Swiss Chalet. Hot damn it's delicious.

I'm not sure if it's their Chirstmas ads on TV or what the case is, I have been craving Swiss Chalet lately. I personally think they are a great gluten-free friendly option. Before going, check out their online allergy guide: http://www.swisschalet.ca/allergy.php They check off all the food that has wheat/gluten sources (as well as a lot of other common and uncommon allergeis).

The great thing about SC is that the dipping sause is GF. Really, it's kind of rare that the "special sause" at any restaurant falls on the GF side, so this makes me pretty damn excited. Plus it's delicious.

The one thing I find kind of random is that their fries are not GF (according to their website). And believe you me, I'm pretty strict when it comes to living GF... however, somewhere along the way I found out that the actual fries are GF but because there is cross contamination in their fryers, the list them as not being GF. I honestly can't say how I know this, and I obviously cautious you against eating their fries........ but I'm not going to lie: I've started eating them every time. And being very sensitive to gluten, I've (knock on wood) never had a reaction. I'm not by any means saying this is something you should do, or is it at all healthy to do.... but it's the one and only thing where I risk it.

Anyways, it's a lovely option. And it's very well priced. Mmmm - this post is making me crave some Swiss Chalet!



Please remember, this is my opinion only. Please make sure to check the allergy guide yourself AND take caution when eating out. And please don't eat the fries and say that I said it's okay, because it's not and I don't recommend it. I'm just telling you how it is for me. And as usual, I am not affiliated with Swiss Chalet at all - I just can't get enough of them!
