Anybody eaten at the one in the Pentagon City Mall?  (Maeve?)

I just downloaded their allergen information online yesterday hoping that could be a food option for DD. They even list sesame noting it is only considered a major allergen in Canada.  I had hopes she could get a burger and fries there.

We don't have one near us so I had no idea peanut butter might be so prevalent in the kitchen.

I have eaten at the Pentagon City location.  It's been a few years; I used to live near Pentagon City.  I'm pretty sure we've been there with DD at least once.  She usually gets a grilled cheese and fries.  DD has gotten a burger at our current location (Ashburn).

Well, I spoke with management and then decided to try it.  Dd had chicken fingers and fries.  She liked it.  Ds had a burger as did I. 

The manager said they keep one wand clean if PB on the shakes for people with allergies and place those shakes away from any others.  Then, our server, overhearing that i would not let dd have a shake, said she could sanitize a container and wand and that they have a specific one for all the PB shakes.  So, opposite stories.  Umm, so which one os right and are they using the dedicated wand for allergic individuals *and* pb shakes, since there were 2 conflicting bits of information?  They are trying, but, I am not at all comfortable trusting that and I would not trust that one wand on a machine with 5 or 6 stays clean anyway. 

So, food okay for us, and no shakes for us.  The grill was opposite the fountain area, and fountain items were separate from the food items, even when set out for delivery.

I have only let ds have a shake from one local place....a deli downtown...the owner is fantastic and scrubs down and sanitizes the shake machine for pb allergies.

Yeah, I make them for the kids on my Vitamix once in awhile. 

Oreos and vanilla ice cream, a shot of milk and choc syrup?  Pretty good and I used to make them in an ice cream shop, so I make a good shake.  I also used to be the one who cleaned the Frappe machine.  I know how dirty they get, and you do not want to know about the critters crawling around under them.

The frappe machine.  Even if i didn't know where you live, I could figure it out.
