 “Let’s Eat Out! …is
a visa of sorts, giving diners with allergies access to a full
range of information
about
major restaurant
cuisines, ingredients and preparations. Building their book around
the 10 most common food allergies, authors Kim Koeller and Robert
La France instruct and anticipate, arming diners with a checklist
of menu considerations…Thorough and comprehensive, the book
might do well in the hands of operators as well. It gives an important
overview of the seriousness of allergies–and how common allergens
are in many foods, even those that don’t immediately seem
suspect.”
- Jamie Popp, Restaurants & Institutions Magazine,

from menus, but other allergens are also addressed. The book itemizes

 “Allergy
sufferers who are serious about eating out should probably invest
in this series of books by coeliac
allergy
sufferer, Kim Koeller and her partner Robert La France. The idea
of the book is to prepare prospective diners-out for everything
that is likely to come their way. The
main book, Let’s Eat
Out!, looks at common ingredients and preparation techniques,
and then at nine eating options – seven ethnic Thai, Mexican,
Italian, etc plus breakfast and snack meals – and what risks
these pose to the allergy sufferer. It provides prodigious quantities
of information, dozens of easy reference tables, guidelines and
contact details for traveling on any airline world-wide and essential
phrases in the main European languages. Smaller ‘passports’ also
provide a pocket size version for just one or two cuisines Chinese,
Indian, and Thai for example– and a really
useful multi- lingual French, German, Italian, and Spanish allergy phrase book.”

“Do you suffer from food allergies? Do
you travel often? Do you regularly eat fast food or in restaurants?
Do you speak English? Then these books published in the United
States may be helpful to you. They detail the traps found in cuisines
from different countries and give hints as to which plates may
contain the most common allergens… For identifying potentially
hazardous dishes, the information is very complete for those affected
by wheat allergies and Celiac
disease…The main book being rather heavy, the authors developed
small dedicated guides for different cuisines and translations
in Spanish, Italian, German and French.”

from French)
“A new book titled Let’s
Eat Out! …is now available to help folks who have allergy and
gluten problems…Both
of the authors have spent years preparing to author this book. Koeller
is herself … a
celiac. She had to learn how to handle that condition while constantly
traveling around the world and eating away from home… This is a very
carefully crafted book with loads of good information…. These tools
are very easy to use with color tabs on the chapter pages allowing the
reader to open the book quickly
to the desired topic. Laymen’s terms make the reading easy and there
is excellent indexing for the entire book.”
