angied_simplyme Posted June 20, 2019 Share Posted June 20, 2019 Tomorrow my team is going to La Roma, which is a greek restaruant. https://www.laromapizzatulsa.com/ I don't eat Greek or Mediterranean food very often. Can anyone make a suggestion of what might be "safe"? I was thinking a Shawram Platter with no bread and no Rice, but with Carrot Sticks. Or a few Cabbage Rolls and 1 serving of Baba Ghanoush with no bread but Carrot Sticks. Thank you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators SugarcubeOD Posted June 20, 2019 Moderators Share Posted June 20, 2019 You would need to contact the restaurant and ask them what they use to season with, what they put in anything you might be interested in eating - the cabbage rolls have cracked wheat in them according to the menu so those would be out.

Whole30 Certified Coach Keen On Clean Fuel Posted June 21, 2019 Whole30 Certified Coach Share Posted June 21, 2019 Agreed. I always recommend calling the restaurant before you go during an "off peak" hour such as between lunch and dinner rush to speak directly with the chef. You could then ask about all their marinades and also as what they recommend with your restrictions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
angied_simplyme Posted June 21, 2019 Author Share Posted June 21, 2019 Thank you. I think the Cracked Wheat is in the " Kibbi Seasoned ground beef mixed with cracked wheat, baked and served with Tzatziki sauce" Also, Hummus would be out correct because it is from ChickPeas which is a legume? Thanks again! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jihanna Posted June 21, 2019 Share Posted June 21, 2019 Any traditionally prepared hummus would be made from chickpeas/garbanzo beans, which would make it off-limits, right. It's definitely worth taking the time to look over the menu and select a few things which sound appetizing, and then calling to ask about the specifics for each thing (remember to ask about marinades on meat and dressing ingredients, in addition to the obvious questions of what's actually in the stuff). I'd expect them to rely heavily on olive oil, which would be good, but I've been unpleasantly surprised before by places that should have used olive by default and finding out they actually use canola oil instead, so again... never assume, always ask.
