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.

      Thank you for the links to the articles.  Interesting reading. I'll be telling my brother in law because he has a lot of pain

      Oats naturally contain a protein called avenin, which is similar to the gluten proteins found in wheat, barley, and rye. While avenin is generally considered safe for most people with celiac disease, some individuals, around 5-10% of celiacs, may also have sensitivity to avenin, leading to symptoms similar to gluten exposure. You may fall into this category, and eliminating them is the best way to figure this out. Some people substitute gluten-free quinoa flakes for oats if they want a hot cereal substitute. If you are interested in summaries of scientific publications on the topic of oats and celiac disease, we have an entire category dedicated to it which is here: https://www.celiac.com/celiac-disease/oats-and-celiac-disease-are-they-gluten-free/
