Just curious if anyone has a list of gluten-free restaurants in Durham and/or Raleigh that they could post. I am familiar w/ the bigger chain restaurants (i.e. PF Chang's, Outback, Carraba's, Pei Wei, etc.) but I am trying to locate some other options.

I've come across the following but have not tried or called about either yet, so if anyone knows anything about either, please share your experience:

Mellow Mushroom in Durham is now serving 100% gluten-free wings??

Jibarra is a more upscale mexican/tequila lounge bar offering gluten-free food??

Hello from Raleighwood!

I have not gone to the Mellow Mushroom in quite some time... if they don't have gluten-free pizza I'm not so interested.

I have, however, been to Jibarra a time or two. They don't necessarily have a gluten free menu, but if you ask about it, your server will likely go and ask the chef. That's what they did for me. And they make just about everything there, so it's pretty easy for him to know. There was something he told me not to get b/c they didn't make it there and he couldn't say for sure. (was some sort of cheese) So, I would imagine that he could prepare something differently if necessary.

It is NOT your typical mexican restaurant. It's Oaxacan fine dining. So, if you go, it is fantastic. But be prepared to spend a few bucks. I think it's worth it though. And their drinks are FAB!

I also like to go to Neomonde. It's a Lebanese/Mediterranean restaurant. They have an assortment of salads and stuff, and some hot foods. Most of the stuff is freshly made (like made that morning). There's one off Hillsborough St and one out in Morrisville off of Hwy 54. I eat pretty well there and haven't gotten sick.

Hi,

Check out solas in Raleigh, on Sth Glenwood. We were there this week for a gluten free wine dinner. The food was awesome, the wine was delicious, and the folks there did such a nice job. Cliff Vogelsberg the executive chef really takes care if you let him know you are celiac.

Can't rave enough about it. I think everyone should know about another option for gluten free, fine dining in the triangle.

regards

Noreen

At the Celiac Support group in Raleigh this past week, two reps from Bella Monica Restaurant came and brought samples of their gluten free food. They were wonderful and are very interested in expanding their line of gluten free foods. And, they asked a lot of questions about which pastas they should use and what gluten-free items the members would like to see on the menu. It was wonderful to hear that they wanted to have patrons who can not consume gluten come into their business and feel comfortable eating what they've prepared.

Here is a link to their site ... Open Original Shared Link

My family is planning to check the restaurant out in the next week or two!

      Anyone Here Sensitive To Fillers Such As Cellulose?

      By CelluloseSick · Posted

      Thanks Scott. its been a tough journey. i haven’t been able to take any painkillers for pain, because they all contain some form of cellulose. I’m finally working with a compounding pharmacist to get compounded Ibuprofen w/o cellulose filler … I’ll let you know how that works out. when I tell doctors about my problems with cellulose and medications, sadly they really don’t understand the magnitude of the problem. My reason for responding to the original post was to let others know they’re not crazy - and there’s such a thing as cellulose intolerance. Thank you so much for your response.

      Hello @CelluloseSick, it sounds like you’ve been through a really challenging journey trying to pinpoint and avoid cellulose fillers in medications. Severe migraines and liquid diarrhea, especially with Ulcerative Colitis, must make this an incredibly difficult issue to manage. It’s frustrating how hidden these ingredients can be, and it definitely takes a lot of detective work to connect the dots. While true cellulose allergies or intolerances don’t seem to be well-documented, some people do report digestive issues, headaches, or other symptoms when exposed to cellulose-based fillers. Unfortunately, there isn’t a clear statistic on what percentage of the population suffers from this, but anecdotal evidence suggests that you are not alone. Have you found any specific resources or medical professionals who acknowledge this issue? It’s great that you’ve been able to find compounded medications with sucrose fillers—hopefully, that continues to work for you!

      Btw, I recently switched from Compounded T3/T4 ( which had cellulose in it, unbeknown to me) and was making me sick to a brand called NP Thyroid. No cellulose filler

      So happy to have found this Post. ive been struggling with cellulose fillers in meds for years. When I found out, I looked for meds that do not contain cellulose filler or have had to get compounded meds made with sucrose filler. My reactions are:  severe migraines and liquid diarrhea ( not fun when you suffer from Ulcerative Colitis). not sure what percentage of the population suffer from such allergy. you'd have to be a pretty good sleuth to find this and make the connections. Bravo for you!   anyone know what percentage of population suffers from cellulose intolerance? thanks?

      If you replace the gluten products you normally ate with gluten-free versions, and I mean the breads, be careful, as many gluten-free products can be high in calories and low in nutrients (high carb).
