If you don't mind me asking do you eat eggs or dairy?

Went to Mythos yesterday and noted that many of the menu items can be prepared gluten free or vegan so just ask the staff they will be happy to work with your needs.

Nope. Vegan. I do get ONE adult milkshake from the Cowfish though.
P.S. The pad thai at Confisco's has fish sauce

I don't understand???

I was really hoping you would elaborate @tribbleorlfl, as I am curious to know what you meant. Either- Please don't remind me about how delicious the adult milkshakes are at the Cowfish- I can't get there for months. OR you have some misguided, ignorant, intolerant stereotype of the way people choose to live their lives. I personally don't care what race, gender, creed, religious affiliation, vocation, or even diet people are/ choose- just as long as you're not a crappy person. Namaste

Sorry, I suppose I should have elaborated to eliminate ambiguity. I was referring to the comment about Confisco's Pad Thai containing fish sauce, a fact I know all too well after working there for almost 2 years.

That stuff is seriously the nastiest, rankest swill I have ever had the misfortune of smelling. The first time I had to prep a 5 gallon batch of the Pad Thai sauce and opened the fish sauce bottles, I almost threw up in a garbage can.

After cooking up 1,000's of Pad Thais and making barrels of the base, I have a involuntary revulsion every time I see the words "Pad Thai" on a menu or think of that God-awful stench. Such was the case when I saw that comment.

That being said, I do think I deserve a bit of an apology because I never said, nor implied, any slight against vegetarianism. While I personally enjoy a balnced diet of meat and vegetables, my wife is an on again-off again vegetarian and you're talking to the guy that got a roasted vegetable quesadilla on the menu at Mythos because I didn't think there were enough vegetarian options (that was over 10 years ago). To call me "misguided, ignorant and intollerant" is, ironically, ignorant in this regard.

My apologies:
1. That you had to experience that degree of fish sauce and 2. that you thought I called you ignorant ( just asked if you were ). The internet- the best way to misinterpret what someone means (on my part). I am just used to being attacked or ridiculed for what I eat- what I don't eat really. I shouldn't assume, that's unfair. Again, apologies- cheers!
