Kouzina Bebe

Little Bay · Greek · Mediterranean · €⁠€⁠€⁠€

The chocolate mud cake is described as 'dairy free', and the AGFG listing specifically includes 'Dairy Free Options' as a feature, yet the allergen label warns it contains almond and soy and may contain traces of milk. Dairy-free items exist, but because the kitchen is shared, cross-contamination is a real possibility.
