Nebo Enoteca - Boston Ma (pizza)

Quite pricey, and a complete pain in the ass to park near... but quite good pizza. Their pizza has a wide variety of toppings and some are non-traditional and fantastic. Yum!

I live just north of Boston and turned down going there because I don't think it's right to charge a whole $4 more for gluten-free versions of food they charge quite a lot for in the first place. I can understand a dollar, maybe two dollars more, because of the higher cost of ingredients and extra, separate cookware. But, I think they're price-gouging. They know there aren't too many other places we can go.

while I understand your frustration, I don't think they're price-gouging. They are an expensive restaurant in the first place, but the burdens of dealing with gluten free pizza while you run a regular pizza restaurants cannot be easy. Add the fact that if I recall, they make their own wheat dough, and yet they must BUY their gluten-free pizza crusts and those things are quite expensive relatively speaking.

Where I live, a local pizza place tacks on exactly 4 dollars for a gluten-free pizza on top of the regular price. I'm not thrilled to pay 15 dollars for a pizza, but I'm rather be able to than to have none.

Just MO. There is always Uno's at 13.00 a pie.

I also think that since Nebo is creating much more interesting pizzas than someone like Uno's, you're not only paying for the gluten free option, but you're paying for the ambiance and variety of options above and beyond the norm. And yes, they do order their gluten free crust from a place in Maine, I believe. I spoke extensively with the bartender who was very knowledgeable on the subject, which is a great sign, that they've trained their staff well. don't get me wrong, it's not your average 'go there once a week' type of place for gluten free food...but it's a nice treat.

There's also always Stonehearth Pizza Co in Cambridge...best pizza in my opinion.

Liz,

Stone heart in cambridge is the best pizza in the boston area. The ONLY pie I've had that was better came from Pizza Pi in Keene, NH which I started a thread about a few weeks ago. I LOVE their sausage and carmelized onion pizza, and the fact that they stock Bard's beer. I came close to tears the first time I went.

      Yes, I have concerns about the calcium supplementation as well. Sounds like a good idea on the surface if you are trying to address bone density issues but when overdone it can have the opposite effect. Calcium supplementation increases gut PH (i.e., lowers gut acidity) which can interfere with vitamin and mineral (including calcium itself) absorption. Often, bone demineralization is not due to lack of calcium intake but to low gut acidity. This is why you will often see calcium supplement products paired with vitamin C (ascorbic acid). Drinking OJ or tomato juice along with the calcium supplement can help with this as they are acidic juices. Calcium supplementation can also contribute to plaque arterial buildup I believe. I think it might be best to focus on rich natural sources of calcium.

      In that case if you answer "no" does that mean the chef doesn't have to be as diligent?  If you ask for "pork free" do they ask if it is an allergy too? How's this for an answer: "I get violently sick if I eat wheat, barley or rye"?

      I order my vitamins from Pipingrock.com. They also make Cream of Rice.  Clearly marked gluten free. Right next to the Cream of Wheat. Stoneyfield Whole Milk Yogurt will help repoputate your gut bacteria.  It has lactase so is ok for lactose intolerance. 6 ounces has 210 mg calcium. For magnesium I get the 10 ounce bottle of liquid Magnesium Citrate at the supermarket or drugstore ($3).  One or two ounces of it  in a glass of water.  Add ice and sugar if you like.  I like the Cherry or Grape best. Instead try: Cream of Rice, Cheese and Good Thins (rice crackers), scrambled eggs and gluten free toast. Do you need Calcium supplement?  Calcium from supplements can cause hypercalcemia, a condition that can lead to serious health complications.  Vitamin D increases calcium absorption.  Monitor 25)(OH)D vitamin D plasma and  parathyroid hormone (PTH).

      The forms that vitamin and mineral supplements come in can be important. Bioavailability (i.e., how well they are absorbed) is often sacrificed for the sake of cost and shelf life. The vitamin or mineral you are targeting is always chemically combined with other elements to make them into a dispensable form (such as a powder, liquid or a pill) and to give them some chemical stability for shelf life.
