Seriously.
This is just a SLICE of the type of shit we have to deal with.
I told the FOH manager…”Ya know, some other restaurants go to a ‘limited menu’ for ‘concert weekends.’ She ‘oooohed’ and scratched her chin. 🤔😏
I drove an hour away to get gf burger buns, Italian garlic bread and waffles. They didn't have the waffles, so I ordered them for next week and will do it all over again.
Let's put a positive spin on this:
They trust that it is good. Because I can tell you, I would rather drive an hour for good food I can eat than bad food that is near by.

on a hot day too!
The main reasons I dont go out to eat except on special occassions:
a) I have too many food allergies that would require so many mods its not fair to staff.
b) I have wound up in hospital ER's in Anaphylactic shock from servers/staff who forgot that the X ingredient, which I asked about, was actually in the dish I ordered.
So I save everyone the stress & time and eat at home except for specific restaurants I know and have been to for years.

Very thoughtful.
I forgot a rare one (oof) that I'd never encountered before; this happened Friday during dinner rush -- bartender comes back and relays a message vis a vis a burger called "the Squealer" (half MA ground beef, half house-cured bacon) "Please cook it VERY well-done cuz guy has an allergy. There can be no pink." 🤔 🤷♂️
I told her dude should eat something else but proceeded to hockey puck the damn thing.
AFAIK dude turned out okay.
🤷♂️ 😎

That's insane. its not the server's or cook's responsibility. I would just order something else from the jump.
Ummmm hmmm.
👍
Numerous jokes and references were made -- esp. to the Simpson fugu episode, despite not being exactly analogous lol -- as you can imagine.
🤓
1. That burger sounds delicious
2. WTF. You don't order something you are allergic to and hope the chef can burn the allergens out of it!
This is why you hate us 🤬
Exactly; dude's sanity and smarts were questioned.
But hold up...
What are you talking about --
As your future potential agent I MOST CERTAINLY DO NOT hate you.
I mean, not yet at least...
😮 😆 ❤️
@Bliss @InUnfunky
EXACTLY.
This bakery doesn't use anything I am allergic to except eggs in 2 bakery items. It was amazing. And the stuff I was buying is for me to cook at home and not risk life and limb for a burger.
I found full sized burrito wraps that are GF so I am making a chicken burrito for dinner. I am so excited!!!
