Eating in restaurants- help!

Eve

I will be eating out a lot soon due to a holiday and I wonder if you have tips and tricks to make it as pleasant an experience as possible, autism-style? Stuck out tongue winking eye Let me know as well if you know of any autism friendly restaurants in London!

  • Some excellent advice here. I find eating out with one person I trust as you mention, easier than with others. Could you eat out as in outside? perhaps one of London's many parks where you cna focus on watching a pond and listen to the friend. I find that the sounds of nature are far more pleasant than the sounds of humans. But I guess it depends on if you are heat sensitive and also these places will be busy!
