Olive Garden

[Cheri A]

My DH and son wanted to eat at Olive Garden yesterday. I would have never attempted to eat there, but DH called the manager and was comfortable enough to try it. Upon arriving, it was a bit unnerving because the hostess didn't know what a Gluten-Free menu was. But then DH said that we had called and talked to **** and would he please come out. From then on it went ok.

Carleigh had her own separate salad dish without tomatos, croutons and dressing. She had oil and vinegar. She also had a plain grilled chicken breast and plain steamed broccoli.

That's great. But why no tomatoes? Preference or is there something I should know?

Nothing to do with celiac, just her preference! (She'll eat them cooked in something, but not raw
