Title: Score one for the Spaghetti Factory!
Post by: KarenInWA on February 09, 2015, 10:15:12 PM
Score one for the Spaghetti Factory! I went there w/a friend for dinner tonight, ordered a raspberry vodka lemonade from the bar. Upon being led to my table, as I was walking up the ramp, a child sitting next to the ramp at her table turned her head towards me and coughed inches away from my drink. I explained to the waiter that I'm a transplant patient and didn't want to take any chances (also doesn't help that I'm dealing with increased levels of tacrolimus - currently on a low dose to bring it down). They comped me a new one, and even brought it in a clear plastic cup with a lid. I know how I'm going to order my drinks there from now on!

For those who may be wondering - the increased tacrolimus levels may have been caused by a GI drug called Dexilant. More details to follow as I find them out!

How fab that they listened to you. Asking nicely can go a long way. Definitely fill us in on the drug issue.
