Wildfire!

We went there last night and it was wonderful!! We set up reservations from their website and it said special instructions. So, I typed in Gluten free menu. When we got there I gave them my name and they had my gluten-free menu waiting for me! It was a little difficult to order because I don't eat red meat or pork. But I ordered the Lemon pepper chicken and mashed potatoes! YUM!!! They were def trained on gluten-free and it was so nice! Best part is I did not get sick!! And they have sandwiches served on gluten-free bread!!! Great experience! Check it out if you have not been there!

Is Wildfire a national chain or local restaurant? I have never heard of it. Glad you had such a great experience eating out!

It looks like they have several in IL, 1 in MN and one coming to Atlanta this fall.

Get out!!!! I can not believe this....I'm so excited! Another place called Seasons 52 is opening near me in early summer and another in town in early Fall. They have their gluten-free menu items on the servers PDA's. Someone on this board told me about the Orlando place as she was already gluten-free at the time but I was not. Seasons 52 had become her fave place in Orlando as apparently she eats there without reaction (if I remember correctly).

Wow guys this is a great day indeed. With no kids we just can't stop eating out and traveling no matter how much time and planning it takes to do so safely. Remember when the low carb diet stuff started appearing on menus everywhere? And that wasn't even for anyone who HAD to give up carbs but chose to. Yes people our time is coming!

Wow, Becky! That looks great... Can I ask it it was really expensive to eat there? It's not that far from me.

Becky6 Enthusiast

It can be depending on what you get. Mine was about $15. For 2 big chicken breasts and a bowl of mashed potatoes. They have sandwiches on gluten-free bread for $9. everything is generous sizes. But if you want the steaks they are $20. But all of the food is very good quality.

That place is great! I go there when I'm in Chicago...

Thanks Becky! I'm going to check them out when everyone is recovered from the nasty colds/sickies. Carleigh and I could split the chicken breasts and get a salad..

I have contacted Wildfire via e-mail and the Atlanta location will be at Perimeter and is set to open in Oct. this year. I mentioned to the woman in Chicago that since I know they haven't trained all the staff yet (too early to hire everyone) that when training the cooks and servers they should tell them to think of gluten as rat poison since that's what it is to people with Celiac disease or gluten intolerance. I don't know if she'll take my advice but it can't hurt. I'll be posting the actual opening date as soon as it's set in early fall.

I am about to have a fit. I'm so excited that there is a Magginao's (Italian) open now with a gluten-free menu, then Seasons 52 and Wildfire about coming this summer and fall. And they are all in an area not too far from me with free parking. I think the doctor who said 'it's a great time to be a Celiac' is right!

Becky6 Enthusiast

Yay!! I am so glad that it will be by you!! I know, there are so many yummy places around!

Thanks again so much for your post about this place! I don't even like burgers that much and now I'm dying to try their burger on the gluten-free bun!!! How cool is that?! The woman in the home office told me that they worked really long and hard perfecting the bun. I'm not expecting a miracle but it will be worth a try!! Plus they have yummy looking gluten-free desserts too! Oh I can't wait until both Seasons 52 and Wildfire open!!! :D

      plant sources of calcium, such as spinach, have calcium bound to oxalates, which is not good. best source of calcium is unfortunately dairy, do you tolerate dairy? fermented dairy like kefir is good and or a little hard cheese. i do eat dairy, i can only take so much dietary restriction and gluten is hard enough! but i guess some people do have bad reactions to it, so different for everyone.

      i take b12, folate, b2, b6, glycine, Nac, zinc, vk2 mk4, magnesium, coq10, pqq, tmg, creatine, omega 3, molybdnem (sp) and just started vit d. quite a list i know.  I have high homocysteine (last checked it was 19, but is always high and i finally decided to do something about it) and very low vitamin d, 10. have been opposed to this supp in the past, but going to try it at 5k units a day. having a pth test on friday, which is suspect will be high. my homocysteine has come down to around 9 with 3 weeks of these supplements and expect it to go down further. i also started on estrogen/progesterone. I have osteoporosis too, so that is why the hormones.  anyway, i think all celiacs should have homocysteine checked and treated if needed (easy enough with b vit, tmg). homocysteine very bad thing to be high for a whole host of reasons. all the bad ones, heart attack , stroke, alzi, cancer..... one of the most annoying things about celiacs (and there are so many!) is the weight gain. i guess i stayed thin all those years being undiagnosed because i was under absorbing everything including calories. going gluten-free and the weight gain has been terrible, 30#, but i'm sure a lot more went into that (hip replacement - and years of hip pain leading to inactivity when i was previously very active, probably all related to celiacs, menopause) yada yada. i seemed to lose appetite control, like there was low glp, or leptin or whatever all those hormones are that tell you that you are full and to stop eating. my appetite is immense and i'm never full. i guess decades or more ( i think i have had celiacs since at least my teens - was hospitalized for abdominal pain and diarrhea for which spastic colon was eventually diagnosed and had many episodes of diarrhea/abdominal pain through my 20's. but that symptom seemed to go away and i related it to dairy much more so than gluten. Also my growth was stunted, i'm the only shorty in my family. anyway, decades of malabsorption and maldigestion led to constant hunger, at least thats my theory. then when i started absorbing normally, wham!! FAT!!!

      Great advise there I agree with the aniexty part, and the aura migraine has I suffer both, I've also read some great books that have helped I'm going too look the one you mentioned up too thankyou for that, I find a camomile tea just a small one and a gentle wind down before bed has helped me too, I suffer from restless leg syndrome and nerve pain hence I don't always sleep well at the best of times , racing mind catches up I have decorated my whole house in one night in my mind before 🤣 diet changes mindset really help , although I have to say it never just disappears, I find once I came to terms with who I am I managed a lot better  , a misconception is for many to change , that means to heal but that's not always the case , understanding and finding your coping mechanisms are vital tools , it's more productive to find that because there is no failure then no pressure to become something else , it's ok to be sad it's ok to not sleep , it's ok to worry , just try to see it has a journey not a task 🤗

      I agree there I've tryed this myself to prove I can't eat gluten or lactose and it sets me back for about a month till I have to go back to being very strict to settle again

      You may also need to supplement with B12 as this vitamin is also involved in iron assimilation and is often deficient in long-term undiagnosed celiac disease.
