Venice was a little more challenging for eating gluten free and dairy free, however, the owner of Mea Libera Tutti gave us a very helpful list of recommendations!
There are definitely more gluten free options than dairy free options here, and I found myself often trying to explain the difference between lactose free and dairy free. Many places swore their tiramisu was dairy free, and after a lot of questions realized it’s only lactose free. Thankfully I knew better and pushed for clarity but I’m still not convinced all of my meals were 100% dairy free here based on how my stomach was feeling. Sharing to be fully transparent on the challenges of traveling with dietary restrictions!
However, all of the food was absolutely incredible! We fell in love with Venice, even though we only had two nights there.
