<<Disclaimer: Verify this information before applying it to your situation.>> New Orleans can be a tough city for a celiac, so I am delighted at the experience I had there last night. Drago's is a well-known seafood place with restaurants in suburban Metairie and in the Hilton Hotel downtown on the Riverwalk, next to the casino and the aquarium. I went to the downtown one for the famous charbroiled oysters with olive oil, garlic and parmesan. I told the waitress I had celiac disease and much to my delight she came back with a list of the menu items that were gluten free and the selection was great. She told me she thought it was part of a general initiative by Hilton to be sure that their restaurants were more friendly to people with food allergies. I'm in New Orleans a lot and usually settle for bland chicken or broiled fish. I am glad that Drago's is now an option. * Send administrative questions to mailto:[log in to unmask] * Archives are at: Http://Listserv.icors.org/SCRIPTS/WA-ICORS.EXE?LIST=CELIAC
