I'm traveling to Seattle this week, and I'm looking for info on the best gluten free dining, especially on a budget. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Try Kaili's Kitchen. If you are going to be in the area, and want to try a gluten-free restaurant, you just shouldn't miss it.

It's a 100% gluten free restaurant, where you can have bacon cheese burger with fries, pizzas, egg roles and tofu appetizers, onion rings, fried chicken, pancakes, salad with croutons, old fashioned bread baskets, and all kinds of cakes, and cinamons roles, and pies that look like something out of a classic 50's diner.

And you'd never guess in a million years that anything was gluten free. In fact, it is all delicious and looks much less watered down from the sort of classic homestyle food than what you'd see in Denny's. The bread tastes like your grandmother or a German bakery made it. The cakes are the kind that everyone's grandmother would see as up to snuff, unlike those store bought items.

In fact, there are accounts of people walking into Kaili's eating the food and thinking it is delicious with no idea that it is "special diet" food.

But asbolutely everything is 100% guaranteed gluten free. And they will be helpful with other issues, and even have an egg free, soy free variation of their (already CF) sourdough bread.

Plus they let you order pizzas, bread, cakes, pies, cookie dough, and more to take home as well.

I sure wish we had a place like that here.

I second that!! Man, reading that post sure made me hungry. We travel to Seattle occasionally, it's only a few hours from here. I am definitely going there next time! Maybe there is hope for having a restaurant hamburger and fries in my future!!! I think I'll start planning our next trip right now..... :P

I just called Kaili's Kitchen because I couldn't get to their website, and she said that they are looking for ways to expand, and open new restaurants, and Spokane (about 20 minutes from me) is definitely a future option. I have butterflies in my stomach just imagining having a bacon cheeseburger and fries or onion rings-or pizza! I will begin praying today that they will open one here.

If only restaurant financiers knew what a loyal group of customers celiacs would be. They would have a guaranteed customer base! If ever there were a business that you were guaranteed to succeed in the restaurant industry, a gluten free restaurant would be the one!

Mmmm... sounds so good. I'm going to be going up to Seattle in the near-ish future, half to visit friends, half to try out a restaurant I can actually eat at!

Idahogirl, dogear... do either of you know if any items are dairy and soy-free, too?

I believe many of their items are dairy-free and some may be soy-free. Be aware that they are not open on Monday or Tuesday, however.

      It may be naturally gluten-free but I worry about cross contamination as my kiddo has had bad reactions if things aren't actually gluten free.

      They will have to put him back on gluten in order to get accurate tests results, so all the progress may be lost for a while. My grandson was 2 1/2 years old when he, his father, and his mother, were diagnosed.  He was not even on the chart for height or weight and had not been on the chart since he was 12 months old.  The first month he went gluten free he gained 6 pounds and grew an inch.  Unfortunately, he missed a whole lot of opportunity to grow in those first years.  He remained the smallest, skinniest kid in the class until high school when he clawed his way into the middle row for pictures.  He is 20 and topped out at 5 ft 6 inches.  His mother is 5'7 in a family where everyone is 6 feet tall or more.   His younger brother was 7 months old when he was diagnosed.  At 18 he is 6ft tall.  Best to catch it as early as possible.

      Maybe you picked up a little intestinal virus? Maybe some ingredient in the gluten free processed foods you've been consuming is causing this. In order to simulate the texture that wheat provides, a lot of gluten free products contain ingredients that may cause digestive distress. Xanthan gum and similar polysaccharides are among the chief offenders.

      Welcome @Ems10, Isn't is wonderful how a simple change helps. Gluten free eating is not a punishment.  It does take attention to details when buying processed foods.

      Hey Talia4, I still try to stay on the lower end of carb intake but things are way easier for me these days. It really looks like a digestive issue at the core in my case   As supplements with meals I'm now taking 3-4x 650mg betaine hcl without pepsin (to handle larger doses) 1-2x Doctor's Best digestive enzymes   And daily Share Pommelozzini. This has helped my digestion immensely with carbs and fats. I'm way more tolerant of larger meals and things are a lot easier. Happy to hear any progress or findings on your end as well though!
