Poll for Austin and Texas Hill Country Residents
Update: A box for the survey! Please send your results to janine.ray AT gmail.com (just turn that into a real address.)
Austinites -- your opinion on a Gluten Free restaurant or Gluten-Free friendly restaurant!Mention what part of town you live in, and put your results in your reply for LJ. I will forward to the person doing the survey, since they haven't set up a separate box for this. The people doing this have run a successful restaurant in another town, and one just had gastric bypass, so he's very open to getting the best meals with smaller portions and removing foods that are a problem. Several of us encouraged him to consider making the restaurant GF, or very GF friendly.
Why yes, some of my answers were brief, and some I wrote them a novel. Of course!
