<<Disclaimer: Verify this information before applying it to your situation.>> Tanya! Welcome to the crowd as this same thing has happened to me both in Lincoln,Nebraska and Miami,Florida at Denny's(sp) Restaurants so I never go back to them NEVER! I got the same run around from the managers about it's against health codes yet I travel three to four days a week on the road and take my own food into all kinds of food establishments and never get that sort of treatment!We must accept some misinformed people and let it go as those managers are only doing what corporate hdqts tell them to do. Being Irish myself, I would probably call Houlihan's Corporate hdqts and ask for the head man and attempt to educate him! Grin and Go On is the best rule as you become a victim if you don't!
