A friend of mine who has Celiac is coming up in 2 weeks, and we are going to go to Risotteria and then I will take him here, so we can try it out. I'll let you all know my review.

Happy Happy Happy is pretty good. Can be a tad on the dry side but definately worth going to. I keep meaning to try Babycakes which is another gluten-free bakery in the city,

You will not be disappointed with Risotteria. It's awesome.

a friend of mine brought HHH's cupcakes to my birthday, and they were fine. a MUCH better option, imho, is the fudgie at risotteria-- 2 fanTAStic chocolate chip cookies (that taste light and chewy like "real" cookies) with a ton of chocolate fudge frosting between them. probably dessert for a family of 8. i finished it in a night.

gobble gobble.

I'm so happy you liked it!

A panini and a fudgie from Risoterria AND my (early) b-day cake came from Mr Ritts bakery today - I am in gluten-free, sugar-filled HEAVEN!

The fudgie at Risotteria is AMAZING!!!! I went there a few months ago with 2 non-celiac friends and we were all devouring that thing as if we'd never eaten before!!

Lauren M Explorer

Jillian,

For the record, when we all get together at Risoterria in January, the goal is for us each to finish our OWN fudgie - deal? :lol:

I know I can do it! Anyone else up to the challenge?

- Lauren

jkmunchkin Rising Star

LOL!!! I'm up for it Lauren : )

Have you tried the yellow cake they have with raspberry and chocolate frosting? I don't think they have it every day but it is awesome!

Lauren M Explorer

Wow, Jillian, that sounds amazing! Unfortunately, yesterday was only my second time at Risoterria, and they haven't had that cake yet. Yesterday they had the cookies, brownies, and some pie. I'm not a big pie person, so I went with the fudgie. It was an excellent choice :P

      You are welcome! We frequently get similar comments. Knowledge about celiac disease in the medical community at large is, unfortunately, still significantly lacking. Sometimes docs give what are obviously bum steers or just fail to give any steering at all and leave their patients just hanging out there on a limb. GI docs seem to have better knowledge but typically fail to be helpful when it comes to things like assisting their patients in grasping how to get started on gluten free eating. The other thing that, to me at least, seems to be coming to the forefront are the "tweener" cases where someone seems to be on the cusp of developing celiac disease but kind of crossing back and forth over that line. Their testing is inconsistent and inconclusive and their symptoms may come and go. We like to think in definite categorical terms but real life isn't always that way.

      Hey @Morgan Tiernan, Sounds just like my experience. I was diagnosed with dermatitis herpetiformis over 10 years ago. It appeared suddenly as a very itchy rash which looked like Eczema. When a steroid cream didn't clear it up, my Dermatologist (who had come across it before) suspected dermatitis herpetiformis and performed a skin biopsy which came back positive for dermatitis herpetiformis. The important thing is to get a definitive diagnosis of dermatitis herpetiformis. What you've described sounds like classic dermatitis herpetiformis though. Hopefully, your Dermatologist has come across dermatitis herpetiformis before and performs the skin biopsy correctly as trents mentioned. I've had the blisters on the knees, hips, forearms/elbows or anywhere that pressure is applied to the skin ... from clothing or otherwise. They itch like nothing on earth, and yes salt from sweat or soaps/shower gels will irritate a lot. I've been on Dapsone and it is very very effective at eliminating the dermatitis herpetiformis itch, and improved my quality of life in the early stages of getting on top of dermatitis herpetiformis while I adjusted to the gluten-free diet. But it does have various side effects as trents said. It can effect the red blood cells, lowering hemoglobin and can cause anemia, and requires regular blood monitoring whilst on it. You would need to consider it carefully with your Dermatologist if you do have dermatitis herpetiformis. Here's a very informative webinar from Coeliac Canada discussing everything dermatitis herpetiformis related.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PAdmsNiyfOw I've also found this recent interview with a Dermatologist about dermatitis herpetiformis to be educational.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rZnLeKutgUY Keep the chin up and keep advocating for yourself for a proper diagnosis. Though it sounds like you're on top of that already. Are you in the UK or Ireland? I'm curious because your surname is Irish.

      Thanks again everyone! Twenty mins on here way more helpful than both Dr's combined 😅

      I would go for four weeks to ensure a valid test, if you can tolerate it, that is.
