Guest guest Posted March 2, 2006 Report Share Posted March 2, 2006 My only complaint with those cards is that they are extremely hard to read. The font is very fuzzy when you print it out, and while some of the Chinese is legible, most of the characters are practically unrecognizable. The Japanese cards are the same way, and only the high resolution version is remotely legible. I've studied both languages and while maybe it would be easier for a native to the language to squint their way through them, I still doubt that most people would be able to read them. They are probably ok for other languages, but they don't seem to handle the Chinese/ Japanese characters well. > > You can start by using on of the free Thai language restaurant > > cards on Celiac Travel. > > > > http://www.celiactravel.com/restaurant-cards.html > > > > -patrick > > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 3, 2006 Report Share Posted March 3, 2006 Ohhhhhhhhhhhhh.... Maybe I'll bring them over to the local little restaurant when they very first open, before any crowds come in. And ask their advice............. I know I'm a tricky case as far as the world of diners go. I'm not too too picky about food, but can't have even a crumb, as you all know. Thank you for the comments.

Guest guest Posted March 3, 2006 Report Share Posted March 3, 2006 The book " The Gluten Free Bible " also has international cards in it. These are very legible. You can cut them out and laminate them. > > > > You can start by using on of the free Thai language restaurant > > > cards on Celiac Travel. > > > > > > http://www.celiactravel.com/restaurant-cards.html > > > > > > -patrick > > > > > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 3, 2006 Report Share Posted March 3, 2006 Forgive me if this has already been mentioned, but I definitely recommend the dining cards from Triumph Dining. They have a serious of six little cards that fit in your wallet. They are very specific to the type of food (e.g. Thai, American, Mexican...) and have English on one side and the native language on the other. I've been very pleased with them. They only cost $10. I think the Web site is www.triumphdining.com.
