Hello! I recently went to a restaurant with some allergy cards I created myself. These included some details on my multiple allergens and safe alternatives.

Just curious what information is helpful from a restaurant’s perspective and how to best make sure this information is communicated to the kitchen staff. Do you ensure everyone touching the food knows about the allergy concerns and if so, how?

On the flip side, are there times where allergy card information isn’t helpful? What pieces get filtered out when passing the allergy concern along?

Hello! I recently went to a restaurant with some allergy cards I created myself. These included some details on my multiple allergens and safe alternatives.

Feels like this works well, but I’m still anxious about this information getting all the way to the chef/manager when I’m not able to talk to them directly. Does anyone have tips/experiences that have helped with this communication?

Or have there been experiences where allergy cards didn’t work? What happened?
