Charlotte, Nc Area Restaurants: Great Experiences This Weekend

Today is my birthday.  So this weekend was filled with people wanting to take me out to dinner.  I was very nervous going out so much.  But I had wonderful experiences at the following places:

 

eeZ Fusion & Sushi

16925 Birkdale Commons Pkwy, Huntersville, NC 28078

 

The Cowfish Sushi Burger Bar

4310 Sharon Rd, Charlotte, NC 28211

 

BLT Steak Charlotte

110 N College St, Charlotte, NC 28202

 

Eez and Cowfish are sister stores.  The menu is great and easy to read.  You don't have to ask for a gluten-free menu.  Everything is clearly marked on their standard menu.  They accomodated my special request without a single blink.  The manager at eeZ came over just after we ordered and welcomed me and assured me they would take special care of my order.  I never asked for him to come over.  He just did.  Cowfish was just as friendly and accommodating.  I will eat at both places again.  I had sushi at both restaurants.  Although, my friend had a burger at Cowfish and it looked to wonderful.  It was huge. Next time I go, I will order one sans bun.  

 

BLT Steak was very good, expensive, but worth it for a special occasion.  They had a nice gluten-free menu with several options.  The wait staff seemed to know exactly what my needs were and never made me feel as though I was a PITA to deal with.  

 

I did not experience cross contamination at any of the restaurants.  The wait staff at all three places were great, accommodating and acted happy to take care of me.

      Welcome to the forum, @JenFur! You must be relatively new to the celiac journey. I wish it were as simple as just having to cut out gluten and all our gut issues magically disappear. It is very common for those with celiac disease to develop intolerance/sensitivity to other foods. Often it is because the protein structure of some other foods resembles that of gluten. Sometimes it is because damage the damage done to the gut lining by celiac disease wipes out cells that produce enzymes needed to break down those foods. Sometimes it is because the "leaky gut syndrome" associated with celiac disease causes the immune system to incorrectly identify other food proteins as threats or invaders. The two most common non-gluten foods that cause trouble for a lot of celiacs are dairy and oats. But soy, eggs and corn are also on that list. Sometimes these non-gluten food intolerances disappear with time and the healing of the villous lining of the small bowel.

      I love popcorn but it doesn't love me.  Right now my gut hurts and I am bloated and passing gas.  Am I just super sensitive. I thought popcorn was gluten free 🤔

      Welcome to the forum, @marinke! "Type 1a diabetes (DM1) is associated with an increased risk of celiac disease (celiac disease) (1)." from: https://diabetesjournals.org/care/article/35/10/2083/38503/IgA-Anti-transglutaminase-Autoantibodies-at-Type-1 "The prevalence of celiac disease (celiac disease) in children with type 1 diabetes (T1D) is 5.1%, and it is often asymptomatic (1)." from: https://diabetesjournals.org/care/article/48/2/e13/157637/Diagnostic-Outcomes-of-Elevated-Transglutaminase So, this is 5x the rate found in the general population.

      Hi James47, You are less than 2 years into your recovery from Celiacs.  Tell us more about the problems you are having. Do you just want to get rid of belly fat or are you still having symptoms like gas and bloating.    For symptoms you may need to change your diet and take various supplements that you cannot adsorb from the foods you eat because of the damage caused by the autoimmune reaction in your small intestine.

      My daughter (4 years old) has type 1 diabetes since she was 1. Therefore, every year a screening is done. We live in the Netherlands. Every year the screening was fine. This year here ttg is positive, 14, >7 is positive. IGA was in range. Could the diabetes cause this positive result? Or the fact that she was sick the weeks before the brood test?
