How Easy In The Big Easy

Hi,

I've been scavenging for restaurant ideas for my visit to New Orleans next week. My gal pals are also diet conscious (one's borderline diabetic) and they want to go to HerbSaint on St. Charles. Anyone eaten there?

As far as gluten free recommendations I have so far:

NOLA

Acme Oyster House

Emeril's

Red Fish Grill

Any feedback would be appreciated. Thanks!

I'm from New Orleans and I'm thinking hard.

A good resturant, slightly expensive, hard to get into, but doesn't take reservations is Galatoirs. Not sure how gluten free they are but have handled other dietary needs in the past.

The problem is alot a new orleans food depends heavily on bread pasta, bread crumbs, french bread.

When do you need this info by and what area are you staying in? Will you have car access? The area and car access I can give you a few more not immediatley in the city.

Also which Emrils? There are several and I'm not sure whioh ones if any have reopened since Katrina.

OK, got a hold of the list my dad's doctor gave him. May or may not be 100% accurate, but it's what others have said.

Irene's Cuisine #504-529-8811

Mike Anderson's Seafood #504-524-3884

Also Court of Two SIsters is known for attempting to accodomate any dietary needs. They can't promise, but often call you back once you call them to try and take care of any needs.

Dessert- Aunt Sally's Pralines in the French Quater right outside the French Market are terrific. Mayde or brown sugar, vanilla and pecans. (pretty sure they have a sugar free one)

If Commander's Palace has reopened the food is incredible and they know about gluten.

It was heavily damaged by the hurricane, though.

No Commander's Palace has not opened.

Also, bring snacks for late night snacking. There is no such thing as the late hours, like most fast food and stores are. The 24 hour Wal-MArt Supercenter closes at 11 (that's progress). Most of the city business, nationwide chains or not close by 9. Finding a fast food place open past 8 is hard.

Thanks, y'all! I had a great time! The pralines, seafood, and especially the hushpuppies were AWESOME!

So, where did you go? I'm about to go to New Orleans for 5 days, and I'm gluten/dairy/soy-free. I'm staying at Canal & Bourbon, and I won't have a car. So - any recommendations? Where did you get reliably gluten-free hush puppies? I'd LOVE some of those! :)

      I certainly agree with all that. However, you also mentioned cornflakes with barley malt but that would obviously not be gluten free since barley is a gluten-containing grain. And the chemicals they spray on grains would affect everyone, not just those with gluten disorders. I'm just trying to figure out what this thread has to do with the main subject this...

      Re food, I said the gluten free thing isn't necessarily about gluten itself, but chemical sprays they use on GRAINS which cause allergic throat & vocal cord issues regardless of the inhaler you're using. Your issue may not be the inhaler but eating gluten free food that still will bother you because they have been sprayed with certain chemicals. Barley...

      There could be other reasons you are reacting to the inhalers. There is no concrete evidence to believe they contain gluten. Anecdotal experiences can be misleading do not establish fact.

      Are you saying you believe there is gluten in the inhaler products? I mean you talk a lot about reacting to foods that are supposed to be gluten free but this thread is about inhalers.

There is another forum re people who are posting they have vocal cord & throat issues after they eat breads & pastas which stopped after they removed those foods from their diets. Same as me...gluten doesn't react as gastrointestinal it reacts orally. Which is why I'm saying ensure all your food isn't what you're having a reaction to.  ...& I used Cornflakes as an example because some gluten free people would assume it's gluten free but if they're allergic to barley they will have a reaction...nothing to do with their inhaler.  You're missing my points a lot & frustrating so I'm done commenting. You really need to ensure your food isn't what's causing the issue. I am checking with symbicort manufacturer to check their ingredients.  Good bye... I'm done with this.

And the chemicals they spray on grains would affect everyone, not just those with gluten disorders. I'm just trying to figure out what this thread has to do with the main subject this online community is focused on. Is the point of this thread that having a gluten disorder makes someone more susceptible to reacting adversely to inhalers? That could be but it may have nothing to do with the inhaler having gluten. It could have to do with, say, having higher systemic yeast counts because the celiac community generally suffers from gut dysbiosis. So it would be easier for celiacs using inhalers to develop thrush.

      Re food,  I said the gluten free thing isn't necessarily about gluten itself, but chemical sprays they use on GRAINS which cause allergic throat & vocal cord issues regardless of the inhaler you're using.  Your issue may not be the inhaler but eating gluten free food that still will bother you because they have been sprayed with certain chemicals. Barley & oats cause vocal and throat issues with me as well as gluten free flours. We didn't have gluten issues in the world yrs ago...the food changed somehow or they're using sprays that cause reactions in some people.  Re inhaler: Symbicort is registered as gluten free but companies can change their ingredients at any time so you may want to check with the company who makes it and get an ingredient list.  I don't believe I'm reacting to the inhaler...I believe it's a gluten free pasta I've been eating so I'm taking it out of my diet. I've used the inhaler for over 1 year and no problems up until now so I suspect it's the pasta.
