[quote=Anonymous]Disney has a reputation in the food allergy community of being good at handling food allergies and having a strict protocol.  But I think Raglan Road is an independent restaurant at Disney Springs, so it may not have the same systems in place.

I had something similar happen at a fancy restaurant in DC during a work lunch.  A colleague specifically told the waiter that he had a life threatening egg allergy and asked the waiter to confirm directly with the chef that his salad and dressing were egg free.  The waiter checked and confirmed.  He asked again when the food was served.  Confirmed again.  A few minutes into the meal, after he'd had 4-5 bites, the waiter came and told him that the dressing contained egg as a thickener.  He immediately got up and called an Uber to go to the hospital where he was treated overnight.  He'd had to use the EpiPen in the Uber.  I don't think there was any way my colleague could have been more clear that his allergy was extremely severe.  The restaurant staff just sucked.[/quote]
