2 Nyc Options - Ruby Foo's And Chop't

Thought I'd share two recent experiences, for those who live and visit Midtown Manhattan:

 

Ruby Foo's (somewhat fancy pan-Asian) had a decent Gluten Free menu.  Though only a few items on it (3 entrees, a couple of apps, and a couple of desserts - including crumb cake!)  They seemed to take it all very seriously.  Every dish I got came out with an little allergy sticker on it, and I think may have even been brought by a different waiter.  And it was very good!

 

Chop't - I think this is a small chain of chopped salads to order.  The manager has a binder with all the items and dressings on it, and the ingredients, When I told the first guy that I had a 'gluten allergy', he announced "allergy" down the line and they all changed their gloves and one server went in the back for clean utensils.   I will say that even with his fresh gloves, he still reached into the lettuce bin where every other 'non-allergy' glove had been before, but other than that, it seemed like a pretty clean and safe experience.

Another great place for the east side is Lily and Lu - they even have gluten free dumplings!

      Feeling ill

      By Whyz · Posted

      Not knowing how long I have to wait for a hospital appointment for the intestine and biopsy seems to make things worse. The thing is if you have headaches you take pain killers, isn’t there anything that I can do?.

      Working in a kitchen with gluten?

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Welcome to the forum. Can we assume that you've been diagnosed with celiac disease and have been on a gluten-free diet for a while? If so, it sounds like you may be in the super sensitive group, as others here have reported similar issues when working in bakeries, pizzerias, etc. Until you find other work, and perhaps don't have roommates who cook gluten foods, you may need to consider wearing an N95 mask to avoid breathing in any particles.

      Working in a kitchen with gluten?

      By PixieSticks · Posted

      I used to work in a kitchen where gluten was very prevalent. Cookies, sandwiches, etc. I noticed I started having joint pain, and my hands would flared up in hives while working there. I would sometimes bake cookies during my shift and open the oven having the air from the oven go directly into my face.     Even at home my roommates sometimes fry things with regular flour and my joints start to hurt, brain fog, it was hard to move for a week, I just genuinely felt weak my legs like jelly and painful.  I never put two and two together before.   I’m not eating the food I feel like it’s causing issues.   My roommates don’t think there’s a correlation as I’m not eating any of the food they’re preparing. I’m trying to find another job now, I got one coming up at a restaurant that serves gluten food and I’ll be working in the kitchen. I’m thinking I should try to find a non food job. Anyone else worked food service and have flare ups?
