I am heading to Philly for a wedding and would like some info on places that are safe to eat while I am there. Does anyone have any suggestions? Anything you have would be helpful!

Thanks so much.

Will you be downtown? If so, here are some places:

Ted's Montana Grille

Roy's

Maggianos

Chickie and Pete's (south philly)

Mr. Ritz gluten free bakery (off of south street) - take out only

I will let you know if I think of any other ones!

I would recommend calling ahead for Maggiano's... they sometimes run out of the gluten-free pasta.

We also like the White Dog Cafe... the chef was very knowledgable about celiac and was very specific about ingredients (such as the mashed potatos.)

My kids live in Phila. and my middle daughter has Celiac. She's found managers to be most cooperative and helpful, especially when she calls ahead and talks to them before rush hour. Her favs are El Vez and any of the Steven Starr restaurants.

Thanks so much for your input! I will certainly give these places a look! If you think of any more, please let me know. I like my options :P

We loved Ted's MOntana Grill while we were there. Also Sazon's corn arepas were great. Also if you want to take a hike to Doylestown Jules gluten-free pizza is terrific. I would drive there again for it.You can buy gluten-free items at Dietary Shoppe, she has a nice selection.

Ruth Chris Steakhouse is pricey but good....All the above were knowledegable on gluten-free....

enjoy your stay

      Thanks sending me additional links including how to test for thiamine deficiency. With regards to your first link, I wasn't diagnosed with giardiasis and I didn't take antibiotic for it. I try to generally stay away from antibiotic unless absolutely necessary as it might affect gut health. For treating phimosis, the doctor didn't give me antibiotics. I need to have a circumcision surgery which I haven't got around to schedule it.

      I'm not vegan, just vegetarian. I consume dairy but not egg. So I have started including some Vitamin D fortified milk as well as a multivitamin with 2000 IU daily. For Vitamin B12, like you said it's very difficult to get it from just vegetarian sources and have started consuming Vitamin B Complex daily. My PCP was worried when my Vitamin D result came out as It was 3.7 ng/ml last year. He said that being low for a lengthy time could have done some damage to the body over the years. Now, though Vitamin D level has improved after the supplements, I'm not sure if the neurological damage has already been done. I'll continue including the supplements and see if my symptoms improve. I'll also get tested for celiac to see if I need to be in gluten-free diet.

      The positive DQ2 result is important since it suggests a genetic predisposition to celiac, but the bloodwork not showing clear signs is confusing. The inflammation in her stomach could still be related, and it’s worth pushing for more tests, like a biopsy or a deeper look at other possible causes. It’s a tough spot, but you’re on the right track trying to get clarity.
    • dublin555
      I totally agree, it’s so much more than just the physical struggle that occurs, there is the emotional struggle that goes along with it. It’s almost like you’re always navigating people who are uncomfortable with your needs and that pressure really wears you down. The fact is, the one that really did care will understand. This has nothing to do with you being a burden, it’s about protecting your health, first and foremost. If they don’t like being honest, that’s their problem.

      @ABP2025, Here's some studies and articles that will help you learn more about thiamin and all... I will write more later. It's possible that your antibiotic for giardiasis has caused thiamine deficiency.   https://hormonesmatter.com/metronidazole-toxicity-thiamine-deficiency-wernickes-encephalopathy/ And... https://hormonesmatter.com/thiamine-deficiency-testing-understanding-labs/ And... Thiamine and benfotiamine: Focus on their therapeutic potential https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10682628/ and...
