Last Night at Blue Smoke

If the mark of a good BBQ dinner is:

Fat splatter dots on your dress--check.

Contented yummy sounds whilst everyone tucks in--check.

A satisfied calm after the storm including toothpicks and doggy bags--check.

And then the dessert shows up?!

Then, yep, that was our group last night: Worry-Free at Blue Smoke.

Great food, great company and great chat!

Here are some pictures of our dining experience; the plates started small and just kept coming, with more and more!

Please excuse the blurry nature of my pictures, my hands were thick with beef rib goodness and it was all I could do to remember to take them before or during the meal.

Menu:

Chicken wings, sauce on the side, natch:

3 sausage samples, that andouille just killed me:

Chicken and mash:

Texas salt & pepper ribs, with pork and beans and cole slaw:

Mixed berries and GF Cherrybrook brownies:

Plates and plates of goodness, once we had wiped them clean, and my favorite GF BBQ sauce:

BIG THANK YOUS to Lissa, Group Dining and Private Events Manager at Blue Smoke for working with us to put this together; our server Simone; manager Nicholas; pastry chef for making our GF brownies with Cherrybrook mix; and sous Chef Alex for taking such great care of us, and with a sense of humor too!

What our WFD parents are saying about us:

"I would like to say that my Worry-Free Dinners experience at Blue Smoke was the all time best restaurant experience my son has ever had. The attention to every detail made him feel totally safe without there being over emphasis on him. Every person at the table enjoyed the meal...allergic or not. As parents of an allergic child, there are no words to describe how happy we were to see him enjoy himself so much. Much appreciation to Sloane and the Worry-Free Dinners team!” - CP

“My daughter has celiac and usually has very few choices when we go out to eat. Last nights dinner at Blue Smoke was delicious and not only did she COMPLETELY enjoy her meal, my whole family did. The restaurant was great in every way. Thanks for a great evening, you really made it an enjoyable experience!” - NP

Thank you so much for organizing such a wonderful family event. We really appreciated that you went out of the way to address all of our son's food restrictions. It was so nice to learn how other families deal with the challenges that come with raising a child with severe allergies. The food at Blue Smoke was delicious, the conversations were great, the stress that generally accompanies eating out was gone and we look forward to future Worry-Free Dinners." - JM

"Worry-Free Dinners gave my child a chance to eat restaurant food for the first time in his life. At bedtime, he declared “eating at the restaurant was my favorite thing this weekend!” After spending time with other families and Sloane, I have confidence that I could actually work with a restaurant staff to have a safe family meal out."- JZB
