I am vegetarian, and eat egg whites because egg yolk and meat make me sick. I was told this place does not serve egg whites, and I was confused because I got those last time I ate here. I told the waitress that egg yolk makes me sick, and a neighboring customer chimed in to inform me of the chicken egg shortage.
I asked, can't you remove the yolk? They said "no" and "we are very busy", and the waitress said I can speak wth the manager. At this point the neighboring customers and few workers were listening in and watching, I felt uncomfortable and left. Couldn't but wonder, is this everywhere in AZ? We have no problems in California.
I wanted to see and called a nearby restaurant (4 minutes away from this place) and the manager said they serve egg whites, and removing the yolk was easy and possible to do. Why couldn't the Henhouse do the same? Do they serve egg beaters or some other egg alternative, hindering them to do so? I wouldn't know cause I only got "no" and "we can't" and "we are busy" and the final "you can speak to our manager".
My advice to the restaurant: Please post on your menu - WE DO NOT SERVE EGG WHITES - To avoid costumers feeling put in the spot. Please don't make them feel like they have to explain why they can't eat something, certainly in front of other costumers.
FYI: OTHER CLOSE RESTAURANTS SERVE EGG WHITES, JUST CALL
