So, I was watching Dr. Oz yesterday and saw a preview for the local news. They were featuring a young chef, David Ralic, who has added a wls section to his menu.

Apparently, this young man (26) had the sleeve done a month ago...yay sleeve! Anyway, the new menu was available starting yesterday. I plan to check him out as soon as I am able to eat regular meals. Kudos to him!!!

For anyone who is interested, I have included a link to an article that featured him and his website.

Enjoy...

I used to live fairly close to there (an hour away I'd guess?) and might have visited if they had it when I did. I always hate ordering off of the regular menu' date=' because I eat a small amount and invariably the waiter or waitress will ask if the meal is ok/something's wrong. Drives me up a wall.[/quote']

Tell them "No, and actually I've lost my appetite." Free Meal.

Thanks littlebits. What a brilliant thing to do for bariatric patients. I wish we had something like that in my city. I hope heaps of wls peeps descend on the place and make it a roaring success, and in so doing encourage more chefs to do this.

thanx so much for sharing this.

restaurants and others are taking notice that WLS have so many people now (kindof sad though) - we need to be noticed. Menus are a great place to start.

April 26' date=' 2012 i had a knee replacement - in the hospital & then the rehab area they both had a separate dietary group/menu for WLS patients.

I'll drink to that - of course sugar free iced tea

I live in DE. So, I'm thinking that I am like 45 minutes away...not sure though.

I appreciate this thank you for posting. I do well with medium filet with a steak sauce and the portion he has listed is perfect. Lots of times I tell the waiter to hold the sides since I usually don't eat them and I hate the idea of wasting the food.

You're welcome!

This is exciting - and I'm only an hour away! I can't wait to go! Thank you!!

Robin, you're welcome! I can't wait to go.
