Hi everyone! I'm going to P.F. Chang's for the first time this weekend, and I decided to go online to look at the menu ahead of time to be prepared. Anyway, they had a specialty menu for Recommendations for Gluten Intolerant Diets, which I thought was really cool! Just wanted to share for our gluten intolerant folks. Also, that to me shows I'm sure they'd be very accomadting and helpful to adjust menus for IBS (which I don't think should be very hard seeing as it's Chinese). BTW - if anyone's ever been there already and has any recommendations for dishes, I'd love to hear them!

I don't have any suggestions. What I got was not the best choice- chicken moo shu, but I was quite disappointed by PF Chang's! Even their rice was under par. If you have a Big Bowl go there instead. Sorry to be a party pooper!

"You absolutely must eat insoluble fiber foods, and as much as safely possible, but within the IBS dietary guidelines. Treat insoluble fiber foods with suitable caution, and you'll be able to enjoy a wide variety of them, in very healthy quantities, without problem." Please eat IF foods!

Not a party pooper at all! Thanks for the Big Bowl recomendation. I looked them up online, but unfortunately they aren't located in NJ or anywhere near here. I'll keep it in mind for future reference though!

Hopefully this PF Chang's will be better. I've had at least 3 people tell me how great it is, so I've been dying to try it. Wish me luck!

hey mags, I haven't been there, but guys I work with have. The one guy that is really into going to Chinese/Japanese places said it was alittle too mainstream for his liking. He really liked the japanese beer, maybe if BF is going you can get him to try it! I think it is a Benni Hana's-ish place? I also heard it gets SOOOO crowded, that even with reservations you have to wait awhile. It sounds like a fun experience, though, even if the food is not THE best.
Have fun!

Thanks for the review! Yes, BF will be there, so I'm sure he'll try the beer. He's taking me for my birthday. (It's where I wanted to go last year but I was taken to Quizno's instead - big difference, eh? ) I went to Bennihanna's once & I loved it, so that's a good sign! LOL I'll let you know how it goes in case you want to try it sometime.

and they have a menu which lists food items for allergy people including DAIRY products... their BBQ chicken is actually really good and safe and so is their fish if you ask for it to be cooked wihtout butter.. and a plain potato.

Maybe I'll have a taste of someone else's calamari another time. This is the only part of my plans I know about so I don't want to ruin the rest of the night. Apparently, I'm not going to be home until Sunday. So, the lomein is IBS safe though?

is this the same boyfriend as last year? Nope, new BF. He's the best! I love him to death! But, I could go on and on about that...heehee happy early bday Thanks!
