Everything Jen said, and also seconding the suggestion to try quinoa. NOM. :) And polenta! And the San Remo gluten free pasta, is always in the ordinary pasta section instead of being with the other gluten-free pastas in the Weird Food Section.
The Earth Market in Subiaco (in the little shopping complex behind Nandos on Hay St) also stocks an interesting selection of alternative foods and has a cafe attached, but these days it's pretty easy to get gluten-free and dairy-free foods from IGA or even Coles/Woolies.
I'm not particularly up-to-date on what's dairy-free and good, but I'll keep an eye on labels from now on and let you know if I come across anything you might like.
(What's your soy tolerance like? Or sheep's milk/yoghurt tolerance? I have a banana bread recipe that tastes like Delicious Ordinary Food even though it's gluten-free, but I need to think of something to swap in for the sour cream to make it dairy-free.)
