Yachtsman Steakhouse – Yacht & Beach Club

No Comments

We recently visited the Yachtsman Steak, located at Walt Disney World’s Yacht and Beach Club, for a gluten free and no xanthan gum dining experience! Known for its aged in-house steaks and New England nautical atmosphere, we had conflicting opinions about our evening here.  How We Got To and Arriving at Yachtsman Steakhouse The Yachtsman Steakhouse is conveniently located to Epcot at The Yacht & Beach Club. We spent the bulk of our day at Hollywood Studios, then took the Skyliner over to Epcot to check out the Festival of the Arts. We highly recommend reservations, ours was at 8:10, […]

Dutch Oven Beef Stew – Easy Gluten Free Comfort Food

No Comments

Cool weather is here, the sun is going down earlier. It is time for all of the stews and soups that you have been waiting for. The ultimate satisfying comfort food! Savory, saucy, beef stew is slow cooked, so it melts in your mouth.  This recipe easily converts to gluten free. Worcestershire sauce is normally gluten free, but be sure to check labels as always. White rice flour or brown rice flour make great thickeners in slow cooking dishes. Almond or coconut flour are also options, but they can add a bit of their flavor to the final product which […]

Best Gluten Free Breakfast in Walt Disney World- Steakhouse 71

No Comments

How much fun is breakfast out at Disney World! But let’s face the truth: Eating breakfast as a gluten free diner (plus additional allergies) at a restaurant is often not worth it. Many breakfast foods, ie. pancakes, waffles, toast, can be substituted with gluten free options that are cardboard tasting, grainy, and just plain unsatisfying. For us, add in the xanthan gum allergy and there are few options left for breakfast.  When The Wave at the Contemporary closed, it was replaced with Steakhouse 71 and the Bottomless Mimosa was added to their menu. Now we’re not going to say the […]

Disney Review: Tony’s Town Square Restaurant

No Comments

Magic Kingdom seems to be one of the trickiest parks to find quality, easy access, gluten free dining. Usually bringing your own snacks and then trekking out of the park to find a decent meal is the best option. A recent discovery, Tony’s Town Square Restaurant is a gluten free and delicious dining choice inside Magic Kingdom! Plus, who doesn’t love the Lady and The Tramp theming? Tony’s Town Square often gets a bad rap for less than desirable dining, but turns out, not only were they attentive to allergies, dinner was delicious and the view can’t be beat!  Tony’s […]

Most Under-rated Restaurant at a Walt Disney World Resort

No Comments

While we have mentioned a favorite Walt Disney World restaurant for gluten free and allergy dining before, ahem…The Hollywood Brown Derby, this is our first review for another favorite, Toledo which is located at the top of Gran Destino Tower in Disney’s Coronado Springs Resort. Being at the top of Gran Destino offers expansive views of Disney’s Hollywood Studios to Animal Kingdom and beyond. It’s definitely worth it to arrive early for dinner, grab a drink from the lounge and enjoy the views on the deck outside of the lounge.  Toledo’s menu, we felt, had more to offer overall than […]

Brown Derby Cobb Salad  Have you tried the Brown Derby’s Cobb Salad at Disney’s Hollywood Studios? It is the king of salads! Everything is chopped in  ¼” pieces and they toss it right at your table melding all those flavors together!

Prepared or bottled dressings often contain xanthan […]
