Myrtle Beach gluten-free Options!

Found two very Celiac friendly places in Myrtle Beach.  First was Captain George's Seafood Buffet--yes Buffet!!  Open Original Shared Link  ,  When you let your server know you have food allergies, Celiac, etc. they bring the manager over to your table, he walks you through the buffet line and shows you what is safe and what is not.  The salad bar has one side that does not have any gluten items on it, the other side has the croutons, etc. so no risks of CC.  He said that they changed some of the recipes for some of their dishes so they are gluten-free.  Then places where CC could be a problem the set up two pans of the same thing (vegetables, etc.) so there isn't a risk of someone using a glutened spoon in the second pan.  For other food that is close to gluten that they can't set up two pans, they bring you some from the kitchen so it's not exposed to anything.  In my case it was chicken and prime rib.  The au jus for the prime rib is not gluten-free so they bring you out a fresh slice that was not in au jus.  It was wonderful!!

 

The second was a pancake place called Akel's Family Restaurant.  They have gluten-free pancakes!!  They are very knowledgeable about Celiac and walk you through how they prepare the food so it's safe.  They use a potato flour for their gluten-free pancakes.  He brought out two bottles of syrup, one for the gluten eaters and he said it contained barley malt so it was not gluten-free, the second was a certified gluten-free syrup.  The pancakes were very good!!

I've been to Akel's and it was wonderful! They didn't even charge more than the rest of the meals for ours!

 

Landshark Bar and Grill also has gluten free buns and a separate fryer for the tots and fries!

 

I am a HUGE Myrtle lover and it's been nice to find some options there!

Went to Captain George's Buffet last night & agree with SMRI.  Great experience.  The manager walked me through the line.  He is very knowledgable and will even have kitchen cook an alternative to what is in the buffet. For example, the pork has a sauce that has gluten, but he will have kitchen cook some up fresh without the sauce for you.  He even brought out Udi dinner rolls for me and showed me the packaging so I could be assured they were Udis.  He even stopped by table a few times to make sure I was doing well.  I gourged on the crab legs.  I had no issues from eating there and would highly recommend it if you are in Myrtle Beach.

      Celiac attack confusion and anxiety

      By Colleen H · Posted

      Hi all ! Can a celiac attack be so intense that it causes your entire body to work in reverse? Meaning really bad pain,  neuropathy and muscle,  jaw pain,  the stomach issues , Horrible anxiety and confusion??  I had a Tums and you would think I ate poison. My jaw and stomach did not like it . Not the norm for me. Things that are simple are just out of control. Anyone ever have this happen??  I'm trying to figure out what I ate or did to bring on a celiac like attack. I had an idea before but yesterday I didn't have any gluten unless it was in a medication ?! Any positive suggestions ??  Thank you

      Gluten free stuff

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      The following two lists are very helpful for anyone who is gluten sensitive and needs to avoid gluten when shopping. It's very important to learn to read labels and understand sources of hidden gluten, and to know some general information about product labelling--for example in the USA if wheat is a possible allergen it must be declared on a product's ingredient label like this: Allergens: Wheat.

      Gluten free stuff

      By trents · Posted

      Tammy, in the food industry, "gluten free" doesn't mean the same thing as "no gluten". As Scott explained, the FDA (Food and Drug Administration) allows food companies to use the "gluten-free" label as long as the product does not contain more than 20 ppm (parts per million) of gluten. This number is based on studies the FDA did years ago to determine the reaction threshold for those with celiac disease. And the 20 ppm figure works for the majority of celiacs. There are those who are more sensitive, however, who still react to that amount. There is another, stricter standard known as "Certified Gluten Free" which was developed by a third party organization known as GFCO which requires not more than 10 ppm of gluten. So, when you see "GFCO" or "Certified Gluten Free" labels on food items you know they are manufactured with a stricter standard concerning gluten content. Having said all that, even though you may read the disclaimer on a food item that says the spices may contain wheat, barley or rye (the gluten grains), you should be able to trust that the amount of gluten the spices may contain is so small it allows the total product to meet the requirements of gluten free or certified gluten free labeling. I hope this helps.
