Dutch Apple Dinner Theater

In the grocery store today I met another person with celiac for the very first time. Yea!!! I was so excited. The best part was that he told me that the Dutch Apple Dinner Theater in Lancaster, PA will do a gluten free meal with appropriate notice... I am so excited! I didn't call them yet, but I checked their website and it says:

"What if I have special dietary needs?

Our buffet features Heart-Smart items that meet the American Heart Association criteria and an extensive salad bar is available. There is always a fish entrée on the buffet as well. For those with extreme dietary needs, you may contact the Chef, John Spang, two weeks prior to the performance that you are attending to advise us of your needs. If it is within two weeks of the performance, we CAN NOT guarantee a special meal. These requests should be limited."

That sounds promising! If anyone else has tried this place, please leave some feedback. I'm still pretty wary about eating out. I would really like to go there though.

I was so excited that I forgot to mention the other places he talked about. Oops... He said that the Hong Kong Garden in Lancaster was familiar with the gluten free diet and VERY accomodating as well as the Lyndon Diner in Manheim. He said that all three places knew what celiac disease was and that they were all happy to meet his dietary needs. Wow wow wow!!! I'm so excited that I can hardly contain myself. :D

Guhlia--Your timing is impecable! I just got off the phone with my husband--we were discussing a trip he has to take in the spring. He was saying that the 2 of us should go to Lancaster for a few days when it gets warmer. All of your info. is coming in handy for my future reference :D

Jersey, there's also an Outback and a Carabba's in Lancaster and both are REALLY good about their gluten-free menus. They're right off of route 30, right next to each other, so they're really easy to find.

This guy also told me that the Log Cabin restaurant in Lititz did a gluten free meal for him. I just couldn't believe all the places he said he'd been and not had a problem. I'm almost ready to start trying to eat out again. I've been to Outback and Carabba's, but I haven't gotten up the guts yet to try any of our "local" restaurants. This guy really gave me some hope!

You'll have to let me know if you have luck anywhere when you come to the area.

Yes--I'll let you know!--I really have not eaten out at all since my dx. except in Sept. for my son's 21st birthday. But I am determined that this spring/summer I am going to get away! As you know, I love that whole area and fortunately, it's not too far away--about 2 1/2 hrs. tops. Can you believe how Route 30 has built up? I remember going in the 80's when the whole strip was just beginning to build up. I really prefer the "off the beaten trail" small shops and antique stores.

Do you know if Wilbur chocolate is gluten free? Have you been to the factory in Lititz? I e-mailed them this morning to ask, but I haven't heard back from them yet. Let me know if you know anything. I'll let you know if I hear back from them.

      My journey is it gluten or fiber?

      Is there a digestive enzyme that helps build a healthier gut? I see people taking them but not sure what really works

      So the tTG-IGA at 28 is positive for celiac disease. There are some other medical conditions that can cause elevated tTG-IGA but this is unlikely. There are some people for whom the dairy protein casein can cause this but by far the most likely cause is celiac disease. Especially when your small bowel lining is "scalloped".

      Thoughts? Non-endoscopic Celiac diagnosis in two year old

      Okay that is really good to know. So with that being positive and the other being high it makes sense she diagnosed her even without the endoscopy. So glad we caught it early. She had so many symptoms though that to me it was clear something was wrong. yeah I think we had better test us and the other kids as well.

      So the tTG-IGA at 28 is positive for celiac disease. There are some other medical conditions that can cause elevated tTG-IGA but this is unlikely. There are some people for whom the dairy protein casein can cause this but by far the most likely cause is celiac disease. Especially when your small bowel lining is "scalloped". Your Serum IGA 01 (aka, "total IGA") at 245 mg/dl is within normal range, indicating you are not IGA deficient. But I also think it would be wise to take your doctor's advice about the sucraid diet and avoiding dairy . . . at least until you experience healing and your gut has had a chance to heal, which can take around two years. After that, you can experiment with adding dairy back in and monitor symptoms. By the way, if you want the protein afforded by dairy but need to avoid casein, you can do so with whey protein powder. Whey is the other major protein in dairy.
