Traveling to the Grand Canyon from Michigan - Places to Eat

My wife and I will be traveling to the Grand Canyon this September from Michigan. Yes, I know that gas prices are going to be costly.
I searched this forum for suggestions on where to stay and eat but lot of the information is outdated. I hope I can get some current tips
on where to eat and stay during these crazy times. My wife and I want to stay visit the South Rim and East Rim.  I plan on bringing a cooler of food but I
understand that no microwaves or AC are in the hotels in the South Rim. My wife is not a Celiac so hunting for gluten-free food is my problem - lucky me. Also, if you have any tips on how to best get to the GC from MI I am open to suggestions. Thanks

Wow, this sounds like a big trip!

Not to discourage you in any way, but have you checked into flight and hotel prices for Las Vegas? The reason that I ask is because at 4 hours and 40 minutes drive from the South Rim it is a very doable day trip from Las Vegas, especially for this time of year. Of course you'd need to rent a car for this, or join one of the many tours that are offered from Las Vegas.

Las Vegas offers a multitude of hotels with more options, better prices, and things like buffets and many gluten-free restaurants:

PS - For the driving version, or even flying, also consider staying in Flagstaff, AZ, as it's only about 1.5 hours south of there, and they have many more hotel and food options. You could fly to PHX and rent a car, then drive to Flagstaff in a couple of hours, or just drive there from MI. Flagstaff is also along the original Route 66 from Chicago to LA.

      6 week challenge; How much gluten?

      Thank you everyone for your answers, they were all very helpful, and some very useful links. I am rethinking the value of having the biopsy as I’m not sure it will give any actual benefits.

      There is also something called "seronegative celiac disease" in which there is damage to the villous lining of the small bowel but no celiac antibodies are produced by the immune system. It's not very common and there can be numerous causes including infections, some medications and even some nongluten foods.  If you have dermatitis herpetiformis, that is proof positive you have celiac disease since there is no other known cause for it. If you get it biopsied during an outbreak it can be used to establish a diagnosis of celiac disease, therefore. But not every dermatologist knows how to biopsy dermatitis herpetiformis correctly and it can be difficult to get an appointment with one on short notice.

      Ty very helpful I’m in the process of getting in with a new gI doctor and will ask more about all that then and yes the rash is exactly like that. I have a half cousin with celiac but that’s it in my whole family and idk if that matters as I see it is hereditary and others say the the only in the family with it. Either way this was very much appreciated ty again.
