It turns out that guy who called himself a chef was actually not one; he was a part-time server at the restaurant in question.
Now, whether or not he was writing down the wrong order or not, we don’t actually know at the moment.
Channel 9 News in Colorado did a piece on it. Hell hath no fury like a celiac community scorned. Watch the piece. It’s interesting, and, at 0:37, you will see something that should look familiar to you. Yep, that’s from my blog (pretty cool, huh?).
If I was the chef at Florindo’s, the real one, that is, I would take this opportunity to really reach out to the gluten-free community. Everybody know his name now, might as well use it for good. 🙂
