PS I inquired about cross-contamination and the owner of the bistro responded as follows:

“We are not a dedicated gluten free facility and can’t guarantee 100% gluten free, though we take precautions to reduce cross contamination.  We have a few regular customers (as well as who are both gluten free and celiac and have never had problems.)  This whole dinner is gluten free and that is only thing the kitchen will be doing that night.  Since this dinner is gluten free we are taking extra steps for this dinner.  We will be stopping all raw flour production Friday morning to allow the flour to settle.  We will deep clean all equipment Saturday night.  All prep for the dinner will be done on Sunday. Any prep will be stored in deep cleaned metal containers not plastic. The cutting board and silicone spatulas used for dinner prep, that night will be brand new to reduce cross contamination. All ingredients for the dinner will be bought that day (including sugar and salt.)”
