 “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.”
