I have eaten at most of these restaurants, but not all. If I eat

something at a restaurant and don't have any ill effects, I assume

it's gluten-free. I do react rather quickly if I accidently ingest

some gluten, so I think I'm a pretty good measuring stick. However,

just to be safe, please, always ask about the gluten status of your

food, because chefs, ingredients and recipes can change. I wish you

many happy meals out!
