Garbanzo Mediterranean Grill

There's a new restaurant opening in Fort Collins in a few days: Garbanzo Mediterranean Grill. Having a soy intolerance, I don't try new restaurants often. As long as the place has a salad, I can eat there. Lettuce/vegetables are the only surefire way to not have a soy attack.
I saw an article in the local newspaper about the new Mediterranean grill who was claiming to have healthy food. Healthy to me means minimal ingredients. Soybean oil is a main ingredient in many processed foods. Not only soybean oil, but a variety of words and phrases that can't even be pronounced.  I went hunting on the website for Garbanzo to see what they were all about. Much to my surprise, they have an allergen menu that is downloadable! There are a lot of options for me that are soy-free. Cheers to them for having this info readily available to their customers. It's takes the guess work out of eating at a new restaurant for us food allergy individuals.
