Speaking Of Knishes.... Another Restaurant With A gluten-free Menu


jkmunchkin

Recommended Posts

I mentioned awhile back that my family was starting a gluten free menu in one of our restaurants... well we did, and it's all set!

We don't have gluten free knishes (sorry), but we are a traditional Kosher restaurant (take out deli counter and sit down service). In the past 5 years, we have been voted by the readers of Westchester Magazine best pastrami and/or best kosher restaurant (depending on the year it was different categories).

We have lettuce wrap sandwiches of any of the cold cuts including: pastrami, corned beef, turkey, salami, roast beef, tongue, turkey-pastrami, ect.

Some entrees include: goulash over rice (it's like beef stew), omlettes, roast chicken, skirt steak and lots more.

Oh and the best soups!!! We have chicken rice every day and a soup of the day alternating throughout the week. Chicken Florentine (one of my personal favorites), Lentil (or another favorite), Potato and Pea Soup.

There is more stuff, but this is off the top of my head.

Here's the info:

Epsteins Kosher Deli

385 N. Central Avenue

Hartsdale, NY 10530

914-428-5320

I'm not there during the week, but if anyone was to stop by on a Saturday or Sunday around lunchtime or mid-afternoon, there is always a good chance I'm there eating or just saying hello.

hey I actually went there over the summer and it was soooo good!!! Your mom and dad are really nice. You have to thank them for me :) I have a random question, I remember reading that you've gone to a hibachi restaurant and had no problems. Which hibachi restaurant did you go to and what did you say to them?

Thanks

Thanks Erica!!!

We've been getting a great response from people.

Funny you should mention the hibachi place. I just went there again Saturday night. We go to Noda's in White Plains. I bring my San-J wheat free soy sauce with me, and the first time I brought my Triumph Dining card. I don't often use them (actually that was the 1st time I tried it), but I was afraid it might be to complicated to explain. I basically gave them the card and the soy sauce and explained that while my husband could have his food prepared with everyone elses, I needed them to cook mine in the back in a clean pan with clean utensils.

When we went this time I did the same, and was very pleasantly suprised that even though it had been probably over a month since the last time I was there, the waitress came back within a couple minutes with the dining card and said, "the chef has cooked for you before hasn't he?" I told her he had, and she said he remembers how to make my food!

They are really nice and accomodating there.

Yeah we love Noda's!! It was one of our favorite places before being diagnosed and I was so happy to figure out a way to continue going there.

Good luck for you boyfriends birthday. Let me know how it goes.

Thanks! we are going tonight. I'm really excited. :) But I have one more question, is it okay to have the salad with the dressing and the soup?

I'm so sorry I just saw this. I wasn't on all day. Unfortunately neither the salad dressing or the soup are safe. They usually just give me some oil and vinegar for the salad. I would have thought the soup was ok, but the manager (or owner) informed me that they add a tiny bit of soy sauce to it.

Let me know how it went!!!!!

Oh, this is making me hungry! Can you open up a satellite in Pittsburgh?

It was soo good. At first the lady didn't understand me. She said that they will cook my food with everybody else but just put my soy sauce. but then I explained better and they cooked it in the back. it was really good . This is the first time that I went to Noda's and my stomach didn't hurt. Then after I had a piece of homemade cheesecake. It was great. :)

      Could you not try to cut oil out and use a alternative method ? Is there really any health benefits for oil ? If it has caused do much did discomfort for your little one I'd be inclined to source a different way my granddaughter has a nut allergy it's been a roller coaster ride but we cut whatever was causing issues out and found a alternative and she's been fine 🤗

      I too have blood tests booked a Wilson and was told it's ok that I've been gluten free since for over 6 months they have also put  me in for a fecal test for calprotein and a milk allergy has I had to  stop lactose too and a IBS blood test I didn't even know you could test for IBS ? I'm going Tuesday but since reading on here I'm thinking now why bother I've been suffering for that long has I can remember I've reached out to docters since I was in my 20s im now Immy 50s was told IBS and health aniexty was my problem what prompted me to go back again this time was the long list of problems I've also had which they also know about but never said any were connected I've had bad bouts that put me in bed for days I cut carbs out years ago and saw a difference but uneducated just thout see it must be a better way of eating didn't realise it was actually showing me to cut gluten out I've been back and forth to docters that much they have put me down has I have health aniexty causing it in a nut shell it's in my head yet over the years I've had sickness medication scans over my kidneys my liver my tummy for the pain flu like symptoms were put down to my bad rhinitis hair shredding was put down to stress vitamin d deficiency put down to food my 3 herniated discs degenerative and slight sclorocis believe it or not was my posture achy legs syndrome and bad blood circulation to my low mobility threw my back I can go on and on what they tryed to tell me I got that bad i realised it's maybe more than IBS and yes I do suffer aniexty but the way they have made me feel like it's all in my head is time to stop because cutting out gluten and lactose had been the best thing I have done I only went back because I was a little worried after struggling for so long if I had damaged my bowel i just hoped I would get help threw tests sorry for long post but you are not alone with the worry of the test results but if you know yourself then you be your docter and help yourself too but always push for help if   you have abdominal pain it could be other things too it took me 15 years to get a MRI for my back you can imagine my thouts Wen I got my results that it wasn't just my posture had I'd been told even unable to walk was my fault lol  so if you are struggling seek out help anyway you can and be consistent till you get answers 🤗

      Hello @A Wilson, Glad you found us.   There is your answer.  The results from the tests are just more data to the puzzle.

      Hi @Woodster991, You do need to see a health professional to make sure it is not appendicitis.  Rebound tenderness, fever.   Is it gluten?  Yes.  It is also serious vitamin and mineral deficiency.  Either by Celiac Disease malabsortion, food avoidance or just not getting enough.  Consider significantly increasing your intake of vitamin D, B1, Choline, Iodine, B2, B3, B5, B12.  The vitamin D test, (25(OH)D, is simple and accurate. Whole Milk yogurt and berries to populate your gut with benificial bacteria.  I drink Red Bull for energy.  Eat food low in omega 6 fatty acids. The ideal ratio is less than 3 omega 6 to 1 omega 3.  For some, the Modern American Diet is estimated to be more than 14:1.  Very inflammatory.  Wheat flour is 22:1.  Grass fed milk is 1:1. Whether Celiac Disease (1% of the population) or Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity (10% of the population) would take blood tests and endoscopy. It is either that, or you have managed to contract 6 or 7 different diseases at the same time. You don't need a doctor's permission to not eat gluten anymore than you would to eat Chinese food.
