⚠️ Risks & cross-contamination
- The establishment is not a dedicated gluten-free facility, so there is an inherent cross-contact risk common to many non-dedicated kitchens.
- Some sources describe separate preparation areas or kitchen practices to minimize gluten exposure, and staff are described as knowledgeable about gluten-free precautions. However, it’s prudent to verify current practices with the staff at the time of visit.
- Recent positive experiences and observations of staff familiarity with celiac needs help mitigate risk, but do not remove it entirely.
