Do You Dennys Anyone?

[abigail]

hi, Ive just realize that dennys restaurants are a good choice to go with my son. the hostess told us that they dont make the pankes in the same grill as the eggs or bacon.

so ive got a copy of their allergens info from internet, but I want to ask you 2 questions:

-can my baby eat Hydrolyzed protein or it contains gluten?

- I want to know about your experiences there and wath did you ask?

thx for sharing this info!!

I ate there not too long ago. I had chocolate milk, eggs, sausage links, bacon and hashbrowns. I got sick before I got home. I have a "restaurant guide" that I used and it had all those things listed except the bacon. I just thought the bacon would be okay too. That may have been where I made my mistake.

I considered eating at Denny's a big mistake before I was Dx'd, I would consider it a bigger one now. Food poisoning is for everyone.

I have eaten there also. I've had a hamburger patty with fruit, or a baked potato, and the veggie omelet. I never got sick, but I also gave specific instruction to my server and the manager. With places like denny's I believe it is a serious risk, even if you do talk to the staff. I think I just gambled and got lucky.

eating out anywhere, especially a place like Denny's, is a risk due to cross-contamination. It often depends on the specific staff. I do not eat at Denny's.

I have to travel for work quite frequently and often eat at Denny's. I have never had a problem and have found the staff to always be very accomodating to my requests. I order food that is naturally gluten free and very carefully explain what I need. So far so good with Denny's

I haven't eaten at dennys since dx, however I have been at a couple of breakfast places (small town type) and so long as you are specific with things, they're okay. I know big food chains like Ihop add pancake batter to their scrambled eggs, so don't order that!! I usually just make sure everything can be made w/ fresh ingredients, and on a clean grill. Mostly, I like to make breakfasts at home. I love canned potatoes fried w/ butter for hash browns, and Van's waffles or Pamela's pancake mix!

YES YES YES YES YES

Isn't it nice to hear a yes?

I have NEVER gotten a reaction from Denny's. I just ate there Sunday. I eat the Ultimate Breakfast Bowl.

It has potatoes on the bottom and eggs, cheese, ham, etc. on the top and bacon on the side.

The pancakes come on a separate plate and I gave them to someone else.

I explain that no pancakes or bread or anything can touch my food and that's it. VOILA!

YES YES YES YES YES

I love the breaskfast bowl!!! I only eat the ham bowl when I go to Denny's. I have never gotten sick. I do not eat at Denny's on a regular basis though, sometimes I do not feel the place is always that clean.

We do eat at Denny's. It's one of the few places that both my husband and cousin (both have celiac dis) like to go for breakfast. They order the meat-lovers breakfast, minus the toast. I can think of three separate Denny's we've gone to, ordering for them. So far (about 5 years for my cousin) so good.

Take care!
