We just got back from the Gluten-Free Summit in Providence, and I wanted to share the restaurants we dined at while in Rhode Island and Massachusetts. The Summit was phenomenal, and we enjoyed all of the chefs cooking and baking for us!

The Grille on Main - 50 Main Street, East Greenwich, RI - undeniably the most incredible restaurant we have dined at since being diagnosed! We would eat at this restaurant every night for a week if we didn't live in California!. Chef Russell and the Eric the manager treated us like royalty! We had the absolute best pizza we have ever eaten (including gluten pizza), buffalo wings, sweet potato fries, shrimp & chicken stir fry, scallops with fried goat cheese and apple chutney, a huge peanut butter cookie sandwich with vanilla ice cream in the middle and creme brulee. Our party left very full and satisfied after this delicious meal!

Smokey Bones - 31B Universal Blvd., Warwick, RI - great Gluten-free BBQ menu! We had BBQ ribs and loaded mashed potatoes!

Pei Wei - 4 Chapel View Blvd., Cranston, RI - sweet and sour chicken with rice! Yum! There are no Pei Wei's yet in Northern California yet.

Rancho Chico - 52 Washington Street, Plainville, MA - the most delicious Mexican food we have eaten since being diagnosed. We had nachos, fajitas and enchiladas. Even the tortilla chips were Gluten-free!

Burton's Grill - 1363 Boylston Street, Boston, MA - salmon with baked potato and broccoli, roasted chicken on a carrot and green bean risotto and warm chocolate torte.

Boynton Pizza - 117 Highland Street, Worcester, MA - their pizza was absolutely delicious because their crust was crisp on the bottom, very cheesy and a little bit of grease that we miss so much on our pizzas. We actually drove down from Boston the next day to enjoy their pizza again for lunch! They also had a Gluten-free chocolate mousse cake "to die for!"

Four Seasons Hotel (The Bristol) - 200 Boylston Street, Boston, MA - Chef Angel at The Bristol made us Gluten-free french toast, blueberry muffins and Gluten-free almond currant scones! Just give the chefs some notice and they will make you anything - even Gluten-free pancakes!

The only restaurant we did not get to was Alice's Diner at 2663 S Main Street, Fall River, MA. We were so full from a great dinner the night before, we just could not eat breakfast that morning! Alice's has a Gluten-free menu for breakfast and lunch.

Enjoy!

Sue

Although I did not attend the gluten-free Summit, I have been to many of the restaurants you have mentioned here as I live in Massachusetts and I dine out with a dining group from R.I. You are correct, these places are excellent and well worth a visit. It's a really good place to live, as far as being gluten-free! :D

I took my DD to the Boynton Restaurant today for pizza and found out that they put Wheat Starch in it. There is a disclaimer at the bottom of the gluten-free menu stating that they use small amounts of wheat starch in the pizza, and yet they are certifying it as gluten free. The waitress even told us about it before taking our order to be sure we saw it. How can this be? Don't celiacs have to avoid wheat starch? Needless to say, we left the restaurant and ate elsewhere.

I would like to add to the great list for eating gluten-free in RI.

Providence: Kabob and Curry Restaurant, Waterplace Restaurant (a Pinelli Mara restaurant... all their restaurants have gluten-free menus, even though they are not on line), Pizzaria Unos, Red Stripe in Wayland Square (has gluten-free french fries and Redbridge Beer, all their food is fab and even a manager is gluten-free herself), Apsara Thai Food on Hope Street.

Pawtucket: Rasoi Indian Restaurant (same owner as Kabob and Curry, but much better atmosphere). Great menu with all items marked as to gluten free, vegan, spicy, etc.

Newport: Tucker's Bistro.... loved this place as a really nice night out. gluten-free bread on the table, every item on the regular menu is available gluten-free (except a few desserts). We ate four courses and loved them all.

Narragansett: Blue Wave Pizza Call ahead b/c gluten-free crust takes one hour. Owner makes each one to order from scratch. yummy!!!

If you're in the city, Nice Slice on Thayer St. (providence) has gluten free pizza! I recommend anything with BBQ sauce! I can't get enough of it!!

      I’m terrified it’s too late for me😭

      By cristiana · Posted

      Hello @Cathijean90 Firstly, welcome to the forum, you have come to the right place! I know this is much easier to say than to do, but try not to worry.  Whilst it is awful on so many levels that you have only just found out that Coeliac Disease is the issue behind all your problems, when you could have known 15 years ago, as Trents has said, it is really not at all uncommon for people to have symptoms for years before the doctors know what they are dealing with.  I was worried, too, that I'd never get better when I was first diagnosed.  My nutritionist said it wasn't too late and I didn't believe her!  But you know what -  I am feeling so much better now.  I've known of people living near me who were diagnosed in their 70s and 80s and have bounced back, and my consultant has even diagnosed someone in their 90s!  So being diagnosed older is something that also happens a lot. I am now in my 50s but my first symptoms, looking back, probably started with bouts of diarrhea in my teens and terrible nauseating migraines in my 20s, with a mouth full of ulcers twice in my 30s, aura migraines starting with my first pregnancy at 34, hallucinations with both pregnancies and a pre-term baby with my second pregnancy.  Weird liver function tests suggestive and iron deficiency, which sent me into a spin because my GP said it might be a type of cancer, then blood in my stools and clinical anxiety in the months prior to my diagnosis.    Wow - what gluten can do to someone!  But now, apart from a few minor issues with aura migraines, these issues have gone away.  It has been so worth giving up gluten, people say I have good self-control but frankly, and I am sure you feel the same, knowing how sick gluten can make us, I'm not remotely interested in eating gluten ever again! I've recently discovered my GP didn't tell me my cholesterol is creeping up when he tested me three years ago.  If I had known I'd have started being much more careful with my diet.  I dread to think what my cholesterol levels are now,  I'll have to do a test sooner or later but I do need to try to do something about it now.  So I do relate with your situation. To have not had the diagnosis passed onto you is awful.  But the good news is you do know now.   Also, you will be taking your diet seriously, which will give you the best chance of a good recovery.   Kick gluten out of your diet, get your doctor to run some tests to see if you have any vitamin deficiencies, and address those, and also see if you have any thyroid issues which occasionally affect coeliacs and can be easily treated.   Build your strength up with the best whole food you can manage, and try to take one day at at time.  On having children:  my friend had a series of miscarriages before she was diagnosed with coeliac disease, and then when she started a gluten free diet, no more - she carried two more pregnancies to term.   I am so glad you have a faith, my Christian faith has been a huge help to me on my journey.   Two  books on anxiety and depression too, helped, if you feel you are struggling with either or both.  The Depression Cure: The Six-Step Programme to Beat Depression Without Drugs, by Dr Steve Llardi, and At Last a Life by Paul David.  Both available online. Come back to us if you have any more questions.  You are not alone. Cristiana

      What should I do with these test results?

      Thank you for your answer. I read it here: https://www.beyondceliac.org/celiac-disease/non-celiac-gluten-sensitivity/ With the title "What’s the Difference Between Gluten Sensitivity and Celiac Disease?"

      For me I gave up oat products and it finally cleared. I had a whole body reaction for months. Two additional culprits for me: shared grill at a restaurant or a shared toaster.  Hope you have relief soon.

      It can take between 6 months and 2 years for the dermatitis herpetiformis rash to resolve. The symptoms of dermatitis herpetiformis arise from deposits of certain antibodies building up in the skin. These deposits attract immune cells leading to inflammation and blistering. It can take 10 years for the deposits to be reabsorbed although symptoms resolve long before this.
