Hemingway's - Killington Vt

Recommended Posts

I was at an event catered by Hemingway's (of Killington, VT - the event I went to was in NH) last weekend - they took *excellent* care of me.

They knew ahead of time that there would be a gluten-free diner, and they adjusted wonderfully. They even cooked 2 kinds of gluten-free bread that my (non gluten-free) spouse thought tasted great! That was a first!! They had thoughtful substitutions where necessary (not just 'leave it out' or 'put it on a slice of cucumber instead'). Where there were look-alike items (with a lamb course, most folks got a zucchini-wrapped timbale of cous-cous; mine was filled with rice) they confirmed as they put the plate down that mine was indeed gluten-free.

Here is the Open Original Shared Link - it notes that their "from scratch" meals can take 2 or 3 hours to eat (!) so I'm sure they are pricey, but if you're in the area and are looking for a special occasion meal, I highly recommend them based on my off-site catered experience.

thanks for posting this- I love that area and may just go out of my way to try them. It sounds awesome!

I see you're in MA - on the way home we had clams at Farnham's (in Essex) - they did differentiate between my gluten-free order of clams and spouse's (he had onion rings that aren't gluten-free) - so definitely clarify when ordering that you want gluten-free, couldn't tell if that meant a separate fryer for me or actually different batter.

The woman at the counter said that some days you can get gluten-free onion rings, so might be worth a call ahead if you're in the mood for a fried food fest!

Woodman's in Essex does this too! I didn't know Farnham's did. This is very good to know. I actually had a fried food fest last Friday with my dad at Woodman's.

Gotta love gluten free options! I almost dropped dead when I found out I could have French fries and fried clams again!

Hey Mtndog.....I was a t Woodman's on Saturday, doing the same thing! :D I was craving their fried clams so hubby and I headed out and we totally pigged out on fried food. I honestly think their food is the best fried food on the planet. It is a little expensive but considering it is fresh off the boat AND gluten-free, I will gladly pay what is costs to eat there. I also love the fact they serve beer and wine.

I have never heard of Farnham's but will keep them in mind on my next visit.

      Thanks for the tips, Scott. I will definitely give those a try.

      Thanks Scott. its been a tough journey. i haven’t been able to take any painkillers for pain, because they all contain some form of cellulose. I’m finally working with a compounding pharmacist to get compounded Ibuprofen w/o cellulose filler … I’ll let you know how that works out. when I tell doctors about my problems with cellulose and medications, sadly they really don’t understand the magnitude of the problem. My reason for responding to the original post was to let others know they’re not crazy - and there’s such a thing as cellulose intolerance. Thank you so much for your response.

      Hello @CelluloseSick, it sounds like you’ve been through a really challenging journey trying to pinpoint and avoid cellulose fillers in medications. Severe migraines and liquid diarrhea, especially with Ulcerative Colitis, must make this an incredibly difficult issue to manage. It’s frustrating how hidden these ingredients can be, and it definitely takes a lot of detective work to connect the dots. While true cellulose allergies or intolerances don’t seem to be well-documented, some people do report digestive issues, headaches, or other symptoms when exposed to cellulose-based fillers. Unfortunately, there isn’t a clear statistic on what percentage of the population suffers from this, but anecdotal evidence suggests that you are not alone. Have you found any specific resources or medical professionals who acknowledge this issue? It’s great that you’ve been able to find compounded medications with sucrose fillers—hopefully, that continues to work for you!

      Btw, I recently switched from Compounded T3/T4 ( which had cellulose in it, unbeknown to me) and was making me sick to a brand called NP Thyroid. No cellulose filler

      So happy to have found this Post. ive been struggling with cellulose fillers in meds for years. When I found out, I looked for meds that do not contain cellulose filler or have had to get compounded meds made with sucrose filler. My reactions are:  severe migraines and liquid diarrhea ( not fun when you suffer from Ulcerative Colitis). not sure what percentage of the population suffer from such allergy. you'd have to be a pretty good sleuth to find this and make the connections. Bravo for you!   anyone know what percentage of population suffers from cellulose intolerance? thanks?
