Review of Bacchanal Buffet

So I’ve been to the bacchanal in years past and got glutened, decided to try again… So every where on the buffet is gf signs on gf things, but I decided to sort of play dumb and pretend not to know that and ask our server if there was an easy way to tell what’s gf and not. She was very accommodating and asked if it was okay if I waited a few min for a chef to come out and give me a tour. The chef came out and was extremely professional and nice to me. He did not know what gluten was. He kept asking me things like “can you eat butter?” And “can you have bread?” I answered genuinely, and we went through and he essentially just read me what the signs said but said that the signs are out of date… So I didn’t eat anything he said was gf that wasn’t printed, but I also didn’t eat anything that didn’t also say gf on the sign. So there’s what he said, what was on the signs - and I only ate what was both said and on signs. Some things that said gf he said he can’t be sure of because they are bought in, such as meatballs in the Italian wedding soup, and the meats and cheeses in the charcuterie area. Okay. TLDR; I got glutened like HARD CORE. Like I BARELY made it back to my room and am draining my entire bodies weight. Gross. Beware. It’s not safe. It’s $80 a person. And it’s not safe. It Pains Me to say this. Because it’s SO GOOD. I only ate seafood (crab legs), prime rib, ceviche, and shrimp. I also ate a tiny little gf chocolate cake dessert that was by itself in their own area. Everything marked GF still got sick.
