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.

      My journey is it gluten or fiber?

      By xxnonamexx · Posted

      sorry a bit confused so I should take my B complex along with Objective Nutrients Thiamax for TTFD but what about a Benfotiamine to take. The Life extensions contains Benfotiamine and Thiamine together or im confusing myself. I am trying to see if I take Thiamax what should I take for Benfotiamine. Thanks EDITING after further research I see ones water soluble ones fat soluble. So I guess 100MG as you suggested of Life Extension contains Benfotiamine and Thiamine Hydrochloride. and the Objective Nutrients Thiamax contains TTFD.     would work for me.

      Build muscle back feeling weak?

      By Rogol72 · Posted

      I put on over 12kg by eating protein with every meal, 3 to 5 times a day. Eggs, Chicken, Tuna, Turkey etc. I stay away from too much red meat as it can be inflammatory. Scott is correct. I've come across a bunch of Coeliac PT's on Tiktok and Instagram. They all say the same thing, the key is getting enough protein and consistency.

      Build muscle back feeling weak?

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      It's great to hear that eliminating gluten has helped alleviate symptoms like eye burning, which is a significant and positive change. The first and most important step is to ensure you're consuming enough protein throughout the day to support muscle repair and growth, which can be challenging with a busy schedule. Since you're already physically active at work, adding focused strength training just 2-3 times per week can make a major difference. Bodyweight exercises like squats, push-ups (modified if needed), and lunges, or using resistance bands at home, are excellent, efficient places to start. Remember, consistency with these short sessions and prioritizing post-workout recovery, including good sleep and hydration, are just as crucial as the workouts themselves. It's a smart, gradual process at any age.
