| Papa Razzi 155 Worcester Road Framingham, MA 01702 508-848-2300 4/10/10 Our son with food allergies to milk, egg, peanut and tree nuts was not with us. This review shared by Ann. The first thing I noticed upon reading the menu was the statement offering gluten free pasta. After dinner, I spoke with John, the Regional Manager, regarding food allergies. He told me he has some personal experience with family members that have food allergies and he knows how scary it can be to watch someone have an allergic reaction. He said that he and everyone at Papa Razzi take food allergies very seriously. Wait persons are to notify the manager on duty as soon as a patron mentions that they have food allergies. The manager will then be responsible to monitor the meal preparation in the kitchen and personally deliver it to the food allergic patron. John mentioned that cross-contamination is the greatest risk for a patron with food allergies in any restaurant and that is why it is his job to make sure the meal is safely prepared in the kitchen. All utensils and pans are to be clean before meal prep begins. There pasta does not contain eggs and they will use a clean pot of water to prepare it. John said word has spread that they do a great job preparing safe meals for individuals with food allergies so they now see an average of two dozen diners with food allergies per day!!! He said all member restaurants of the Back Bay Restaurant Group are required to follow the same food allergy preparation standards. |
