: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.

:(

      Terrible Neurological Symptoms

      I’m really sorry you’re dealing with this—chronic neuropathic or nociplastic pain can be incredibly frustrating, especially when testing shows no nerve damage. It’s important to clarify for readers that this type of central sensitization pain is not the same thing as ongoing gluten exposure, particularly when labs, biopsy, and nutritional status are normal....

      Reverse Osmosis (RO) Water

      There is no credible scientific evidence that standard water filters contain gluten or pose a gluten exposure risk. Gluten is a food protein from wheat, barley, or rye—it is not used in activated carbon filtration in any meaningful way, and refrigerator or pitcher filters are not designed with food-based binders that would leach gluten into water.

      Water filters are a potential problem for Celiac Disease

      Bottled water, filtered water, distilled water, and products like Gatorade are naturally gluten-free and do not contain gluten unless contaminated during manufacturing, which would be highly unlikely and subject to labeling laws. Gluten is a protein from wheat, barley, or rye—it is not present in water, minerals, plastics, phosphates, bicarbonate, or electrolytes. ...

      Water filters are a potential problem for Celiac Disease

      Water does not contain gluten--bottled water included. This is an official warning that you'll receive a warning if you continue to push this idea. Gatorade is naturally gluten-free as well, and it's purified water does not include gluten. You can see all sort of junk on the Internet--that does not mean it is true.

      Terrible Neurological Symptoms

      An interesting note (though not something that I recommend) is that in the last couple of winters before this one, I drank tons of alcohol because I found it reveresed the pain substantially. It seemed it muted it, then I stopped worrying about it, and so on, so that it was reversing the sensitization cycle. I mean, strong alcohol. Not a few beers. Talking...

      Terrible Neurological Symptoms

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      I’m really sorry you’re dealing with this—chronic neuropathic or nociplastic pain can be incredibly frustrating, especially when testing shows no nerve damage. It’s important to clarify for readers that this type of central sensitization pain is not the same thing as ongoing gluten exposure, particularly when labs, biopsy, and nutritional status are normal. A stocking/glove pattern with normal nerve density points toward a pain-processing disorder rather than active celiac-related injury. Alcohol temporarily dampening symptoms likely reflects its central nervous system depressant effects, not treatment of an underlying gluten issue—and high-dose alcohol is dangerous and not a safe or sustainable strategy. Seeing a pain specialist is absolutely the right next step, and we encourage members to work closely with neurology and pain management rather than assuming hidden gluten exposure when objective testing does not support it.

      There is no credible scientific evidence that standard water filters contain gluten or pose a gluten exposure risk. Gluten is a food protein from wheat, barley, or rye—it is not used in activated carbon filtration in any meaningful way, and refrigerator or pitcher filters are not designed with food-based binders that would leach gluten into water. AI-generated search summaries are not authoritative sources, and they often speculate without documentation. Major manufacturers design filters for water purification, not food processing, and gluten contamination from a water filter would be extraordinarily unlikely. For people with celiac disease, properly functioning municipal, bottled, filtered, or distilled water is considered gluten-free.

Gluten is a protein from wheat, barley, or rye—it is not present in water, minerals, plastics, phosphates, bicarbonate, or electrolytes. Refrigerator filters and reverse osmosis systems are not sources of gluten, and there is no credible scientific evidence that distilled or purified water triggers celiac reactions. If someone experiences symptoms after drinking a specific product, it is far more likely due to individual sensitivities, anxiety around exposure, or unrelated health factors—not gluten in water.

It seemed it muted it, then I stopped worrying about it, and so on, so that it was reversing the sensitization cycle. I mean, strong alcohol. Not a few beers. Talking 25% ABV stuff and well beyond any limit anyone has ever seen. Yes, bad for other reasons. But it was interesting, that even after stopping the alcohol (which I could do overnight, for some reason I don't get dependent) the nerve pain would stay "low" for a while, but then gradually ramp up again to where it was before. Obviously, that's not a long term solution as my liver would probably shrivel up and I'd go broke. So the pain clinic hopefully finds a better way to desensitize the condition.
