With many of the lolo type places you can watch the food go from the grill to the plate....skip the sides and you would be safe.
Good luck. Can't imagine the anxiety this would cause as a parent. Yes and even more anxious for my son. He is very worried about cross contamination. Poor kid would rather not eat then take a chance. We may end up feeding him at the condo first so he can relax. I think that ambulance ride in the Bahamas when he was 3 scarred him for life! Most places in the US are very allergy friendly and luckily we never had an issue in Mexico. We were very familiar with the spanish words for peanut and tree nut. We even made him a landyard with a sign that said No cacahuates y nueces por favor. Then also explained in spanish that he could die if he consumed them. That way they knew how serious it is.
