Matt over at StudiosCentral.com has the first look at some new technology that Disney’s Hollywood Studios Brown Derby restaurant is experimenting with. If you have a food allergy, you’ll now be presented with a cleverly disguised iPad contain an interactive menu that lets you select your allergy or food preferences and watch as the menu updates to reflect your options based on those changes.
A great app from Disney, too bad it doesn’t lower the prices any. It’s been a long time since I could afford to eat there.
That is a really cool concept. I know some dishes can be converted to meet a dietary requirement such as gluten free by a simple modification like omitting a sauce (or crouton on a salad) or substituting corn tortillas for flour tortillas.
I wonder if you can place your order directly through the app so it goes in as a dietary restriction order with any modifications to the dish correctly noted.
I can’t eat mushrooms (not an allergy, but an intolerance). Most times, I can figure it out from the menu myself, but some menus are heavier on mushrooms and I will list no mushrooms on my ADR and have had the chef come talk to me. I hope this app doesn’t replace the personal touch. But, it would make it easier not to have to remember everything you are told.
