Gluten-free options are available as well, for those with either real or pretend celiac disease. Also a great quality: the portability of the food at Scarpa's.

....so sounded great, I read all the stuff thinking the entire time it was a 100% gluten-free restaurant and then they state they make gluten-free options available and none of the intial article food is gluten-free. Nice now I reel in horror as they mention the waiters buttering fresh bread where you can see it before bringing you your food and all the noodles....then you read closer and catch the phrase "real or pretend celiac disease"   This article is a joke and a mockery of those who suffer from celiac or NCGS.

Going to be BLUNT admin, who paid for this? Did you or someone else you know eat there with a good experience and know they have a dedicated gluten-free kitchen and no CC issues? Cause at this point this is just a pie in the face article that blatantly got me thinking it was a great place and reminded me of my child hood then slammed it all on the pavement smeared it.

I looked it up they have gluten-free options for pasta with gluten-free penne and a gluten-free pizza crust, they have mixed reviews, and apparently no 100% dedicated gluten-free cooking area. So like eating at a olive garden, pizza hut, or dominoes with a bit more flare, your still most likely going to get sick from CC in a gluten laden kitchen. Actually a bit worse, they make everything FRESH....oh great have you seend or worked in a Italian restaurant? IF they are making pizza dough crust, garlic breads, bread sticks, french breads, etc in a traditional manner there will be flour dusting......I know all of this well from having worked in a Italian restaurant years ago for a bit. AND I will not even enter one now days.

I agree with Ennis! Wth? This is simply a review for a regular restaurant with a few gluten-free options they don't even talk about. Why is this even on celiac.com?

      When my wife attempted to open the online card in the store with a cashier, it would not work. We then showed the owner the link to the card, the online receipt that I got upon purchase, and even my bank statement confirming the purchase. That did not satisfy her, since she said she needed the link to open to reveal the gift ID num. They even admitted they had a systems problem around that time.

      Was the card itself lost or just the record or both?

      We were flabergasted that the owner would not acknowledge a $50 e-gift card I purchased for my celiac wife. My wife tried to open it in the store and was informed there had been a system change and they could not find the record. No worries, she was told, just talk to management. Six months later, and numerous absurd back and forths, and the owner literally informs me there have been "bad actors", so she can't make good on this lost gift card. In other words, she accused me of lying and committing fraud... over $50! Please be careful with your orders and purchases here.

      Yes, some people do get withdrawal from gluten but gluten withdrawal doesn't usually cause gut pain. Maybe more like general body aches and discomfort. We have articles on gluten withdrawal on this forum. You might do a search for them. Applesauce is very acidic and some brands have added vitamin C (ascorbic acid) which makes them more acidic. This can damage the stomach lining if you eat it too often. Especially if your stomach lining is already compromised. Ibuprofen inhibits the body's ability to rebuild the stomach's protective mucosal lining. That's why it can cause peptic ulcers. As strange as it may sound, low level irritation/inflammation stimulates the body to rebuild the stomach lining. There are two steps in this rebuilding process known as COX 1 and COX 2. Ibuprofen represses both COX 1 and COX 2. Celecoxcib, a prescription anti inflammatory, inhibits only COX 2, making it less likely to cause damage to the gut lining.

      Do you or anyone know alot about ibuprofen  I wasn't sure if I was eating too much apple sauce.   Something is making my pain so much worse  I'm referring to the intense pins and needles in my feet and lower legs.  Jaw actually has tardive dystonia and muscle spasms throughout my back Almost like an opposite effect that a pain reliever would do. I'm fairly new to this. Whatever is going on seems to be worsening  Do people get a withdrawal effect from gluten?  It's extremely painful 😖  I'll post that question or research on the site  Thank you everyone for responding
