My teen ds has a new job at an Italian restaurant, kitchen portering. They've offered him some food. He'd love a pizza which they've offered. But he's coeliac. They have gluten free base and he says they shout "no flour " and assemble them on a plate BUT then cook on the shelf in the pizza oven where the floury pizza is also cooked so there's a risk of cross contamination.
Could someone translate for me please :
I'd love a pizza please but is it possible to cook it on a tray as I get ill with even a tiny amount of flour because of the coeliac disease
Hes too shy to ask and doesn't think they understand that it needs to be totally away from flour. He can't have the pasta as it's cooked in a big vat of water where the regular pasta is cooked. I didn't " get" all this before he was diagnosed but now we know, we are really careful. He's been so much better since going GF and the odd occasion where he's been glutened, he's been really sick for days after. He could of course say no thanks to food but he's hungry and I think it's a shame if they genuinely don't know how to govern coeliacs an option when they've clearly thought about it and got stuff on the menu on offer. Thanks for reading and if anyone can advise or help with the Italian, that's great. It's a very authentic place and DS says the English isn't fluent in the kitchen (though he seems to talk fluent football with them all and they're kind to him 😊). Thank you!
