Chuy's

A new Chuy's opened in my town last week. I have not eaten at one since being diagnosed, but I couldn't wait to go! The chips are flour, not corn and there is no specific gluten free menu. HOWEVER the manager came to my table 3 times to discuss my allergy and helped me order fajitas with a non marinated chicken breast, and corn tortillas. He then had a conversation with my waitress to inform her how to help me. After that she brought out more corn toritllas for me to eat with the salsa. He could not confirm if the rice had gluten or not so I chose not to indulge. And he did say things might be cross contaminated but they try their best to work on clean surfaces. Because this is a brand new restaurant, I knew he was doing his best to accommodate me and learn more about how to serve those with gluten allergies. I will definitely be going back for 2 reasons: (1) the only pain I had from eating was being stuffed because it was all so great and (2) the service and care for me was impeccable! Way to go Chuy's! I hope other people find the same help when they eat there.

      Sorry, I think I got you mixed up with another poster.

      I hadn't been eating gluten free before having the antibody test done. I started eating gluten free after having the test done because the gastro PA told me to eat gluten-free for 6 months. I'm now 3 months in.

      I tend to agree with RMJ. Your doc took the reasonable and practical approach to diagnosis. All things considered, it was the right way to go. However, if you have first degree relatives that show signs of possible celiac disease, urge them to get formally tested before they start the gluten free diet.

      It sounds like you have a very reasonable GI doctor, who diagnosed you based on family history and symptoms after eating gluten. I would consider you lucky! The other option would be to make yourself very sick by doing weeks of a gluten challenge prior to an endoscopy.
