Hey --

I just saw something online about Legal Seafoods having a gluten free menu... has anyone gone & tried it? They didn't have a menu available online, but there is one close to me in Chestnut Hill that listed a gluten-free/wine-pairing dinner in July that I missed!!

Let me know if anyone has tried it. Thanks! Have a great day...

i have been there both in NJ and in DC. each time i've gone i've gotten very good service. the manager comes out and serve you personally. they seem very serious about dietary problems and understand cross contamination issues. plus the food is fantastic! i recommend the calamari (they bread it with corn meal) and the lobster casserole, which has gluten free bread crumbs!

THANKS! Yum, Lobster casserole & calamari sound amazing!!

That's nice to hear about the manager too, I also have found when I mention the issue, people are very helpful... I had a chef in a small restaurant look up all the stuff I was going to order on-line to make sure it was gluten-free before serving it to me! Such a nice guy!!

Hi - They do have a gluten free menu but we haven't been to Legal's since my daughter's diagnosis. We used to go a lot, though, and have always loved it. As for the gluten free food/wine pairing, I didn't go but I did see it advertised in the Boston Globe.

I have been to the Brookline and Braintree locations with yummy food and no problems. Have fun!

I ate there many times last year while visiting on business. It's awesome!

Hi there,

Yes, they most certainly do have a celiac menu available! I just was recently diagnoised and I went to Legal Seafoods in Garden City, NY with my folks. They gave me a regular menu. As I was scrolling through the front page, I noticed all the way on the bottom, in bold letters it said "Celiac Menu Available". I had a such a huge smile on my face. I actually got a stuffed lobster. Instead of their traditional ritz cracker/seafood combination stuffing, they use either gluten-free breadcrumbs mixed with seafood or a brown rice/seafood combination. Either way, it was quite delicious!!! Now if only they made their new england clam chowder gluten free (sigh).

I know the Massachusett's Legals also have the same celiac menu... since I visit there quiet often to visit family.

Either way, enjoy Legal! I know I do B)

      Using a pressure cooker will break down Lectins.  Long cooking times as in using a crock pot will also reduce Lectin content.   However, having tried both, going lectin free for a few weeks is like a vacation for my digestive system.  I do hope you give the AIP diet a try.  I understand that changing ones diet takes a lot of mental readjustment which is difficult, but it's really worth the effort for long-term health.

      Depending on which source you research sprouting or fermentation can reduce lectins. I sprout rice, buckwheat and quinoa. However, I admit that gas and intestinal inflammation still plague me after 5 1/2 mo gluten-free. I have been resisting but I may try the aip diet at some point.

      Hi @jadeceoliacuk I am a UK based coeliac and I have used a private nutritionist a few times. She is very highly qualified and having just googled her details, she is listed on this website (see link).  For that reason, I think you could trust the listings here as I am quite sure she would not want to associate with this website unless it was a professional, trustworthy resource. https://www.nutritionist-resource.org.uk/ I hope this helps.

      thank you knitty kitty. I will give those articles a read. Yes he is deficient in Iron and Vit D, that is all they tested for. Do you have any tips for finding a pediatric nutritionalist? He has an NHS dietician who has been helpful sending me generalised info on increasing Iron and cutting out dairy but they won't see him now for another year and I feel like I need more support than that...

      Yes,  Lisinopril gave me an inguinal hernia from the persistant cough. Amlodipine doubled urine output and dry eyes so I could not wear contacts, another had me walking bent over like a ninety year old and one knocked out control of my quadracepts so knees would give out.  None lowered my blood pressure. Average BP  132/67 for Oct 21 - 26.  Lowest was 100/59. High 157/62.
