[QUOTE="Angelmum21, post: 1097051, member: 120232"] It's going to take time for the world to catch up with us low carbers , I know, but imagine my frustration when I was helping a friend who was recently bereaved and it became apparent she needed sustenance. I let her choose the venue naturally as I wanted her to feel both at ease and tempted by the food. We ended up at a high end snack and coffee place which had an entire menu devoted to the specialty tea flavours they offered but the food menu was packed with carbs in the form of bread or wraps with the exception of the most expensive thing by far which was a healthy salad! I was feeling a bit flakey after a tortuous visit to the bank to try to sort out her accounts but decided that, as she insisted on paying, the only thing I should have was a coffee with cream. I keep encouraging another friend, who has cancer and has turned to the diet to try to improve her health, that there should always be at least one thing she can have when she goes out - I now fear she will end up bankrupt! Do any of you know of nice places that offer a bit of variety for us low-carbers ? We live in the sticks by the way but the local town has several of the normal chains of restaurants in it. [/QUOTE]
