Allergy Eating in Sydney

Establishment: Fratelli Fresh, various locations Cuisine: Italian Allergy information: they have a number of options which are or can be made dairy, egg, nut and seafood free and their menu clearly lists vegetarian and gluten free dishes. They have also recently added dairy free cheese to their menu Suggestions: The linguine with chili, lemon, rocket, sundried tomato and pangrattato, along with the rosemary focaccia are dairy, egg and nut free and make for a delicious dinner I've previously mentioned that I don't really eat at a lot of Italian restaurants, and I've actually had some pretty patchy experiences at them too, due to cross contamination.

Now us greater western Sydneysiders have our own Ikea, Costco and Lindt factory - clear signs we're catching up! And of course another clear sign of progress is growing food options. Some of my favourite places near where I live are the pubs and breweries which have grown up with the changes in the area. Places like the Fiddler and Ettamogah have reb...

Establishment: Salt Meats Cheese, Broadway Cuisine: Family owned Italian Restaurant Allergy information: Vegan Pizza Night has many dairy, egg, nut and seafood free options Suggestions: Potatoes Pizza! And the Truffle and Mushroom.  While there are now so many more options for allergy-friendly pizza, it can still often be a bit daunting considering the high possibility of cross-contamination with cheese, particularly at Italian restaurants filled with genuinely cheesy pizzas and parmesan shakers floating about everywhere (in the most non-literal sense of course).
