We did have 1 bad experience with olive oil incompatibility (my wife)

Everyone worked with us (especially Carabba's). We would always go to a new place (to us) for our anniversary. So we went to a seafood sister restaurant to Ruth's Chris, at least same owner and location. When told she couldn't eat olive oil, the waiter got the chef. Chef came out and said that basically sucked for her. The could cook some flounder in butter, but that was it!

We ate, we left, we never went back, they closed 1-2 years later. Literally, every other place we ate went out of their way to accommodate her OO intolerance.

Because none of those special groups of food are exclusive to their diet. -- 48zip 06/30/2020 12:10PM

I agree. My point is that 50 percent of the menu -- GreenvilleVT 06/30/2020 2:19PM

Not sure if "satisfy" is the best word. ** -- HWA 06/30/2020 3:45PM

I think this is exactly right -- bulab 06/30/2020 12:17PM

I wish keto would get that way. Virtually all frozen dinners have carbs -- 48zip 06/30/2020 12:20PM

Even if the % of vegetarians in first class is higher... -- bulab 06/30/2020 11:55AM

Still, 100% of meals are edible by 100% of passengers. No one is left out. ** -- 48zip 06/30/2020 12:12PM
