Great Find In Toronto

For those of you in Toronto or visiting, Big Mamma's Boy on Parliamant St. downtown is a great find.

Everything on the menu can be prepared gluten free except for the spring rolls. A lot of the items are only made gluten free. There's pizza, pasta, gluten-free breaded chicken... and more! They had 3 choices for dessert the night we were there. They also do a gluten-free brunch on Sunday.

The food was great... so was the service. I would recommend reservations (it's a little small.)

THANK YOU! Thank you so much.

We're taking a holiday to Toronto very soon. We'll have to make a point of finding this place.

Thank you!

I'm sure you'll love visiting Toronto - I love living here.

There's a few places that are really great...

Swiss Chalet is a popular restaurant here. It's a little fast foodish but with sit down service. They have a nutrition guide that lists everything on the menu and what allergens are in it. The chicken, potatoes and corn are all safe. So is the sauce which is almost like a gravy.

Il Fornello's is a nicer restaurant - it's Italian and they have gluten-free pasta and pizza.

The Outback is also a good option. (They have a gluten-free menu and an amazing gluten-free dessert!)

Most grocery stores here have some gluten-free options. But, a great one is the Big Carrot on the Danforth. They have a really good selection.

Enjoy your visit!

      @Scott Adams Thank you so much for this thoughtful and encouraging reply 💛 It really helps me feel less alone navigating all of this! I’ve definitely been strict gluten-free, but I’ll admit — in the beginning, I honestly knew nothing about cross-contamination 😅 so it’s very possible my gut is still healing from that. I feel very abnormal because I am not a typical celiac or a typical Crohn's, so it makes me feel very stuck.

      Hi still the same unfortunately, they had to cancel my colonoscopy due to my trapped nerve , I'm awaiting some kind of scan , it was the nurses who  told me to refuse and asked a docter , and I was told to cancel and go back to my consultant , I think because my sciatic nerve is compressed between my herniated discs , the prep was enough I could handle , but the colonoscopy itself , they advised me to seek something different ,due to the position I had to be in and the movements , so I will update Wen I know more , thankyou for asking appreciated 🤗

      It sounds like you're navigating a complex situation with your celiac disease, and it’s understandable to feel confused by the GI world! While celiac disease typically affects the duodenum and proximal small intestine, it’s possible for inflammation to extend to the ileum, especially in cases of more severe or longstanding damage. Since your tTG-IgA remains elevated despite a strict gluten-free diet, this could indicate ongoing healing or subtle gluten exposure. The ileal inflammation might still be related to celiac, though it’s good your doctor is ruling out other conditions like Crohn’s, given the nonspecific biopsy findings. Some people with celiac do report ileal involvement, particularly if they have refractory disease or delayed healing. Keeping close follow-up with your GI and possibly revisiting your diet for hidden gluten sources could help. Hang in there—it’s a journey, and you’re doing great by staying proactive!
