Shouldn't be an issue but say it to the restaurant first, out of courtesy.

Tell the restaurant, I'm sure they won't mind.

You might some strange looks from people, but pay no attention to the,.

My daughter is coeliac and we have found that gravy in the vast majority of places is gluten free but I couldn't see any problem bringing your own if they weren't able to provide you with a GF version.

A proper gravy in a decent restaurant should be gluten free anyway. Check with them.

Gravy flask sounds like an urbandictionary entry.

Just call ahead and ask if they can provide it, or you’re happy to bring your own. Usually the problem with restaurants is that people arrive at 7:30 on Saturday night expecting menu adjustments that could have been catered for ahead of time if the kitchen had known.

Sure bring your own soup while you're at it

thanks everyone, just edited title there now as I should have included sauce.

He got caught out yesterday with what should have been GF parsley sauce, but was not, may have been his own fault though as he talks very low and not his usual servers.

Was sick as a dog last night.

Would take all the stress of eating out for him to bring his own.

Many places will let you bring your own wine, for a corkage fee.

Edit: And the venue will save money, by not giving him a portion of gravy.

The hell it would be,!! Real gravy has flour in it... There are several meat sauces ( and some packet gravys that would be gluten free..)
So check... Plan on bringing your flask... And don't assume anything on a menu is gluten free.. It's surprising how many things have flour..

A restaurateur on RTE radio about six or eight months ago was discussing dietary requirements and said that any restaurant worth it's salt does not thicken gravy with flour.
