Mama Mia! Buddy Valestro recently opened a new Italian restaurant in San Antonio, Texas. My family and I had been waiting a long time for it to open and we finally got to enjoy Italian food made from recipes of none other than the Valestro family.
Of course, we were a little concerned about the accommodations that John would need. He called ahead about a week before and spoke to the head chef, Daniel Nenec. After a long conversation, Daniel and John came up with a menu that would work with his dairy allergy.
When we arrived we checked in with the hostess who immediately acknowledged us. She said we would be seated at a table that had been flagged for John's allergy. Our servers had been informed about his condition prior to our arrival. They brought bread to our table but had a special loaf made just for John which did not contain dairy. I was truly impressed.

Dessert plans for John had already been established. He had non-dairy gelato that did not contain any artificial colors. I had the tiramisu which was served in a cute little jar.
Although we are finding more restaurants willing to accommodate food allergies, it can sometimes still be a hassle. However, Buddy V's made it completely hassle and worry free. John and I enjoyed every minute of our time at this restaurant.
