I developed a gluten allergy about 2 months ago. I went from having absolutely no issues to where even the smallest amount of gluten exposure from cross contamination will cause me to break out in an itchy rash. So this has been quite an adjustment for me.
We have a cruise planned for March on the Magic, and I've been researching my options. There are so many things that I'm going to miss eating on the cruise. The black truffle pasta pursettes at the top of the list. A lot of the items marked as gluten free on the menus don't excite me, but I've read that DCL can make a lot of their dishes gluten free if given advanced notice so I'm hopeful at least a few of my favorites can be modified for me. Can anyone share their experience with getting dishes that aren't marked as gluten free on the menu modified to be gluten free?
Some of the changes I would expect to be relatively easy to make. For example, the beef tenderloin on the Animator's Palate menu isn't marked as gluten free, but I'm guessing the gluten is in the barbecue reduction or the seasoning so they could prepare mine without that.
I love the roasted rack of lamb served in Lumiere's. It comes with some herbed breading on the lamb. Has anyone requested the lamb be made gluten free? What about the escargot appetizer? Again, I think it is made with breadcrumbs.
How about at Palo brunch? I read somewhere the chicken parm can be made gluten free. Do they have a gluten free flatbread?
I'd appreciate any experiences people have had.
