:rolleyes: A new ALL GLUTEN-FREE restaurant opened ten minutes from my house! It is located at Central Expressway and Parker Road in Plano, Texas. (Plano is in the north-east corner of the Dallas area.) The restaurant is called Laura's Bistro. I had the California club sandwich and chips. The gluten-free bread was awesome. I went back with the kids. We had fried shrimp, French fries, and fettuccini. Everything was wonderful. Check out the website at www.delicious-n-fit.com. She has baked things too -- cake, pie, cupcakes. We didn't try any because we were stuffed, but we will be back weekly!

It was Delicious n Fit when it was on Parker road. Laura just moved locations next to the Pancake house on 75 the name changed to Laura's Bistro. I haven't been to the new location yet, but we went to the old location on a regular basis. She always bakes my birthday cakes every year and I buy graham crackers in bulk during the holidays for pie crusts. The entire staff is also good with additional intolerances.

I love to encourage all Celiacs in DFW to support her business. She is also very kind on top of a great cook.

It is so sad, Laura's has closed....I never got to go. I think it is really messed up that in the DFW metroplex there was really only Laura's that was completely gluten free. I have found Sublime Bakery in Fort Worth that does make some gluten free items daily, but you have to either call ahead or get there early to get anything.

I am sad, as well, that Laura's has closed. But I don't believe she's down for the count.

She's still offering baked goods on a special order basis, and I truly believe if she can find a way to come back, she will.

A case of very bad timing. I recently bought a $50 coupon for Laura's Bistro for $25 through an offering linked to our local gluten-free group. Was so excited Saturday before last on the way there, only to find it closed.

Damn the bad luck!

best regards, lm

Larry, email Laura and see if she'll honor that coupon in some way. She's still doing 'special order' type baking, just not running the actual bistro anymore.

That is such a bummer they closed down!!!! I went there once with both my daughters - we loved our meal!!! It was a good hour drive though - so not somewhere I could go frequently. I was just telling my co-worker that I wanted to go back.

:(

      Simple Mills and Made Good Foods Products May Contain Gluten Levels Above the FDA's Allowable Limit of 20 ppm

      I recently purchased Simple Mills crunchy almond flour chocolate chip cookies and chocolate chocolate chip cookies and had reactions to both. I learned of my gluten sensitivity 3 1/2 months ago and struggled with finding gluten-free foods but, with my husbands help, I have felt better than I have in many years. After eating these cookies my symptoms returned...

      Pain in the right side of abdomen

      @Heatherisle, You have good reason to worry. Ask the doctors to do an Erythrocyte Transketolace Activity Assay to test for Thiamine B1 deficiency. Thiamine deficiency is frequently found in B12 deficiency. Deficiencies in all the B vitamins are common with malabsorption due to Celiac disease. Thiamine can run out in as little as three days...

      @Heatherisle, You have good reason to worry.   Ask the doctors to do an Erythrocyte Transketolace Activity Assay to test for Thiamine B1 deficiency.  Thiamine deficiency is frequently found in B12 deficiency.  Deficiencies in all the B vitamins are common with malabsorption due to Celiac disease.  Thiamine can run out in as little as three days.   Thiamine deficiency symptoms can be mistaken for other diseases such as MS and Guillian-Barre Syndrome.  Thiamine deficiency symptoms include pain in legs and abdominal pain as well as depression and gastrointestinal symptoms. Thiamine B1, Pyridoxine B6 and Cobalamine B 12 together relieve nerve pain.

      Just an update on my daughter. She is still in hospital and getting quite depressed about everything. She had a CT scan of head and chest to rule out stroke in view of her symptoms. Thankfully there is no evidence of that so they now want to do an MRI to rule out MS so this is freaking her out and it’s not doing me much good either!!!They’re also going to do further blood tests to check vitamin levels. My husband and I are trying to reassure her the best we can that hopefully it’s just her body’s reaction to having the Vitamin B medication and it’s affecting her nervous system etc. Think the tingling has subsided but still having some lower back and pelvic pain and some leg pain. Thanks for reading and my apologies if I sound paranoid.
