Food Allergy Update

September 30, 2014

Grand Palladium Resorts, which currently has 14 all-inclusive resorts in Mexico’s Riviera Nayarit and the Riviera Maya as well as in the Dominican Republic, Jamaica, Spain and Brazil, recently expanded its menu service to cater to individuals with food allergies.  The program starts in the kitchen, where chefs and the food prep staff have been professionally trained in the preparation of dishes for gluten-free and Type 2 diabetes diets and seven other common allergy/special diets: nuts; fruits and vegetables; seafood; egg; dairy and lactose; fish; and monosodium glutamate.  Guests identify their food allergy at check-in and are given a color-coded bilingual card to show to waiters.  Also, selections from the buffet and a la carte menus are labeled with color codes that match the bilingual card.
