i have had great luck with pf changs. i went there this weekend and the manager came out and said they double check everything about 3 times to me :)

but i do always walk away from a restuarant and go "was it really gluten-free?" i guess we have to go for it and trust. it would only take one person who doesn't care to mess up the order.

i would probably hardly ever eat out, but i feel an unspoken pressure from my husband, and feel like i don't want to be thought of as a "stick-in-the-mud" about yet another thing...

oops-hit the wrong button....

...but i will say i certainly don't enjoy eating out as i did before. in the back of my mind i dread it when it happens. but i do agree with the earlier post that we should try and go out and make ourselves visible, otherwise, the food industry would feel even less pressure to evolve to our needs :rolleyes:

I know this is going to make me unpopular, but you guys need to stop being so damn shy. Restaurant staff are paid to wait on you. They are paid to answer questions, and help you decide on a meal that won't make you sick.

Better more upscale places actually train their staff on various food allergies and which products to avoid.

If the staff refuses to help or seems somewhat less than knowledgeable then LEAVE!!
