I was just mentioning Big Bowl on another thread. I then went to the website and got so excited I had to tell everyone about it. www.bigbowl.com If you live in MN, WI, IL, TX, VA or NC you can go! They even have appetizers and desserts that are safe. Ginger soda and ginger mint hot tea too! I love it!

A word of caution on Big Bowl. There used to be one near my old appartment. Lots of their food is deep-fried. It is a good source of ginger though if you can find the right combinations. Beware of how thier cooking stuff and of lots of broccoli - it holds up well in deep frying so it's used in alot of thier meals. I was also really close freinds with one of thier head cooks at one point. They mix thier ginger for stir fries with garlic, so anyone who has problems with garlic won't do well with thier ginger.
To Minnie - I'm glad the restaraunt worked for you and it seems they have some foods that are safe for us, but I'm just warning against a blanket endorsement!

I LOOOOVE Big Bowl. Lots of protein in their food, not just rice.. Needless to say that I was EXTREMELY disappointed to find out 2 weeks ago, that they closed the one by our house... in Broomfield, CO. Luckily there's still the one in Denver!! Pfew!

Of course-I should have mentioned a caution. I get the make your own stir fry. But having anything fried or coconut milk or too much peanut butter would be bad. But it is the only restaurant with safe appetizers and desserts I know of and all that ginger in their beverages!
