL

I love pizza! Pizza is something that I miss dearly.  Pizza just is not the same without cheese. The mellow mushroom is a fun family pizza chain that I feel safe to eat at.  There regular crust is vegan and they offer Daiya cheese. Just ask with no parmesean cheese or garlic butter.  They also have a gluten free crust for those with a gluten allergy. I am not sure if the gluten free crust is dairy free or vegan as well.  I asked for a clean cutter and she said they do that anyways! So glad we have a safe place to eat pizza! Oh, and it's delicious too. Foley is worth the drive from Gulf Shores, orange beach,  and ft. Morgan. Mellow mushroom is a little bit expensive but its worth feeling safe, and I always have leftovers.

Tacky Jacks 2-fort morgan alabama

We went to tacky Jacks 2 and it was a treat! I got the ribeye steak, and so happy I did. There was no sides I felt comfortable with.  They made my steak on the grill and not the flat top,because they use margarine on the flat top.
They accidentally put fries on my steak. The server checked and the fries only had egg ingredients.  So I could eat the fries!!!The steak was cooked to order and delicious. 

Hatfield vs McCoy's- pigeon forge

This is another dinner show that I didn't think I could go to.  I called to see if they had a allergy menu and they did! They added my milk allergy to the reservation. The dinner show was all you can eat. The pork was so good. The show was funny and was nice to be with my family and enjoy a normal thing like a normal person. Our server was great.  I had to wait on a few food items to get refilled because mine was made seperate, but that was totally fine. Overall,  worth the money!

Dixie Stampede-pigeon forge

We had planned a small family vacation to pigeon forge. My family had scheduled us to go to the Dixie stampede.  I told them I didn't want to go because it was a waist of money for me to go and not eat.  I called before we canceled and found out they have a allergy menu! I was so excited.  We had it on our reservation that I was allergic to dairy, and informed the server that I'm the one with the allergy when we arrived. She was amazing! The kitchen and the waitress took care of my food.  I even got a dessert! The food was delicious and the show was so much fun.  It was so worth the money because I could actually eat and enjoy my time with my family. 

Black-eyed pea hendersonville Tennessee

We went to visit Nashville, TN for the day. After going to antique archeologies second location we were tired and hungry. My brother and I wanted something different than we could get at home.  We saw the Nolan Ryan restaurant and had to go.  I am always nervous about trying a new restaurant. I was able to get a steak with no butter, plain and a potato. It was delicious.  It wasn't very expensive. Great deal and I felt safe.

Doc's seafood shack golf shores alabama

This is the first time ever a resteraunt wouldn't accommodate me. Waitress told me they use butter on the grill and there too busy to use foil.  She never asked a cool or a manager. We ended up leaving.

disney world

I went to Disney again! I love that place! who doesn't? I honestly did not run into any problems this trip at all! some of my advice
1. have reservations and let them know you have any type of allergy you have. it will take a little time
   a. the chef is required to come take your order.

2. if going to a quick service expect a delay. try to go during an off time.
    a. the manager is required to come out and take your order. they are then required to make your order and bring it to you. how amazing is that?

3. there is now allergy friendly snacks all over the park!!! ask at a food kiosk ask them for the allergy/ ingredients book. they show all the food they are serving

4. just enjoy your time! this is a place you don't have to worry about getting sick! one vacation worry free!!!

Pork steak with gravy

I've never made pork steak and to my recollection eaten it. I coupons the French fried onions and the pork gravy. The gravy is dairy free!!! So exciting. So had to find something to cook with it:) the vintage Corning ware cornflower blue pan makes it all taste so much better. 

I make the green beans fresh this time. I take a bit of salt, pepper, and a bit of sugar. With the green beans take the ends off and break them in half as long as they aren't the stringed kind, wash them and put them in a pan. Let them simmer till there soft, it's really that easy! There's no reason that allergy friendly meals have to be hard. 

Dominos Pizza Greenwood Indiana

So I have not had pizza out in a long long long long time. Have I mentioned a long time? I have always made something at home with dairy free vegan cheese or got papa Murphy's and cooked it here at the house. Thanks to coke rewards we got some free Domionos pizza gift cards. I went hunting through there website and low and behold they have an allergy menu, well an ingredient list. I was excited about that! I ended up calling to make our order and told the guy about my allergy and he was  nice to me and said he wrote it on the order twice. Low and behold, my pizza came to our house delivered correctly! (so I guess I did not really dine out) I am so excited! I am going to order from them again. This was on super bowl Sunday, a busy time for them I am assuming, for them to get a pizza right without cheese and extra toppings and no Parmesan, amazing! It looked like at this time when I am writing this that they had a gluten free pizza crust for those allergic to gluten as well. It seems many pizza places are now offering this as an option now! I am very pleased with Dominos and will be ordering from them again!!

The Spot daytona

This restaurant was not allergy friendly. I wouldn't recommend going here with a allergy. The poor waiter really had no idea what I was talking about when I said I was allergic to milk. He actually recommended something with dairy in it. There is actually a sign up and in the menu that says if you are allergic to seafood do not eat from this restaurant. Needless to say I didn't eat

Daytona beach Florida bubba gump

What a cool restaurant! You have to go to the mall and park to go to this place. I asked to speak to the manager because the two people up front did not know much at all about allergies. The manager was great and explained to me all the different options I could have! I was so happy to be able to have shrimp out for the first time in a long long time. This restaurant is very expensive though, you are paying for the experience, and the food portions are not very big. The food was very good! They used very little oil on my shrimp skewers and it seems like a very healthy option as well. They take allergies very seriously, cook the food in a different skillet that's clean. I enjoyed myself and glad to find somewhere to go out to eat, and treated awesome.

Denny's Indianapolis

I have not been to many breakfast locations for eating out since finding out about my dairy allergy. I have also been trying to lose weight, so eating out is fewer and far between.  I have not been to Denny's in a very very long time. I was very nervous about going to denny's because you just never know, but there is only a few choices at 1 am. Well never forget to ask the waitress or waiter if there is an allergy menu at any restaurant, you never know! I asked my waitress and low and behold they actually have one!

The waitress was amazing and so was the cook. She brought out the menu and was so kind to me and brought me out a delicious meal. The cook cleaned the area and cooked my food to order and did a great job! I will go back again!

Breakfast Dairy Free-Cracker Barrel Ringgold Georgia

I generally do not eat breakfast out, but being on vacation sometimes forces me to eat out. I have eaten a time or two at cracker barrel but never for breakfast. I asked the waitress if if they could make me scrambled eggs without butter or milk. They were able to make the eggs for me and make a small bowl of cut up bananas. Overall the service was great and cracker barrel was a great place to get some local shirts for cheap! Overall it was not amazing food but it did the job!

Ft. Ogelthorpe Georgi O'Charley's

I have been to o'charleys before and it makes me a bit nervous. This location had the allergy menu sitting up front at the hostess stand. Talked to my waitress and ended up ordering a chicken and steak meal wot asparagus. She told me they will cook all my food on foil to prevent the food from cross contamination! Brilliant idea. I am not sure why I have never thought about that before.

The varsity

Honestly I was a bit scared to eat here because its more of a fast food type of restaurant. This type of place is generally not allergy friendly. Well I asked for a allergy menu and they gave ms some info I believe you can find on there website. I ended up with a plain hot dog and burger. I was a bit scared to eat the bread so didn't get that. It's really not amazing and not worth the money.


Varsity Allergy Information

Applebees

We went to applebee's tonight. We really enjoyed it. I was informed that they put there allergies into the computer so everyone knows.I was really surprised how well they treated me with the allergy. They do have a really good allergy menu. I ended up with a new York strip, fruit and applesauce.

Chili's

I did not have a great experience this time. My waiter was ok but overall he seemed to be so busy to even keep our drinks filled. I asked for an allergy menu and they brought me out some paper that it was not valid after 8/31/11. I got a mango tea, which turned out to be nasty, had some type of funny taste to it. I made a decision to just go with a steak because it was probably the safest, and a salad and fruit for sides. The salad tasted really gross. I am not sure what was wrong but it tasted like something had gone bad. I had barely taken a bite and my waiter had not even noticed that I did not touch my salad till the very end of the night. I then got my steak and realized I was not asked how I wanted my steak to be prepared. It was ok but I am just thankful it was not overcooked. I asked him to see what the ingredients of the tortilla chips were and he could not tell me, came and told me because it was not on the allergy approved list it was not ok. I am fairly certain that there is no milk ingredients in tortilla chips but I was not about to try. Overall I was not pleased with the service and the amount of choices that I had available to me. I was overly hungry and I did not feel like I got full at all from chili's. The service was ok he just seemed to be totally busy with something else even though the restaurant was not busy.  Here is a link to there allergy menu, it seems like it changes on a regular basis so check it before you go!
