Re: CD choice? Ashland, OR?

[Guest guest]

I was wryly amused when the waiter at a good, well-run restaurant asked me if I needed GF meals "because of a medical necessity or a life-stylechoce." He was very polite and well-meaning. Perhaps the staff observes different levels of attention to cross, determining on the answers to that question.

Incidentally, have any of you found a good place to eat in Ashland, OR? We go there each year for the Shakespeare Festival. We've found some solutions, but perhaps you know of something else.

Yay! YOU GO, GIRL! I am 100% behind you, 100% in agreement, and I 100% believe in your RIGHT to say it. There IS a big difference between a choice and a medical necessity.

Re: Ashland, ORI've eaten at Greenleaf Restaurant (49 North Main Street) in Ashland a couple of times. They told me there is a waitress there with celiac and they seemed to know the drill.

Googling I ran across a bar that has GF pizza, but have not eaten there since we are usually just passing through with the kids. There is also a pasta place I found on google that has GF pasta, but when I called they did not seem educated on using separate water, etc., but maybe that was just the guy who answered the phone who was clueless.
