    We are vegetarian & planning to book the whispering canyon plant skillet.As we are not vegan is it possible to ask for the vegetables to be swapped with buttered veg offered in other skillets? Can we ask for the normal cornbread with butter?

    Welcome to planDisney, Shruti!

    Planning a visit to Walt Disney World with dietary restrictions? No problem!

    First, you are going to thoroughly enjoy your meal at Whispering Canyon Cafe. Located in Disney's Wilderness Lodge, you may find it hard to leave that impressive lobby entrance as you head to the restaurant. She's a beauty! However, you'll be glad that you did as the fun atmosphere and great food may just put this location at the top of your list for a return visit.

    We've found that Cast Members at WDW have always been so accommodating to any of our dietary needs. From vegetarian to multiple food allergies, this is the place to be for the very best dining experience. When you check in, be sure to let them know that you are vegetarian. As your server helps you navigate that outstanding Whispering Canyon menu, ask them if the vegetables you prefer from the other skillets are prepared in a vegetarian manner. (For example, if there is protein stock used in preparation, you may not wish to have that.) I know that some cornbread recipes call for lard, so also ask your server if that is the case on the day of your dining. Otherwise, I know the vegan cornbread is very popular here, so you might just find that you have a new favorite, too!

    Shruti, be sure to read through all of these helpful details on Plant-Based Cuisine Options at Walt Disney World Resort. In addition, always ask your server about options; if you have an idea that they can make happen, they'll be sure to do so.

    As you put together the perfectly pixie-dusted plans for your upcoming visit to The Most Magical Place on Earth, Shruti, be sure to send additional questions our way. We love to help!
