Guest guest Posted September 11, 2008 Report Share Posted September 11, 2008 Congratulations on your birthday and that they gave you such a delicious option. I thought the note from the chef was special and it sure sounds like the chef enjoyed making it for you. I'd request it every time. Why not?

Guest guest Posted September 12, 2008 Report Share Posted September 12, 2008 I bet if you use that chef, from now on there will be something handcrafted for you How wonderful to have that support, and to know that the creator is aware of the variety of foods that you CAN eat, instead of wondering about all the things you can't eat. Happy b-day!

Guest guest Posted September 12, 2008 Report Share Posted September 12, 2008 Sorry, but I just have to ask...where in the world do you work that not only provides lunch during the inservice, but has a CHEF preparing it? Sounds very 'posh' to me! LOL Color me green w/ envy Happy Belated Birthday to you! Deann ._,___ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted September 13, 2008 Report Share Posted September 13, 2008 I work in a Mental Health Clinic. The lunch is offered by a drug company so they have an upscale restaurant cater it. I'm sure it is to catch the Doctor's attention....but we Nurses attend as well:) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted September 13, 2008 Report Share Posted September 13, 2008 That is very interesting. I have recently read many comments and controveries surrounding the pharmaceutical industry wining and dining medical staff, especially physicians. I am glad that the chef was responsive to a vegetarian' needs. Recently, I have discovered that the more upscale a restaurant is, the more responsive the staff is to vegetarian requests. Recently, I was out of town in a small, but very nice Italian restaurant in Brookings, Oregon. Although I have been a vegetarian of 30+ years, along with a diagnosis of lyme disease, I discovered that I have a gluten allergy. This restaurant was able to make me a wonderful vegetarian gluten free meal--I just read the menu and figured out what they would have on hand and asked for it--voila, it appeared.
