Semolina's Pasta

I just got back from a divine dinner date at Semolina's, where I ate gluten free, without any trouble whatsoever.

The Rice Sticks pasta is gluten free, according to the company, and I had the best dinner. You can sub it for the pasta in any other dish, and they will go to any lengths to ensure that you do not get cross contaminated food.

The Rice Sticks pasta is not gooey or too hard, and actually picks up the flavors of your dish better than a semolina pasta. The dish it is in on the menu is Pad Thai. They use peanuts, soy products, rice, & seafood in this dish. The sauce is a sesame-ginger-lime vinaigrette, tossed with bean sprouts, shiitake mushrooms, peanuts, grilled tofu, and of course, Rice Sticks. Bring your own gluten-free soy sauce, salad dressings, and bread. The company gladly heats your bread in a convection oven, wrapped in foil or your provided oven-safe container.

Currently, there are no gluten free appetizers or desserts. If you bring your own bread, the appetizer issue is self-solved, as the appetizers are all dips of some denomination. Ask for the bread to be left out, and eat the sauce with your own for a great starter. Desserts are all gluten-laden, and must be avoided. The bar stocks several great liquors and can mix up a gluten free sweet treat for the over-21 crowd, or virgin versions for those who wish for a treat without the alcohol. Where our local Semolina's is located, it is better to go next door for a sundae or upstairs to catch the latest release in the theater with your date. Either way, Semolina's is a perfect meal for a nice night out.

You do not need to call ahead to eat safely at Semolina's, but do let your server and the chef know that you have Celiac/wheat intolerance. The manager on duty will always make the rounds, so please be sure to thank them for a great job serving our community.

Prices vary, but expect to pay about $15-20 per person. Gratuity is added for groups of 6 or more, and reservations are recommended for large groups. Locations span southeastern Louisiana.

Thanks to Semolina's Adventures in Pasta at 4436 Veterans Memorial Blvd, Metairie, Lousiana for te great service and info.

      EMA Result

      Welcome to the celiac.com community, @mike101020! First, what was the reference range for the ttg-iga blood test? Can't tell much from the raw score you gave because different labs use different reference ranges. Second, there are some non celiac medical conditions, some medications and even some non-gluten food proteins that can cause elevated...

      Hi, I recently was informed by my doctor that I had scored 9.8 on my ttgl blood test and a follow up EMA test was positive. I am no waiting for a biopsy but have read online that if your EMA is positive then that pretty much confirms celiac. However is this actually true because if it it is what is the point of the biopsy? Thanks for...

      Welcome to the celiac.com community, @mike101020! First, what was the reference range for the ttg-iga blood test? Can't tell much from the raw score you gave because different labs use different reference ranges. Second, there are some non celiac medical conditions, some medications and even some non-gluten food proteins that can cause elevated celiac blood antibodies in some individuals. The most likely explanation is celiac disease but it is not quite a slam dunk. The endoscopy/biopsy is considered the gold standard for celiac disease diagnosis and serves as confirmation of elevated blood antibody levels from the blood testing.

      Hey there, have you been tested for allergies? You may not only have celiac disease but be allergic. I have celiac disease and am allergic to Barley, wheat and rye.
