[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is really sad and scary.

My child has gluten allergy. We went to Cheesecake Factory once and ordered the GF pasta, verified twice with the waitress that it was GF. After taking two bites, DC started to have reaction and vomited on the way to the bathroom. Thankfully he was okay after that. But the restaurant denied that there's any possibility of cross contamination, which was infuriating because the reaction was right there, on their premise! I've since read many similar stories about Cheesecake Factory--they don't take food allergies very seriously.[/quote]

They have a HUGE menu. I think it's more difficult for places who serve so much in such volumes to keep track. I am surprised more places don't say they can't accommodate allergies because it is such a huge responsibility.[/quote]

They have a limited children's menu and on that menu they specifically indicated GF pasta. When a restaurant put something as free of an allergen in print on their menu, people tend to trust that over other choices.

someone messed up and plated one of the regular pastas. [/quote]

Or, as I have often experienced as a GF diner, they will boil it in the same pot as the regular pasta or with the same water. I have celiac disease and not an allergy, so thankfully the GI explosives take longer than two bites to start.[/quote]
