My favorite restaurants tend to be locally-owned, but sometimes I
like chain restaurants as well. I've found that some restaurants are good about offering
allergen information. Some you have to ask for it…sometimes the serving team is
prepared; other times, the servers don’t seem to have any idea what’s going on.
My best experience so far at a chain restaurant has been P.F. Chang’s. I went last week with family and first of all, the gluten-free
dishes are all listed in a special area of the menu, but not a separate menu,
so you don’t have to ask for anything special. However, I did let my server know when we were seated.
As soon as I told him I was
gluten-free, he told me what on the table I could eat and what I couldn’t. He
brought me GF sauces right away and at the end of the meal, he also pointed out
the GF dessert options without me having to mention it again. I was impressed with the attentiveness and would happily recommend P. F. Chang’s
as a gluten-free option.
I am curious if Pei Wei, the “faster” restaurant
option owned by the same company, does the same in their locations.Let me know if you have any input on this - I haven't tried the Pei Wei in our area yet.
