[quote=Anonymous]I think politely letting the host know only applies to an in-home setting, where the host is cooking or ordering in a sit down meal. I know people here would still say - it's your problem, don't bother the host. But IMO in that setting it IS better to say something upfront bc it is freaking embarrassing to be somewhere and be sitting there with a piece of bread, while everyone else is chowing down on salad with bacon, sides cooked in bacon, and a steak. Even if you don't mind, it embarrasses the host who has spent hours cooking something you can't eat and now either feels bad or feels that you're being an annoying attention seeker. In your case though - with any restaurant or country club, no need to say anything in advance bc they WILL be able to accommodate you on the spot given that they have a full kitchen staff. Most caterers have veggie options ready to go, but even if this one doesn't -- they just bring out vegetarian sides on a fresh plate.[/quote]
