Triumph Dining Cards?

Hi! I think Triumph is the correct name. Can anyone give me info on these??? Thanks!

you can buy them on amazon .com - just type in Triumph dining in the search and they will come up. I haven't bought mine yet (waiting to order with a few other things), but I've heard they are wonderful.

Love, love, love my Triumph Dining Cards!!! It really does help the restaurant staff to understand our situation and it is so much easier to have them read the card and say a few words about it then it is to try to explain it all without the cards. I ordered my cards and the dining guide right from their website and got it pretty quickly.

Good luck!

Thanks! I'm assuming they are specific to anyone with Celiac or Gluten problems, not just for adults. I wanted to order them for when we're out with my 3 year-old.

Yep, I have them too, and they're quite useful. I find, more than anything else, they help break the "I'm a busy server and don't want to listen to everything you have to say" or the "I can't remember everything you just said" barriers. It's a fabulous convenience device, and one that I'd prefer not to do without ever again! ;-)

I love them because it gives the server and chef something to look at, and it saves me time because I don't have to go as in-depth with my verbal explanation.

I just had a great Triumph experience last night. I was at a sushi restaurant which is famous for its appetizers and crazy sashimi concotions. I showed up with my triumph cards and my packets of gluten-free soy sauce.

The server took the card back to the chef, and they volunteered to make one of thier appetizers in a clean pan with my soy sauce. It was amazing, and so dellicious. I never leave home without them.

Love them, but I would recommend you make copies of them to give to waiters. We had a dingbat waiter who misplaced the card for some time before finally finding it. Karen

Thanks for the info on the Tirumph Dining Cards. I just got them in the mail yesterday. The rest. guide is awesome! We're in NJ on the PA border, so there's quite a few rest. that offer gluten-free menus that aren't that far from our house. This will certianly make going out with our little guy easier. I was thrilled to see that Charlie Brown's has gluten-free ice-cream! The only thing that's gonna be tough is the french fry thing. No one lists them as gluten-free b/c of non-dedicated friers...such is life! However, we have a Wendy's down the road from us! What a tremendous help this guide will be. Thanks again!

PS- I found a rest. down in the Outer Banks, from the rest guide, that isn't gluten-free, but will make (or at least attempt! ) a gluten-free meal for him; we're going there at the end of June. There's also a vegetarian take-out rest. on the Outer Banks that does tons of gluten-free stuff without risk of cc that I found via the internet. I spoke to the owner a couple of days ago; he was very helpful and completely understood Zachary's dietary needs.

I am going to get those cards. Where are the places in the outer banks? I go down there to visit. The Outback there gave me croutons on my salad.. Thanks, LLee
