My in-laws sent me a menu from a restaurant called "Corbetts" in the Portland, Oregon area, that has a menu that is mostly gluten-free, and each menu item is clearly labeld Gluten Free! Is that cool or what. Unfortunately I am in Alaska, and can't go and check it out, but if any of you try it let us know how it is! It's a fish and chips type place. :lol:

Hey,

I live in Portland and yes, Corbetts (Corbett Fish House) is so great about gluten free. They make nearly everyting with rice flour except for bread, it's awesome.

Just thought I would update the Portland, Oregon area list of Gluten Free options for eating out.

In addition to Corbett's Fish House there is of course PF Changs. There's also Andina in NW Portland, the Pearl District to be exact. I think it's on the corner of 13th and Glisan.

As for yummy tasty treats you have New Seasons on Division with all kinds of goodies to choose from that are Gluten Free. You can order amazingly delicious cakes from Piece Of Cake bakery in Sellwood. And recently Good Cookie, Bad Cookie re-opened and now has gluten-free treats available. I had some of their home made chocolate chip cookies and they're good! The young chef is working with even more gluten-free options due to demand. If you've ever drove down SE Milwaukie avenue on your way to Sellwood... you've seen this house. It looks like a life size gingerbread house. The staff is very nice and will give you samples without having to ask.

Another update...

I just found out about a local grocery store called Health Nut Nutrition Center - 14634 SE Sunnyside Rd. in Clackamas, Oregon ( 503-558-8284 ). They cater to Gluten Free, Dairy Free, and other "free" goods. I'd say at least half if not more is dedicated to gluten-free products though. It's a small store in a strip mall but they carry things I've never seen in Whole Foods, New Seasons or Wild Oats. I recently picked up some very good bread and pizza crusts. They have frozen goods too and they told me they are getting more gluten-free lines in a week or two. If you're looking for something that you haven't been able to find in other stores, chances are they have it. If not, I bet they'll order it for you. Very nice and friendly!

From Clackamas Mall, go east on Sunnyside Rd till you see the signs for Albertsons and McDonalds... they're in the same strip mall.

I visited my sister in Portland over thxgvg and having heard of Corbett Fish House, was so excited we went straight there from the airport !

Also, anyone from the midwest will recognize the perch. (The owners are from Wisc.) mmmmmmmmmmmmmm :D

Highly recommended.

Okay... tried Andina restaurant on Friday night and it is tasty!! If you used to love to go out to a real nice restaurant once in a while and live it up, but can't due to living gluten-free... those days are over. This place is nice, servers and staff are friendly and informative and the food is really good. Really good. The gluten-free specific menu is two pages long and there's a good variety to choose from. Very diverse items and easily something there for everyone. My wife and I chose to order a few things from the small plates menu and eat Tapas / Appetizer style. With five items... we were incredibly full but everything was so yummy that we couldn't stop eating.

If you're in Portland or just visiting... check this place out for sure. It's worth the trip. If you plan on going during the weekend for dinner, make sure to call earlier in the day or the day before to make a reservation because they fill up quick.

Hey there,

in Portland are also Outback Steakhouses (6 alone there as of what i saw on their homepage).

Open Original Shared Link

They have the gluten-free signs on their menu as well. I ate there already 4 times since going gluten-free and was feeling well all the time.

Hugs, Stef

Hi,

My husband and I drove up and ate at Corbett's Fish House today. What a treat! Good "regular" food that I didn't have to worry about! I haven't had either fried fish or french fries at a restaurant since I was diagnosed--I really enjoyed it. And to top it off gluten-free cheesecake! I haven't had cheesecake at all since I was diagnosed almost two years ago. It was delicious. I was elated! Good service and pleasant owners, too.

Great experience--I recommend Corbett's to others!

Best Wishes!

      In the study linked above, the little girl switched to a gluten free diet and gained enough weight that that fat pad was replenished and surgery was not needed.   Here's the full article link...

      Hello, @Jordan Carlson, So glad you're feeling better.   Tecta is a proton pump inhibitor.  PPI's also interfere with the production of the intrinsic factor needed to absorb Vitamin B12.  Increasing the amount of B12 you supplement has helped overcome the lack of intrinsic factor needed to absorb B12. Proton pump inhibitors also reduce the production of digestive juices (stomach acids).  This results in foods not being digested thoroughly.  If foods are not digested sufficiently, the vitamins and other nutrients aren't released from the food, and the body cannot absorb them.  This sets up a vicious cycle. Acid reflux and Gerd are actually symptoms of producing too little stomach acid.  Insufficient stomach acid production is seen with Thiamine and Niacin deficiencies.  PPI's like Tecta also block the transporters that pull Thiamine into cells, preventing absorption of thiamine.  Other symptoms of Thiamine deficiency are difficulty swallowing, gagging, problems with food texture, dysphagia. Other symptoms of Thiamine deficiency are symptoms of ADHD and anxiety.  Vyvanse also blocks thiamine transporters contributing further to Thiamine deficiency.  Pristiq has been shown to work better if thiamine is supplemented at the same time because thiamine is needed to make serotonin.  Doctors don't recognize anxiety and depression and adult onset ADHD as early symptoms of Thiamine deficiency. Stomach acid is needed to digest Vitamin C (ascorbic acid) in fruits and vegetables.  Ascorbic acid left undigested can cause intestinal upsets, anxiety, and heart palpitations.   Yes, a child can be born with nutritional deficiencies if the parents were deficient.  Parents who are thiamine deficient have offspring with fewer thiamine transporters on cell surfaces, making thiamine deficiency easier to develop in the children.  A person can struggle along for years with subclinical vitamin deficiencies.  Been here, done this.  Please consider supplementing with Thiamine in the form TTFD (tetrahydrofurfuryl disulfide) which helps immensely with dysphagia and neurological symptoms like anxiety, depression, and ADHD symptoms.  Benfotiamine helps with improving intestinal health.  A B Complex and NeuroMag (a magnesium supplement), and Vitamin D are needed also.

      @pothosqueen, Welcome to the tribe! You'll want to get checked for nutritional deficiencies and start on supplementation of B vitamins, especially Thiamine Vitamin B 1.   There's some scientific evidence that the fat pad that buffers the aorta which disappears in SMA is caused by deficiency in Thiamine.   In Thiamine deficiency, the body burns its stored fat as a source of fuel.  That fat pad between the aorta and digestive system gets used as fuel, too. Ask for an Erythrocyte Transketolace Activity test to look for thiamine deficiency.  Correction of thiamine deficiency can help restore that fat pad.   Best wishes for your recovery!   Interesting Reading: Superior Mesenteric Artery Syndrome in a 6-Year-Old Girl with Final Diagnosis of Celiac Disease https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/31089433/#:~:text=Affiliations,tissue and results in SMAS.

      Wow! You're pretty young to have a diagnosis of SMA syndrome. But youth also has its advantages when it comes to healing, without a doubt. You might be surprised to find out how your health improves and how much better you feel once you eliminate gluten from your diet. Celiac disease is an autoimmune disorder that, when gluten is consumed, triggers an attack on the villous lining of the small bowel. This is the section of the intestines where all our nutrition is absorbed. It is made up of billions of tiny finger-like projections that create a tremendous surface area for absorbing nutrients. For the person with celiac disease, unchecked gluten consumption generates inflammation that wears down these fingers and, over time, greatly reduces the nutrient absorbing efficiency of the small bowel lining. This can generate a whole host of other nutrient deficiency related medical problems. We also now know that the autoimmune reaction to gluten is not necessarily limited to the lining of the small bowel such that celiac disease can damage other body systems and organs such as the liver and the joints and cause neurological problems.  It can take around two years for the villous lining to completely heal but most people start feeling better well before then. It's also important to realize that celiac disease can cause intolerance to some other foods whose protein structures are similar to gluten. Chief among them are dairy and oats but also eggs, corn and soy. Just keep that in mind.
