We pay , deserved to be...

If you have celiac disease, please be super careful and ask again, even if it is uncomfortable.

I was first brought a dish for which, when I asked, the chef wasn't sure whether they had used soy sauce containing gluten. So they swapped the dish again. I tolerated the food well afterwards, but without sauce it was okay, but not super...
