Tangerine In Philly

Went to Tangerine a few weeks back.

They were SO helpful! Made a note on the reservation, so the server approached me instead of me having to go through the whole explanation.

She went through the menu with me, made at least 6 runs to the kitchen to double check ingredients for me, and my meal was WONDERFUL!

Now, Tangerine is not cheap, but the "feel" of the restaurant rocks and the food was unbelievable.

Maybe a good possibility for Valentines Day if you're within driving distance of Philadelphia. :)

I had a scallops appetizer that was just incredible. I really dislike seafood, but these were amazing. Each scallop was served over some potato.

I had lamb for my entree and it was very very good and filling.

For dessert, I had a Banana Creme Brulee -- the bananas were on top of the creme brulee, but under the sugar - WOW!

I highly recommend you check it out for a special occassion!

Glad to hear you had a good trip out. Sounds like a great place. I am 2 hrs from Philly but every now and again we do pass by.

PS-I love Creme Brulee. You would not believe how many of those I buy when I go to the Wegmans.

      Possible (Non)-celiac gluten sensitivity(?)

      By green-blossom · Posted

      Hi everyone, I am new here, and have some questions. I recently discovered that ~15 minutes after eating durum wheat semolina pasta, I get a strange feeling in my stomach area. I have been struggling with stomach aches, bloating and difficulty with bowel movements etc for about 10 years now (im in my mid twenties.) I have tried a lot to fix this, apart from adjusting my diet. Unfortunately I can't cook and mostly eat pasta, pizza, burgers and so on. I tried a lot of other things to fix it, like working out, yoga, meditation and so on. It helps a bit, although I never really felt relaxed in my stomach area, which caused a lot of problems in everyday life. I tried going gluten free for one day. Everything I normally eat, but gluten-free. And I felt much better all day and had no problems with stomach aches or bloating. Now my question is: Could this be a case of celiac disease in my case? (I only 'suffer' from digestive symptoms) ... and is it possible to develop this during 'puberty' or at other stages of life in general? No one in my family has coeliac condition. I didn't have the problem until I was 15. When I was 20, a lot of bad things happened and I was very unhappy and also had IBS symptoms due to extreme stress. Should I see a doctor and is it safe to switch to a gluten-free diet for now?  Thank you.

      Celiac Maybe a Possibility?

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      The only issue with that approach, is that some restaurants may not want to serve you--if you say you get violently ill, or have a deadly allergy, etc.--remember, at least here in California, businesses can decline to serve you.

      @llisa, have you also been diagnosed with celiac disease? You don't actually say but we have assumed that.

      Gluten free vitamins

      By llisa · Posted

      I had bariatric surgery in 2018. My doctor put me on multiple vitamins, D3, and calcium (in the form of 2 Tums daily). My endocrinologist monitors my levels of these things, as well as my diabetes and Hashimoto's.

      Yes, I have concerns about the calcium supplementation as well. Sounds like a good idea on the surface if you are trying to address bone density issues but when overdone it can have the opposite effect. Calcium supplementation increases gut PH (i.e., lowers gut acidity) which can interfere with vitamin and mineral (including calcium itself) absorption. Often, bone demineralization is not due to lack of calcium intake but to low gut acidity. This is why you will often see calcium supplement products paired with vitamin C (ascorbic acid). Drinking OJ or tomato juice along with the calcium supplement can help with this as they are acidic juices. Calcium supplementation can also contribute to plaque arterial buildup I believe. I think it might be best to focus on rich natural sources of calcium.
