Guest guest Posted November 11, 2005 Report Share Posted November 11, 2005 Well Greese sort of does also ... Except their " Lasagna Noodle " looks more like thin slices of eggplant that seperates the layers of ground lamb.... [poor little guy]. I have made a great moosaka (moo'-sa-ka ... not moo-saaaaaka) very vegan with TVP, lemtals, firm Tofu, potatoes and spices ... nutmeg, cloves, coreander, allspice..etc. I will have to make this again and keep track of quanities.

Guest guest Posted December 18, 2006 Report Share Posted December 18, 2006 They are really very accommodating, just speak to the waiter or call ahead of time and they will make sure to have something for you. They are very good about trying to have something for everyone there and people with allergies too, so its nothing new for them. They are always trying to make it The Happiest Place On Earth! ) Rachel ~ http://www.thelucastribe.com ~ KUSTOMIZED KIDS ~ http://www.cafepress.com/kustomizedkids Baby & Kids, Pregnancy, Natural Parenting, Wedding, & Personalized Clothing Designs Christmas designs are up! - sammythingy Monday, December 18, 2006 9:03 AM A Veggie in Mickey's House halo.

Guest guest Posted December 18, 2006 Report Share Posted December 18, 2006 They have Vegetarian Chili in a Bread Bowl that is very good in at least a couple of places in the park. It's been a couple of years since we were there(We've been there so many times), but we seemed to find plenty to eat there. There are pizza, veggie sandwiches/wraps, salads, and more. Everything is pricy as you might imagine. We also found good Vegetarian food over at the Wilderness Lodge. Loved the atmosphere of the Wilderness Lodge too. Over in the Disney's Contemporary Resort this is one of our very favorite places to eat. It is a buffet that has excellent food and tons that a Vegetarian can eat. Disney Characters parade thru, with a disney song playing every few minutes and they stop and visit with all the dinners. Take your camera with you, so you can take pictures of your family with them. It is really fun. You can get to it by the Monorail that goes right into this Resort. Chef Mickey's Restaurant http://www.disney.ca/vacations/disneyworld/II/B/8/restaurants.shtml Located on the fourth floor of Disney's Contemporary Resort, this enormous buffet offers a wide variety of delicious items for the whole family. Relax as the monorail quietly zips by overhead and your favourite Disney Characters greet you at your table as you dine. Special celebration song for all occasions. Call and make reservations once you get there, or you might not be able to get in.

Guest guest Posted December 18, 2006 Report Share Posted December 18, 2006 I am so thrilled you asked this question because we are going in March and I am so nervous about eating anything there. We are from VT so we can't pack too many food items for 7 days. Steph Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted December 18, 2006 Report Share Posted December 18, 2006 I think my biggest thing will be keeping snacks in the hotel, and making sure I have stores of protein (almonds, etc. ) on hand. (I know they have a no-food policy, but my understanding is that it's not too strictly enforced. I know too that you can get things like fresh fruit and popcorn for snacks, but my biggest concern is moderatley priced meals. (My husband is a...thrifty...omnivore, who loves things like buffets, where I can get lettuce, pineapple and a stale roll...). I'll give a full report on my return, beacuse besides being a veg, I also LIVE for good food, and hope to only have a positively delicious experience! I know the Mickey won't let me down!!!!

Guest guest Posted December 19, 2006 Report Share Posted December 19, 2006 I know your original email said you'd seen everything online, but for anyone else, and in case you missed this site, here is where you can find the menus for each restaurant at Disney World: http://allearsnet.com/menu/menus.htm Be sure to check on the left side, there are links to articles on vegetarian and vegan dining in the parks. As for personal experience, my top recommendation for dinner would be Boma, not located in a park but at the Animal Kingdom Lodge. It is absolutely worth the trip. It's a buffet with many vegetarian (and non) options. Boma also has a breakfast buffet that is also incredible (the Frunch juice is so good, and they'll bring as much as you can drink!). The other buffet options will not make you depend on salad or rolls. The Tangierine Cafe in the World Showcase portion of EPCOT has a very good vegetarian platter - it's more of a fast-food place. If there is somewhere particular you'd like to go, Disney is known for bending over backwards to accomodate special dietary needs if there is nothing on the menu - you can speak to the hostess before you sit, but if you call the restaurant the day before they really will come up with something special for you. I've never had any problem at Disney World. I would suggest checking over the menus online though - it was a surprise that neither the fast food nor the sit down Mexican restaurants in EPCOT offer any vegetarian entrees. Have a great time!

Guest guest Posted December 19, 2006 Report Share Posted December 19, 2006 I work at WDW and have never had a problem finding vegetarian dishes at any restaurant. Most have a vegetarian selection, and if not, will accomodate you request. Boma is my favorite as well. The Moroccan full service restaurant at Epcot has a vegetable couscous dish that is also very good. France also has a vegetarian lasagna dish. Even the Le Cellier steakhouse in Canada has an vegetarian offering. Some fast food places in all the parks have veggie burgers. Tusker House in Animal Kingdom has a hummus sandwich, In Magic Kingdom, there is a fast food restaurant that has both vegetarian chili in a sour dough bread bowl and the hummus sandwich. I could go on and and, so if you have any questions, you can e-mail ne privately.

Guest guest Posted December 19, 2006 Report Share Posted December 19, 2006 I am a veterinary technician at Disney's Animal Kingdom, so between working with all the beautiful animals and having access to the parks and all the restaurants at the resorts as well I am pretty lucky.

Guest guest Posted December 19, 2006 Report Share Posted December 19, 2006 we are going to Disney in March we live in VT I would love all info you could give me especially the cheapest and healthiest bites. I don't have a fortune for food but don't want the kids to be sick all week because they only ate fast food. Thanks for all your help. We are vegetarians not vegan.

Guest guest Posted December 19, 2006 Report Share Posted December 19, 2006 Not really sure, but it has French cheeses and a French sauce instead of the traditional italian offering. I've had it a fe time, and it is very light and very tasty. Surprisingly, the italian restaurant only has a cheese platter for us vegetarians, but that does not help a vegan. , " Guru K " <greatyoga wrote: > > Liz > > Why does France have a lasagna dish?

Guest guest Posted December 19, 2006 Report Share Posted December 19, 2006 On their website you can find something called the dining plan/meal package where you can purchase ahead of time and so its cheaper over all. You get a certain amount of things at each meal with the dining plan. Just get it in your mind now that its expensive there. Even the fast food is going to cost more, even the ones outside the park. You have to be willing to pay more there, just the way it is. It sucks, but its better to be prepared ahead of time. ) Rachel ~ http://www.thelucastribe.com ~ KUSTOMIZED KIDS ~ http://www.cafepress.com/kustomizedkids Baby & Kids, Pregnancy, Natural Parenting, Wedding, & Personalized Clothing Designs Christmas designs are up! we are going to Disney in March we live in VT I would love all info you could give me especially the cheapest and healthiest bites.
