Companies with a Conscience - Chili's Grill and Bar

Companies with a Conscience has been created  because I see companies that are striving to make their community a better place. I am tired of hearing news and seeing on Facebook about all the negative things organizations are doing, so I want to start focusing on the positive. One small positive thought in the morning can change your entire day. I want to highlight the positive and give notice for good actions.

This week's Company with a Conscience is Chili's Grill and Bar

When dealing with food allergies, many companies will compile a restrictive list of menu items that you cannot eat. Chili's has done the opposite. Chili's Grill and Bar has created a list of items that you can eat if you have a certain allergy. Check out the list! Due to cross-contamination, they obviously cannot assure complete safety when eating any item on their menu but to create an inclusive list of menu items it takes away the feeling of restriction due to your allergy. 

I give Chili's a lot of credit for the time it took to create an inclusive list, and for taking a step to removing the stigma associated with food allergies by being restrictive!

Congratulations Chili's for being a Company with a Conscience!

Companies with a Conscience - Opa Greek Restaruant

Hello!

As promised this is my second post for Companies with a Conscience!

This bi-weekly post is to encourage positivity online and highlight restaurants that are doing good for the community.

For the weeks of 11/1/2015-11/15/2015 I am highlighting Opa Greek Restaurant!

I have chosen to highlight them due to their knowledge and ability to cater to the allergic community. I recently placed an order and when I asked my normal questions about latex gloves, possible allergens and my safety, I was pleasantly surprised with the amount of knowledge the staff had. For the first time in a long time, while trying to receive answers pertaining to my allergies, I wasn't made to feel like I was burdening anyone.  I had an extensive conversation with them about my allergies and am so impressed with how allergy friendly they are. I would encourage everyone to visit Opa Greek Restaurant!
