Review of Ala Shanghai Chinese Cuisine

After the excellent reviews, we decided to give this place a try because I love (and miss) Chinese food. We ordered the GF Sweet & Sour Chicken, General Tso’s Chicken, Singapore Rice Noodles, and Shrimp Dumplings, and we mentioned multiple times our entire order should be gluten free. The meal was delicious, but that night, I started cramping and was in pain the whole next day. I chalked it up to the Moscow Mule drink I ordered (since I did not confirm that was Gluten free) and the day after that, when I was feeling better, I had some leftovers from dinner. Again, I began cramping and was in pain that afternoon until the following morning. I don’t know if they messed up my order or what, but now I’m afraid to eat here again, and I’m really bummed! (I have a gluten allergy, not celiacs.)
