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!

  • I mostly have the same advise as everyone else,

    Sit with your back to a wall, check menus before hand so you're not surprised, I'm generally careful with menus that don't tell me all the components because with some things I get a surprise sauce or mayonnaise that I can't eat. 

    I also take earplugs always. Even if you can't stand eating with the things, they're useful while you're waiting for food and waiting for the waiter. Mine generally allow me to hear someone in front of me but mute the surrounding sound.
