and i got on their mailing list to be notified when they start shipping their food, which should happen very soon...i'll keep y'all posted!

thats so awesome that you had a great meal, ive posted the web site on a few posts to get the word out , but i still havnt been there. i am really looking forward to getting there, but with both of my kids in baseball and softball we dont have a free night until july.you say the pizza is good???

hey angie .couple more questions, how is the dress code?? is it nice casual or just casual? and did it seem to be kid friendly. like 9 and 7 year old

angielackner Contributor

the dress code is absolutely casual :) and yes the pizza is wonderful, and there were kids there...if you are going to take a party of more than 4 people though, i would recommend calling ahead as there are only like 12 tables in the place...lol...we had to wait awhile with our party of 9 :blink: but it was sooooooooo worth the wait!

i also had canolli for dessert...OMG was that the sweetest richest tastiest dessert i've ever had! i'd never had a canolli before, but i cant imagine that a gluten filled one could taste any better!

i cant wait to go back and try something else...soooooooo much to choose from on the gluten-free menu...such a treat!

That is a good place to eat and yes, it is totally casual. The mom and pop are delightful and are going to start a mail order business. They will be rich someday. It is interesting to read the book they bring to the table for you to sign...........there are lots of people in there. I wish I had tried the pizza, my granddaughter's favorite. I had the chicken parmesean and that is something I could have made at home, darn. The cream puffs for dessert were very good. It is kind fo expensive, but good.

Be sure to go. Barbara

This place sounds fantastic. I am going to downtown Chicago in December (brr!) and hopefully I can make it there. That is if I am not to stuffed from Nuts on Clark caramel corn.

      Okay, it does make sense to continue the gluten challenge as long as you are already in the middle of it. But what will change if you rule it out? I mean, you have concluded that whatever label you want to give the condition, many of your symptoms improved when you went gluten free. Am I correct in that? According to how I understand your posting, the only symptom that hasn't responded to gluten free eating is the bone demineralization. Did I misunderstand? And if you do test positive, what will you do different than you are doing now? You have already been doing for years the main thing you should be doing and that is eating gluten free. Concerning how long you should stay on the gluten challenge, how many weeks are you into it already?

      I mean that I will be re-taking the celiac blood test again while I am currently on the gluten challenge right now, but not sure how many weeks more to keep going, to ensure a false negative does not happen. Thank you.

      Thank you for your help, I am currently in the middle of the gluten challenge. A bit over 6 weeks in. At 4 weeks I got the celiac blood tests and that is when they were negative. So to rule out the false negative, since I’m in the middle of the gluten challenge right now and will never do this again, I wanted to continue consuming gluten to the point to make sure the blood tests are not a false negative - which I did not receive a firm answer for how many weeks total.    My issue is, with these blood tests the doctors say “you are not celiac” and rule it out completely as a potential cause of my issues, when the symptoms scream of it. I want to rule out this 30 year mystery for my own health since I’m in the middle of it right now. Thank you!

      I am a male and had developed osteopenia by age 50 which is when I finally got dx with celiac disease. I am sure I had it for at least 13 years before that because it was then I developed idiopathic elevated liver enzymes. I now have a little scoliosis and pronounced kyphosis (upper spine curvature).  All of your symptoms scream of celiac disease, even if the testing you have had done does not. You may be an atypical celiac, meaning the disease is not manifesting itself in your gut but is attacking other body systems. There is such a thing as sero negative celiac disease. But you still have not given me a satisfactory answer to my question of why do you need a differential dx between celiac disease and NCGS when either one would call for complete abstinence from gluten, which you have already been practicing except for short periods when you were undergoing a gluten challenge. Why do you want to put a toxic substance into your body for weeks when, even if it did produce a positive test result for celiac disease, neither you or your doctors would do anything different? Regardless of what doctors are recommending to you, it is your body it is affecting not theirs and they don't seem to have given you any good justification for starting another gluten challenge. Where you live, are doctors kings or something?

      Sorry to put it clearly, at 15, infertility started (tried to word it nicely) meaning menstruation stopped. Which is in correlation to celiac I mean. Thank you.
