We're back from our 1st trip to California and ready to review some food!
We’ll cover it all: The delicious, the awful, and everything in between. We review food from both an allergy and a non allergy perspective since Josh is gluten free and I'm not.
If you want to follow along on my TR it's here:

My name is Raeven, and here's a picture of me hanging out with my bff Dale at Storyteller's Cafe. I'm 26 years old, and I'm the planner, photographer, and DTR writer for our trips.
Favorite WDW Restaurants: Boma, Homecomin', Shula's
Favorite Universal Orlando Restaurants: Bice, Toothsome, Mythos
Favorite Disneyland Restaurants: Storyteller's Cafe, Carnation Cafe, Steakhouse 55
My food likes include desserts, breakfast foods, burgers, Italian food, tex mex, steak, and all kinds of french fry dishes (especially poutine). I’m not a fan of BBQ, and I don’t eat seafood. This trip my goal was to try the best of Disneyland dining and several places in San Diego that looked interesting.
My trip partner is my boyfriend, Josh. He’s 33, and is gluten free due to an allergy. His food likes include steak, BBQ, burgers, and whatever interesting GF choices he can find. He's not picky at all, but he's is not crazy about dessert (which I think is crazy) or veggies on burgers.
Favorite WDW Restaurants: Yak and Yeti, Shula's, Sanaa
Favorite Universal Orlando Restaurants: Bice, The Palm, Toothsome
Favorite Disneyland Restaurants: Storyteller's Cafe & Carnation Cafe
I know this board is traditionally for WDW food reviews, but I've seen a few DL reviews here too so I hope it's okay to post these here. Our last 2 trips haven't been entirely WDW based, but when I asked after our last trip many people said they still wanted to hear dining reviews from our other trips too; so I wanted to do one for our California trip.
This trip we dined around San Diego for a few days, but after that dined almost exclusively at Disneyland; and all these places were entirely new to us! At the end I also plan to do a comparison between WDW and DL dining and maybe Anaheim/Orlando dining too.
As usual some food plans changed between the PTR and the trip, especially because a flight issue cut about a day off our trip (tune into the TR for that story). This DTR will have a food festival, gluten free food, character meals, giant food, highly recommended Disneyland snacks, a west coast continuation of our search for the best burger, and more .
