Bonefish Grill / G/f Bread Basket

I went to Bonefish Grill last night in Secaucus, NJ. It was a pretty good experience. They had a good selection of gluten-free meals and the waitress didn't look at me like I had three heads when I told her my meal needed to be gluten-free. She offered to bring me the gluten-free menu and was upset I had a print out. I had printed out my own from the website.

She went on to say how everything was prepared from scratch so I felt confident the chefs knew what they were doing to prepare my meal gluten-free. I had the Saucy Shrimp appetizer and the Mahi Mahi meal in the lemon butter sauce. Both were good although the sauce on the Mahi mahi was a little bland. They have other gluten-free sauces so when I go back I will try a different one.

The only two problems were small. The waitress offered up my shrimp app. as a good sauce to dip bread in. Which no one did until I was done with the shrimp. I know, a very small error on her part but it goes to show how others don't totally get it.

Also, the Creme Brulee was listed on the website as gluten-free and it wasn't. This was actually a plus on the waitress' part as she went in to check to see if it was gluten-free. She suspected it wasn't. Something to do with the vanilla extract they use made it not gluten-free.

Well, I did get a dessert as my friend who's son has celiac disease brought me a gluten-free black & white cookie from the gluten-free bread basket in Chester, NY. She didn't even know it was one of my favorite cookies - just a coincidence. My wife didn't even know. Anyway it was very good as I thought I would never have one of those suckers again. She also brought me a snickerdoodle cheese cake from the same place and that was good as well. My non celiac wife even agreed. It was my very unhealthy breakfast this morning. I know but we had to indulge when we get these treats - right?

And I concur, their food is amazing... my mom just came out to visit me at college this weekend for my gymnastics meet and brought a cooler full of food for me. Talk about spoiling me:-). I'm not typically a person that likes chocolate, but lately I've been craving it-- the chocolate bundt cake is to die for. It's quite rich though, it's going to last me quite a while (in the freezer of course). I'm savoring my peanut butter cookies, it was all I could do not to eat all of them in one sitting. The bagels of course are great, and I'm really excited to eat my muffins (chocolate chip, pumpkin, and banana this time), and speaking of those black and white cookies... when my mom went to buy all the food, the owner of the bakery said she simply couldn't go to visit me without a black and white cookie... and she didn't even know that those were probably my favorite cookie as a kid!

I'm going to be on a sugar high for the next week...... and enjoying every minute of it!

I also have nejoyed Bonefish Grill. They are owned by the same company that owns Outback and Carrabas.

I did not like Carrabas as well - thought the menu was too limited. Claire

I love Bonefish too, I've never had a problem them but I go over everything when I order and when the food is delivered. I agree that the staff there has been briefed on gluten issues, every time I've ever been in a Bonefish they have always known about gluten-free.

      Dr. Reddy’s Sandoz sumatriptan gluten-free?

      By elizabethhousworth · Posted

      Thanks. My son has been on B2 for two to three years now. I found literature about B1 earlier and put him on a B1 supplement, but not thiamine tetrahydrofurfuryl disulfide specifically. He also gets D and Magnesium. He goes to his doctor in June and I am going to ask for bloodwork to look for any deficiencies. What I suspect is that he is having a gluten-like reaction to the proteins in other grains. It is well known that a small percentage of celiac patients react to the protein in oats. Oats are in gluten-free Oreos, so we removed them. He got a little better. The science with oats is pretty solid. My son's nutritionist knows about it and it is easily found in PubMed. I suspect my son is reacting to something else. The next thing that I only just removed was corn, at least things with corn protein. I need to give that a couple of months. If that doesn't work, I will try to replace his cheese with goat-milk cheese, although that will be hard.    My son was migraine free for over a year on a strict gluten-free diet before this past fall. I can test his foods for gluten and I have given in to diet rigidity. He eats my homemade refried beans and rice for lunch every day, so his rigid diet contains pretty healthy components. Given his antibody levels (tTG-IgA very low) and that I tested everything under the son that he ingests when his migraines returned and nothing tested positive for gluten, I think he really is gluten-free. So my personal working hypothesis is that he is having a reaction to a similar protein, one in another grain. However, the neurologist sees migraines come and go in lots of normal people, so it might just be that he is now having multiple (3-10) migraines monthly and it is hormonal or weather-related or something that is entirely distinct from an antibody reaction. I just would like them to go away again, as would he.    Thanks again! Elizabeth

      Duodenum biopsy result confusion

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      Welcome to the forum, @jamiet06, Yes, it does point in that direction.  Your report says "Correlation with clinical findings and results of serological studies is recommended"  is saying you should undergo a gluten challenge and be tested for antibodies associated with Celiac Disease.   These antibodies are produced in celiac disease in response to gluten, but you have to eat generous amounts of gluten for the antibodies to show up in the bloodstream. A gluten challenge means you eat 10 grams or more of gluten  (4 to 6 slices of gluten containing bread or equivalent or more) per day for a minimum of two weeks.

      @elizabethhousworth, I found that supplementing with Riboflavin Vitamin B2 has helped my migraines immensely.   Effect of Vitamin B2 supplementation on migraine prophylaxis: a systematic review and meta-analysis https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/33779525/ "Conclusions: A pooled analysis of available randomized controlled clinical trials demonstrated that Vitamin B2 400 mg/day for three months supplementation had significant effect on days, duration, frequency, and pain score of migraine attacks." Dr. Derrick Lonsdale and Dr. Chandler Marrs  have found supplementing with a form if thiamine vitamin B1 called TTFD (tetrahydrofurfuryl disulfide) helps in autism.  Treatment of autism spectrum children with thiamine tetrahydrofurfuryl disulfide: a pilot study https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/12195231/ The Rationale for Vitamin, Mineral, and Cofactor Treatment in the Precision Medical Care of Autism Spectrum Disorder https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC9964499/ Hope this helps!

      Multi vitamin plus iron

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      Interesting reading on Histamine Intolerance (HIT): Histamine Intolerance: The Current State of the Art https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC7463562/ Histamine Intolerance—The More We Know the Less We Know. A Review https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC8308327/   We need the enzyme DAO (Diamond Oxidase) to break down histamine.  Our body can make DAO with Pyridoxine B6, Vitamin C, and copper.  B12, zinc and magnesium, as well as thiamine, help, too.   DAO supplements made from beef or pork kidneys are available, too.

      Thank you! I did not realize the role of thiamine in hit healing. I will look for Life Extension then.
