How to eat at the restaurant when one is suffering from gluten intolerance?

When gluten intolerance we suffer, dining out with friends or family can really become a real headache. Indeed, eating out in establishments where no one really knows what foods are prepared can be challenging for people with celiac disease or gluten intolerance. For your convenience during your next dining out, here are some simple little tips and a list of gluten-free restaurants in Quebec.



1 Before you arrive, you lose nothing to call the restaurant to ask if chefs can accommodate you and you serve gluten-free meals, prepared pans and different from those used for regular food utensils.

2 When you arrive, tell your server your intolerance and ask them to offer you choices to fit your requirement, under the thoughtful recommendations of the chief.

3 Pay close attention to the dishes with sauces. These are often prepared with flour, marinade consisting of soy sauce containing gluten.

4 And do not hesitate to ask questions, lots of questions if necessary to make sure that the dishes are no wheat, no flour, no bread crumbs, no rye, oats or barley-free, for example
