Think like a restaurant: This foodie teaches us to eat out safely with food allergies

Do you wish you could skip the awkwardness of going out to eat and talking about your food allergies but still have the confidence to eat safely?

Kayla King is a certified nutrition coach and past restaurant manager who gives us the right language to understand how the kitchen works…the difference between the line, flattop grill, front of house, back of house and even some nuanced words where restaurants hear something differently than what we mean to say. 

Kayla was diagnosed with celiac disease at 9 years old and always struggled with disordered eating and food anxiety growing up. She loves traveling and eating out and overtime started to challenge these beliefs by learning how to eat out safely. She now uses that knowledge to empower others to eat out through her app MyMeal. MyMeal helps people with food allergies find safe restaurants and menu items to eat. Her vision is transparent eating for all and she loves to educate others on how to use knowledge as power.

Listen to the role plays, how to finesse the awkward conversations, avoid the common mistakes and order like a pro - speaking the language of the kitchen and removing any confusion along the way between the customer and the restaurant staff.

This is an episode you’ll walk away and say, Wow I learned a lot of hacks and will be changing my approach from here on out. Enjoy.
