Help! Gf Fries At Any Restaurant (not Fast Food)?

[Guest Annie74]

Hi all! I need some help for Sunday night. My inlaws insist on taking us out to dinner on Sunday even though our 4 year old with celiac disease is super picky and I cannot find a restaurant that will work. All I need to know is a place that has gluten-free fries and we will be set! A place like a Fridays, Ruby Tuesdays, etc.

Can anyone help me?? Please!!

Outback fries actually are gluten-free and at many Outbacks they are cooked in dedicated fryers. They are not listed as gluten-free because this isn't true at all and because in some the fryers are too close to each other. You'd have to check with your local Outback.

Pack him his own food if you MUST go. Thats the simplest method. But I have had good luck wth Sante Fe Stake house, and Alabama Grill... but I dont order fries from any one anymore cept ones I make my self.

I will call our Outback, thanks Richard!

I could pack him his own food but really want him to feel "normal" and have something he can order like the rest of us, you know? If there are gluten-free fries out there he would love to eat them!

I am surprised that there are not more places that use separate fryers.

Thanks Richard, i didn't know that outback fries are often gluten-free, ill call the local outback..annie..most restaurants don't use separate fryers..but could your son get mashed potatoes instead of fries? they are often gluten-free but you still have to ask..mcds fries are cookied in separate fryers but i'm sure you don't want to go there for dinner..

He won't eat mashed potatoes. Or most other food that we could order him that's gluten-free. He's a real pain about trying stuff and we have sllllooooooooowlyy made progress with his diet at home but eating out is another story, he just wants fries or big corn chips. Sigh. Since he eats decent at home I dont mind buying him crap like that for dinner when we occasionally go out, you know?
