Best restaurant in South Yorkshire.
Posted by Sue on 18/7/2004GF board
Hi All,
just wanted to write and tell you about the best restaurant in South Yorkshire for Coeliacs. It's called Froggies and can be found at 186 London Road, Sheffield. I went there recently with some colleagues from work and thought I'd have the usual problems where I wouldn't be sure what I could eat. My friend rang the restaurant beforehand to check out the menu and they very kindly starred what I could eat. I made my choice, but as always happens, couldn't find anything for dessert. Another call to the restaurant resulted in the chef offering to buy some gluten free flour and make me my own individual chocolate pudding (the same that was on the menu, but adapted for me!!) Pleased as punch, I turned up on the night. I was amazed as the owner had been out and bought gluten free pasta so that I could change my choice of starters to one that I had yearned for ( a wonderful pasta, beetroot, rocket and feta cheese dish) Then he brought out my very own gluten free bread rolls, made for me fresh. Half way through the meal, the chef asked me to sample a herb cob that he had made and tell him what I thought. He had plans to put this on the menu if I liked it. To top it all, my pudding came and tasted devine!!!I can't rate this restaurant enough and will definitely be going back. All they need is a couple of days grace in order to prepare for your visit. It was great to go out and not feel different to everyone else. The chef is very knowledgeable about coeliacs and has done his homework (thanks to a carpet fitter!! I'll let you ask the owner about that one!!)Give it a go
