Where I Ate & Stayed In Waikiki/honolulu

Just got back from Honolulu. I stayed at the Marriott's Waikiki hotel, and one of their restaurants' chef, Chef Miles, made me Gluten-free pancakes in the morning for breakfast from my own Gluten-free pancake mix I brought with me (no extra charge!). That was so great to enjoy pancakes along with the breakfast buffet in the morning! I realize some people may not want to risk cross-contact in the buffet line, but I had no problems sticking with the bacon (the bacon was not sitting on bread), fruit, yogurt and fresh scrambled eggs.

We ate at Cheeseburgerland (Cheeseburger in Paradise) and ordered a mushroom avocado cheeseburger w/o bun (we toasted our own hamburger buns at the hotel (yes, we brought our own toaster to Hawaii!) and brought the buns to the restaurant). They were delicious! No fries, but their macadamia nut coleslaw was Gluten-free (given the ingredients they gave me), and we had no problems afterward.

The best meal was at the Yard House in Waikiki. They have a Gluten-free menu. We started with their Spinach Cheese Dip w/ no bread (we brought our own tortilla chips) - absolutely "to die for." I think ordered a BBQ chicken salad and my daughter ordered their turkey club sandwich w/o bread off their Gluten-free menu (she brought her own bun). Again, a great meal.

Hope this helps anyone traveling to Waikiki!

I am glad you had a great experience. One of our members here has worked to educate chefs in Hawaii and around the world about the gluten free diet.

My wife and I were in Waikiki/Honolulu in February. Two of the places we ate were P F Chang and Ruth's Chris Steak House. P F Chang has a good gluten-free menu and the staff was very accommodating. In fact, we ate there several times. Good food, if you like Chinese cuisine. Ruth's Chris didn't have a gluten-free menu per se, but we were told to just discuss it with the waiter. Everything was great, including a piece of flourless chocolate cake for dessert. I believe both are on Beach Walk St. Ruth's Chris is on the level above the Yard House.

      Skinesa

      By Wheatwacked · Posted

      In what way? Skinese:  You paid for it, might as well try.  They are the usual mix and is gluten free. "Free of milk/casein, eggs, fish, shellfish, tree nuts, peanuts, wheat, gluten, and soybeans. Contains no artificial colors, flavors, or preservatives."   Are you using whole milk yogurt or the no fat yogurt.  The no fat has varius ingrediEnts to mimic fats texture but some people react to the  gums used.   Sibo: Foods that do not contain carbohydrates or fiber do not usually cause problems. This includes meats (beef, pork, lamb, venison); poultry (chicken, turkey, duck); fish and shellfish; eggs; and butter, oils, and hard cheeses. Stonyfield Whole milk yogert, I think, is the only one with lactase for lactose intolerance.  Naturally Fermented Pickles [The Complete Guide] For your skin health you need dietary iodine intake around 500 to 1000 micrograms a day.  I take Liquid Iodine 500 mcg a day.  It is the amount I ate daily in the 1960/s before they stopped using it in bread.  Since 1970 the daily intake of iodine has decrease 50%.  50 mcg/drop in the brand I use.  The dose used to prove Wolff-Chaikoff Effect was upwards of 11 grams The USDA lists the safe range from 125 mcg to 1000 mcg (1 gram).  Japanese say 3000 mcg is safe.  Look at tradition japanese hair, skin, and their childrens intellegence.  They must be doing something more right than us.

      FASANO DIET - not Dasani. For some reason, it is not allowing me to edit my post.

      Yes, she should be eating lots of gluten daily...4 slices of wheat bread would be ideal for the screenings.

      Antibodies went up

      By Barcino · Posted

      Hello,  I cant get my daughter's TTG IGA antibodies to drop into the normal range. A bit of the backstory : both my kids were diagnosed in July of 2023. Both were >250 at diagnosis.  My son went from >250 July 2023  to 33 Nov 2023  to 15.7 July 2024. With <15 being negative. He is almost there.  My daughter went >250 July 2023 to 66.3 Dec 2023 to 31.7 July 2024 to now back up to 35.6.  We are a fully gluten free house and we do not eat out AT ALL in any restaurants other than one dedicated gluten-free bakery. We don't eat any oats. She takes anti epileptic drugs / vitamins so we are double checking all medications and supplements. One medication says they should be gluten free but cant guarantee excipients aren't contaminated so we will be changing that one to a different manufacturer.   Feeling a little worried that her levels are worse and we cant get her into the normal range. We are thinking about cutting dairy or doing the Dasani diet. She doesnt eat a crazy amount of processed food and what she has in gluten free certified and not made in shared lines but maybe we should cut it all out until her levels drop? Any other advice? We will check all personal products also, but we believe everything is gluten free. My son is away at school so trying to figure out what she does and eats that he doesnt. Chickpeas (canned), dairy (he doesnt eat much dairy due to acne) and of course her medications.   Thank you for any input you may have.

      She finally has her appointment today. They said in their opinion it’s likely celiac. But repeated the bloodwork today. Her frost bloodwork was weak positive 5.3 (4-10 is a weak positive) Dr wanted her own labs. And they will be calling us to schedule the endoscopy.  They told her to keep Eating gluten. She has been eating is again for the last couple weeks.
