Dining Safely in Italy: Medical Grade Food Allergy Translation Cards
In Italy, 'passion' in the kitchen can sometimes lead to a lack of precision regarding ingredients. If you have a severe allergy to gluten, nuts, or shellfish, a simple verbal 'no' isn't enough.
Simply select your food allergy, and this tool will generate a clear Italian translation for restaurant staff. You can also save the translation as an image on your phone for easy access.
