In the Swiss Family Robinson Tree House at the Magic Kingdom, look down at the table setting. Find a pineapple. The hidden mickey is touching the pineapple. This is more easily found by looking down at it.

Chicken and pan fried french fries at Cosmic Rays in Disney’s Magic Kingdom. A gluten free meal that tasted decent with service that was better than I expected. This was a fast food restaurant where the manager brought us the GF meal.

Sometimes you can get a bit of help at Town Hall in Disney’s Magic Kingdom when all the major rides are shut down simultaneously. The person we talked with did a good job at not making us think we were crazy for asking. Sure there are other things to do. But the kids were there to get on some rides and I didn’t want to entertain the thought of them entertaining themselves in the shops.

Disney’s Pop Century Resort’s food court has gluten free items upon request. I have had pancakes (Bob’s Red Mill) and waffles here. Be sure to get the pure maple syrup they have in the back.

Some requested gluten free banana pancakes at a character breakfast at 1900 Park Fare in Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort in Florida. This restaurant also suprised me with gluten free baked muffins.
The muffins did it. They gave me the same experience that the rest of my non-gluten free party had for breakfast.
1900 Park Fare was the only Disney restaurant we visited that was 100% in the full gluten free experience.
The other Disney restaurants still fail in 100% complete experience where I am restricted to a prepackaged brownie, creme brule, fruit, blended fruit, or frozen blended fruit. It gets old real quick. These restaurants all knew in advance a minimum of 60 days my request of something other than the above. Anything baked with the same care as the rest of my gluten laden party had would have been a real treat. It doesn’t take a lot of care to open a prepackaged brownie does it. That is why the muffins were such a treat.
We did have some valiant efforts. There were some places got really close to the 100% experience, but these failed on simple employee communication.

Check out the TV in the lobby of Disney’s Grand Floridan Resort. On the top you can find a hidden mickey.

One thing comes to mind when viewing the space station section here. Gluten free would be much easier to handle. Every thing that is pre-packaged here wouldn’t have any surprises.

You can find these brownies at many places in the Disney theme parks. They are an excellent choice. Be sure you do not get one that has been sitting around too long. These should be fresh and tasty.
Also make a fuss when it is a choice between these and fruit at all Disney sit down meals. By sit down, I mean that your desert should cost more than the $2.00 or less Disney buys these for. The chef should work to provide similar service to all guests, not just the ones that are easy and can still tolerate pre-manufactured foods.
Don’t get me wrong. These are great. The people I have talked to at www.okbrownie.com are great. They just don’t belong as dessert at an expensive meal. It degrades the value of the meal as well as degrading the value of the brownie. Let’s just say it is like fish and peanut butter. Both can be excellent individually.
