My friend is having a birthday party here and I have never been here before. I know that obviously everything with beer is off limits but anyone eaten here before?

Thanks for the help.

I ate there in New Orleans. One of my most fondly remembered meals. They were very helpful and made me a salad with poached salmon on top and then steamed vegetables on top of the salmon. All mixed in with the lettuce. It may sound wierd but the flavor was great and I loved it. It was one of those times when I gave the server my card, who got the manager, who talked to the chef and then came back to me and said "anything on the menu is out, but this is what we can do for you". They couldn't have been nicer. :)

Sure, there are dining cards. You can find many that are free and you can laminate, or buy the ones I found work best. They are triumph dining cards and they have them for every kind of ethnic food you can think of. They are written in the language that applies, for example, the thai card is written on one side in English and the other side in thai and targets the type of foods served in a thai restaurant saying what you can and cannot eat. It addresses cross contamination and is all around a great card and not expensive at all. Their website is www.triumphdining.com . Some people make their own cards, especially those with additional food intolerances not covered on the standard cards. If you want an example of what to write yourself, go to www.gluten free.com and search under restaurant card.

THANKS! Even though I feel pretty savvy dealing with celiac disease when I eat out, every little bit to reduce the possibility of being glutenated helps! I love this forum!

I was a bartender at GB.

They use the beer in many sauces and salad dressings (yes, beer is used in some of the salad dressings :)

Having said that, I used to have the NY strip w/ mashed potatoes (no gravy). They can also do a green salad with veggies (no croutons) and oil and vinegar on the side.

Also, call ahead and ask the chef about the gluten content of:

1. Chicken Marsala (over mashers)

2. Half Roasted Chicken

3. Ahi Tuna (with mashers substituted)

4. Salmon (no marinade - grilled or steamed).

Hope this helps,

Bronco

I just got my triumph dining cards and they are looking pretty cool! I have to say I am impressed - I didn't want to pay but my brother is getting married to a Chinese girl and her family does lots of eating at Chinese restaurants and the reception will likely be at a restaurant, as well (her brother's was, too). So I thought I'd cover my bases and see if there was a chance a cook there would accomodate me - otherwise it will be all white rice for me. I'll let you know how it goes... haven't had to use them anywhere yet.

      It's also a symptom of EPI.

      3 year old gluten intolerance?

      By Wheatwacked · Posted

      Yes.  Proportionately a small piece to a toddler is like a whole slice to an adult.  This is an important clue.  She was doing well, accidentally ate gluten and later the old behavior returned. I remember reading posts here of people reacting to a kiss from someone who had just eaten gluten. Recent research indicates that 40% of first degree relatives of someone with Celiac have undiagnosed Celiac Disease.  Father, mother, siblings.  There is a whole list of symtoms of "silent celiac".  Here is an article of symptoms possibly mistaken for other causes than Celiac Disease.  When I finally stopped gluten at 63 years old, I counted 19 things that improved, including lifelong mouthbreathing.  I never smelled bad things, so I as a kid, I learned to respond to the other kid's response in order to not seem weird. I really recommend you pursue testing for all the family if you can, and the whole family following GFD.  It is difficult at first, but the benefits will be worth it.

      Feel Good gluten free chicken soup dumplings

      By Visionaerie · Posted

      I get these but where we are, they are called chicken potstickers. I would obviously suggest that it is the ginger in the product that is causing a stimulative digestive effect! So you might want to do what I do, just cook one of them with the rest of your meal so you don't have the same effect. I love the Feel Good products but they are on the expensive side. (I also drink Reed's ginger brew so in general, ginger is a friend of mine..when delivered at the right dose). Hope this helps and have a warm healthy week!

      Glutening symptom? oily stool

      By ognam · Posted

      Has anyone had Steatorrhea (oily/fatty poop) as a temporary glutening symptom or should I be concerned I've introduced chronic gluten somewhere (like in meds)? I haven't gotten Steatorrhea since before I went gluten free. However, I moved in the past few weeks and haven't been as careful - I've eaten at restauraunts with cross contamination but only experienced minor symptoms like headache. The past week, I ate only gluten free food at home except I went to Red Robin and got fries (told them gluten-free; allergy). The next day I had Steatorrhea and the day after that.   I know it's a symptom of malabsorption so I was wondering if it was the kind of thing that could be caused by one event or if it was due to a more chronic issue. Of course I will speak to a GI but I recently moved and need to find one.   Thank you for any info

      Anyone else with very high HDL?

      By plumbago · Posted

      A relative has opened another door for me on this issue -- the possibility of menopause raising HDL. Most studies suggest that menopause decreases HDL-C, however, one study found that often it's increased. "Surprisingly, HDL cholesterol was higher (p < 0.001) in postmenopausal women by 11%. Further, the number of women who had low HDL cholesterol was higher in pre vs. postmenopausal women. The range of ages were 26–49 years for pre-menopausal and 51–74 years for postmenopausal women. "This interesting finding has also been observed by other investigators. It is possible that the observed increase in HDL-C in postmenopausal women could be due to a protective mechanism to counterbalance the deleterious effects of biomarkers associated with menopause. However, further studies are needed to confirm this theory. And to the point raised earlier about functionality: "...some patients with elevated HDL-C concentrations could remain at risk for coronary events if HDL is not functional and some authors have suggested that this could be the case for menopausal women." Postmenopausal Women Have Higher HDL and Decreased Incidence of Low HDL than Premenopausal Women with Metabolic Syndrome. By no means to I think this is definitive, rather food for thought.
