I'm going to Las Vegas this weekend with my husband. I'm nervous because I've not eaten out much at all since going gluten-free. Does anyone know any good restaurants out there?

Thanks.

I stay at the Mirage and generally never leave the hotel. There is a great new restaurant in the Mirage called STACK. I stopped and saw the General Manager and the Manager and explained my diet. Because I also have a dairy allergy, they went out and bought a gluten free margarine that they could cook my dinner in. They also make a fantastic tomato soup, but they need to know before hand that yours is gluten-free as they pre-make it up. The restaurant is expensive. If you want to go there to eat you can contact me at armettaz@msn.com and I will give you the name and email address so that you can email the person you should for Stack. You would still have to make reservations (I think). The Carnegie Deli is also in the Mirage and you can order Corned Beef or Pastrami. But you have to bring your own bread. We ordered one Pastrami sandwich for my husband and requested that the bread be put on a separate plate. I brought my bread that I had put my own mustard on as I was not sure if theirs was gluten free. Where ever you are staying in LV, you can request a small refrig. be put in your room because of dietary issues. It should be free. If you are staying at Bilaggio, they have a restaurant called FIX that is owned by the same company that owns STACK. The Chef there is the one who helped open STACK and he came out to our table to discuss the foods. What a great expierience. I hope we can go back in April or May. Broncobucs (sp) lives in Las Vegas and he knows lots of places. There is also a PF Changs and an Outback there, but I don't know the exact location. Have Fun.

Carla - I was diagnosed 2 1/2 weeks ago, have been gluten-free for only that long.....felt GREAT five days into it until today - obviously I ate something yesterday... :blink: Still researching what it was. But, I have to go to LV in May for my niece's graduation, and I don't know WHAT to do or where to eat, and since I'm so sick today, I am really concerned! Any help from anyone would be greatly appreciated. Don't know prices of Mirage and if I can afford to stay there - it sounds wonderful! we will see....

Carla,

ditto what Armela said...

1. Fix in the Bellagio is a good place (steak, lobster mashed potatoes, etc)

2. Samba in the Mirage -- Brazilian BBQ place - the chef knows about Celiac and one of the waitresses' mom has celiac disease.

3. Buffets are very dangerous -- cross contamination is rapant there -- but breakfast is do-able at those places -- just get fresh fruit and made to order omelettes. (I like the Bellagio's buffet the best for brunch)

4. PF changs has a gluten free menu and they have a location at the Aladdin (Vegas Blvd and Harmon)

5. There is also an Outback Steakhouse on the strip (3411 S Las Vegas Blvd) - they have a gluten free menu

6. Carnegie Deli in the mirage has great corned beef and pastrami -- Bring your own bread though.

7. There is a Whole Foods in Summerlin (On charleston Blvd) -- west part of Vegas - about 10-15 minutes from the strip.

8. Near that Whole Foods, there is a Carrabbas (gluten free menu) and a Fleming's Steakhouse (gluten free steaks and gluten-free flemings potatoes and a great caprese salad!!)

9. Maggiano's in the fashion show Mall -- they have several gluten free items and serve gluten free pasta

10. Cafe Ba Ba Reeba -- in the Fashion show mall - spanish cuisine -- excellent lobster and scallop paella

11. There is also an In N Out Burger there -- (Burger Protein Style, no sauce and french fries!)

Have fun!!! Hope this helps!

Olives at the Bellagio did a great job making a gluten-free meal for me...

      You might consider asking for a referral to a RD (Registered Dietician) to help with food choices and planning a diet. Even apart from any gluten issues, you will likely find there are some foods you need to avoid because of the shorter bowel but you may also find that your system may make adjustments over time and that symptoms may improve.

      I wish Dr’s would have these discussions with their patients. So frustrating but will continue to do research. Absolutely love this website. I will post any updates on my testing and results. Thank you

      Small Bowel Resection 12 inches

      Losing 12" of your small bowel is going to present challenges for you in nutritional uptake because you are losing a significant amount of nutritional absorption surface area. You will need to focus on consuming foods that are nutritionally dense and also probably look at some good supplements. If indeed you are having issues with gluten you will need to...

      Small Bowel Resection 12 inches

      There are two gluten-related disorders that share many of the same symptoms but differ in nature from each other. One is known as celiac disease or "gluten intolerance". By nature, it is an autoimmune disorder, meaning the ingestion of gluten triggers the body to attack it's own tissues, specifically the lining of the small bowel. This attack causes...

      Losing 12" of your small bowel is going to present challenges for you in nutritional uptake because you are losing a significant amount of nutritional absorption surface area. You will need to focus on consuming foods that are nutritionally dense and also probably look at some good supplements. If indeed you are having issues with gluten you will need to educate yourself as to how gluten is hidden in the food supply. There's more to it than just avoiding the major sources of gluten like bread and pasta. It is hidden in so many things you would never expect to find it in like canned tomato soup and soy sauce just to name a few. It can be in pills and medications.  Also, your "yellow diarrhea, constipation and bloating" though these are classic signs of a gluten disorder, could also be related to the post surgical shorter length of your small bowel causing incomplete processing/digestion of food.

      There are two gluten-related disorders that share many of the same symptoms but differ in nature from each other. One is known as celiac disease or "gluten intolerance". By nature, it is an autoimmune disorder, meaning the ingestion of gluten triggers the body to attack it's own tissues, specifically the lining of the small bowel. This attack causes inflammation and produces antibodies that can be detected in the blood by specific tests like the TTG-IGA test you had. Over time, if gluten is not withheld, this inflammation can cause severe damage to the lining of the small bowel and even result in nutrient deficiency related health issues since the small bowel lining is organ where all the nutrition found in our food is absorbed.  The other is NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity or just "gluten sensitivity") which we know less about and are unsure of the exact mechanism of action. It is not an autoimmune disorder and unlike celiac disease it does not damage the lining of the small bowel, though, like celiac disease, it can cause GI distress and it can also do other kinds of damage to the body. It is thought to be more common than celiac disease. Currently, we cannot test for NCGS. Celiac disease must first be ruled out to arrive at a diagnosis of NCGS. Both disorders require elimination of gluten from the diet.  Either of these disorders can find their onset at any stage of life. We know that celiac disease has a genetic component but the genes are inactive until awakened by some stress event. About 40% of the general population has the genetic potential to develop celiac disease but only about 1% develop active celiac disease. The incidence of NCGS is thought to be considerably higher. I hope this helps.
