Excellent Meal And Service At Chevy's

Last Saturday, I went with my family to Chevy's in Princeton. I googled it before we went to see if they had a gluten-free menu and low and behold, they did! You can find it here >> Open Original Shared Link

Sometimes service at our Chevy's can be spotty and slow, and while I wouldn't call the service this time around speedy, it was very attentive to my gluten free needs. We asked the waitress for a gluten-free menu and she said Chevy's didn't have one, but she could bring the manager out to talk to me and she would oversee the meal. The waitress reappeared a few minutes later and said the manager was actually printing off the gluten-free menu and would come over to talk me through it, which she did.

My order--crispy chicken tacos--was highlighted on the order as being gluten free. The manager and the waitress double-checked it before it was brought to the table. And it was scrumptious! Better yet, it didn't make me sick.

I hope this wasn't a fluke. I was a little surprised by how great everything was, but I will certainly be making a return visit.

I envy you. I went to the Chevy's on Times Square and violently ill. :( Hopefully mine was the exception to the rule.

I guess you got lucky. The Chevy's here was just nasty. It's closed now. I've eaten at two other ones in CA and never once got anything that tasted good.

HaHa :blink: I looked at the Chevy's gluten free menu and there was zero,nothing, nada I could eat :blink: I have the same trouble at PF Changs, Pei Wei, and on and on ad nauseum. However, I did order a lovely lunch out the other day of roast pumpkin and goat cheese risotto :) No ethnic restaurants for this gal. :P

Well, well....this is an improvement! Chevy's is the only restaurant that has ever invited me "to eat elsewhere." Yes, they suggested that I leave because they felt they couldn't accommodate my gluten-free diet. I actually cried....I felt so devalued. I've never set foot in another Chevy's since then.

However, I'll check out the menu and see what's what. Thanks for posting this information. It's good to see that inroads are being made with this very intolerant restaurant chain.

Some Chevys seem to be owned by different people. I have heard there are some in Missouri that have a gluten-free menu but it wasn' t companywide.

The above link is for the ones in Missouri. They have a separate owner or franchisee. You can't expect every Chevy's to honor that if it's not a corporate wide policy. Some may choose for legal, cost or other reasons not to honor the Missouri menu.

      Sciatica came to mind for me as well. You might want to get some imaging done on your C-spine.

      Maybe this is sciatica? When mine acts up a little, I switch my wallet from one back pocket to the other. this isn't a substitute for more serious medical help, but for me it's a bandaid.

      OK so I just learned something completely new about this for the first time in years, that is REALLY WEIRD. One of my nerves that likes to "burn" or whatever is doing it every time I bow my head! I mean it is completely repeatable. Literally every time. Once my head goes beyond a certain angle *boom*. Nerve goes mental (lower right leg pain). What the hell. I've never seen a direct trigger such as this before that I can recall. The pain was the usual type I get from this problem - I suspect somehow the head movement was interrupting descending inhibition processes, causing the pain to leak through somehow.

      I've only made this a couple of times but it's really easy and I love the flavor. If you can, use all of the ingredients to get the full palette of flavors. I use fresh or canned tomatoes and I don't worry about peeling them. If you don't have harissa, there are replacement recipes online. If you don't have the greens, I suggest adding a little chopped baby spinach or celery leaves to add a dash of green color to this red dish. Best eaten in first couple days because flavor tends to fade. Leftovers are still good, but not as vibrant. Ingredients 2 medium eggplants, partially peeled and cut into cubes (original recipe says 1 in, but I prefer 1/2 to 3/4 in) 2 tomatoes, peeled and crushed 4 garlic cloves, finely chopped or minced 1 tablespoon fresh flat-leaf parsley, chopped 1 tablespoon fresh cilantro, chopped ¼ cup extra virgin olive oil 2 tablespoons spicy harissa (I use Mina brand) 1 teaspoon cumin 1 teaspoon paprika ½ teaspoon black pepper 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar or lemon juice 1 tablespoon tomato paste (optional) Salt to taste Preparation     • Heat olive oil in skillet or pot over medium heat. Add all ingredients and cook for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally. Cover and cook on low heat for an additional 20 minutes, stirring occasionally.       • Serve warm or cold as a side or with bread for dipping. Enjoy!

      I checked consumer labs that I'm a member of they independently check products for safely and claims the wolfs was rated great and bobs redmill buckwheat cereal. Ultra low gotten no dangerous levels of arsenic heavy metals, mold, yeast etc. plus they mention to refrigerate. I wonder if the raw buckwheat they rinse bc it's not toasted like kasha. Toasted removes the grassy taste I have to try the one you mentioned. I also bought Qia which is a quinoa mixed got great reviews.
