Red Robin

Yesterday was Maddie's birthday and she really wanted to eat at Red Robin. For being fairly shy, she loves going to restaurants where they sing happy birthday to you. Plus, someone at school told her they give REALLY big sundae's for birthdays. So that's where we went.

I got online to see if they had a GF menu. I read a few things and decided I would be ok, as long as I REALLY stressed to the waiter how important it was that everything was GF.

So I asked for a GF menu from the hostess as she took us to our seats. Then when the waiter came to ask for our drinks, I asked again for the menu since I still hadn't gotten it. Someone comes over with a 4 page stapled together print off from the computer. I was a little worried at first. But it actually worked out ok.

I ordered a cheeseburger, without bun, lettuce and tomato. They brought mayo and a weird sauce, but I just took them off my plate. I asked the waiter if he was SURE they fry their fries in a separate fryer. He was very confident that they don't get cross-contaminated. But I couldn't have the spice they sprinkle on their fries- I had read that online. So they made my fries separate.

It was really good and our waiter was very understanding. I didn't have any problems last night or this morning, so I am putting them on my "safe list"!
