I am trying to find a safe Mexican place to eat at. My anniversary is coming up and I would love to eat somewhere that is safe but not Outback. I am in Eastern NC and am looking for somewhere more in the Wilmington or even Raleigh area. We are also going to Costco that weekend!

Also have you eaten at Carrabba's? I know they have a gluten free menu but how is the gluten free food and service?

On The Border has a gluten-free menu but their CC statement isn't the best: Open Original Shared Link. I think Don Pablo's also has a gluten free menu.

If you can post your location I'm sure someone can come up with a local option.

Depends how much you want to spend, but there is an exceptional "fine dining" Mexican restaurant here in Raleigh called Jibarra. They don't have a gluten free menu, but the chef is very up and up on what's gluten-free or not as pretty much everything is made in his kitchen.

It's different from what most people's expectation of mexican is though. Their website is jibarra.net. They used to have a menu posted, so check it out before you decide to go there. But my husband and I went there last year for our anniversary and we loved it. They have just moved, though, from N Raleigh to the downtown area. I'm not sure if they've reopened, but depending on when you plan to celebrate, it's worth a shot anyway.

SAHM, I know there is a Carrabba's in Wilmington. I have had many great experiences there. And save room for a wonderful desert.

Most nice restaurants could broil some seafood for you as request.

I'm from NY, but I actually ate at the Carrabbas in the Raleigh area just last week. I was down visiting my sister. The waiter I had was very accommodating and I had no problems. The food was delicious. Enjoy!

      I haven’t been diagnosed formally. My doctor always called it eczema but over the years I have figured out it isn’t.  I’ll do some research on iodine. Thanks for that info.

      I would not think abstaining from commercially processed food would have any effect on dermatitis herpetiformis. What can help with dermatitis herpetiformis is reducing iodine in your diet and, of course, you must completely abstain from gluten.  Many who suffer from dermatitis herpetiformis cannot find relief until they get on a med called Dapsone. It seems to be pretty effective but stresses the liver. So, anyone taking it must have their liver enzymes monitored regularly. By the way, celiac disease is the only know cause for dermatitis herpetiformis. Has your rash been officially diagnosed as dermatitis herpetiformis? It can be a challenge to find a dermatologist who knows how to properly biopsy dermatitis herpetiformis when seeking a diagnosis.

      I was eating gluten at the time it was done. I do not eat commercially processed food and we make it all from scratch so I wonder if that might cause an issue.

      When you had the blood draw done for the antibody testing, had you already been practicing a gluten free diet? If so, that would also sabotage the results of the tTG-IGA.

      The rash on my hands is the little blisters or  dermatitisherpetiformi you are referencing. They itch like crazy and no doctor has ever been able to get them to go away. When I remove gluten from my diet they go away. I decided to do the test for that reason. It’s really my only symptom but my sister has celiac disease and the same hand rash. her doctor recommended I get tested.
