Talked to the chef/owner regarding food allergies. It's a nut free cupcake & cake bakery! They have lunches, salads and sandwiches. We go there all the time. |
| Zero8 Restaurant and Bar 1735 Saint-Denis Montreal, QC (514)658-5552 08/08/2009 This review shared by Mallergies. Patron allergic to Peanut. I talked to the wait person. We spent a wonderful evening with our friends who were curious about discovering this new dining experience, which was safe for me and very interesting for all of them. The menu is composed of fresh ingredients for all sophisticated palates and is concocted without fish and seafood, peanuts, nuts, sesame seeds, milk (lactose & casein), soya, eggs, wheat or any grain containing gluten (barley, oat, rye and triticale) and sulphites (food supplement). Also, the meat is prime quality and everything on the menu (cocktail, beer, wine, starters, main course, deserts, coffees, teas and take away) absolutely guarantees that there are no contacts with any of the most important allergens. Even their hand soap, in the washroom, is certified gluten free! The friendly and professional staff is aware of the severity of food allergies on their clientele. It was an amazing experience to taste my first Thai meal and discovered a restaurant which is saved for my life and pleasant to go to. It will be definitively a place to visit again soon and I will strongly recommend it to family with young children with food allergies. 12/9/09 This review shared by Katerine. I live in Montreal Canada and there might be a solution for someone who has a food allergy and still wants to eat at a restaurant. Zero8 is the first restaurant with a completely hypoallergenic menu designed without the top eight allergens that affect most Canadian allergy-sufferers (Fish and seafood, Peanuts, Nuts, Sesame seeds, Milk, Soybeans, Eggs, Wheat or any grain containing gluten). Surprisingly, it’s not boring, bland, granola hippie food and the decor at Zero8 is also really stylish. The owners are really concerned and take the food seriously. Plus, it’s really good!
