Anyone in France, especially Paris?

Hi, we are travelling to Disneyland, Paris in a fortnight. We've heard the food there is pretty expensive so we're planning on travelling to a supermarket nearby. Does anyone know the best way to do this? Is there a train/bus near the hotels or park that goes to a supermarket type place?

Also my DS is 7mo and milk protein intolerant. We are taking his formula with us but as I won't be able to prepare lots of food in the hotel room or cart a ton of jars on holiday with us, could anyone tell me what to look for on baby food packets and jars and even normal food that means milk/dairy free or contains milk/dairy.

Obviously he'll be able to eat fruit and veg with us but it will be nice to get a few things for him for when we're out and about.

TIA

Hi!
Only just seen this post - hope it's not too late!
I'm sorry I can't help you with supermarkets but maybe I can with the milk thing. We live near Paris and my DD was milk intolerant until a couple of weeks ago. Most jars for 4/6 month olds (4/6 mois) are just veg or fruit purée and so won't have milk in, but be careful because many jars that are more interesting do have milk in. Look for "lait" or "lait écremé" or beurre (butter) or "fromage" (cheese). Obviously, there may be these words in different forms or names of cheese etc... Confused. If you find "sans lait" that means without milk.
There may be milk free brands but I never found them....

Good luck and have fun!

There is a HUUUGE supermarket in the shopping centre at Val d'Europe - one stop on the RER from the Disney station (and quite a lot of the hotels (non Disney) are there too. You might look in pharmacies too for food, but probably more expensive than supermarket.
