Next trip to New York


SpanishCeliac

Hello: my name is Abel and I am celiac. 

I'm writing to you from Spain, because in October I'm going on my honeymoon trip to New York, And I'm trying to gather information on where to eat. 

I've searched google maps and travel forums, but some reviews aren't up to date, or I don't trust them, because "gluten-free" doesn't mean it's suitable for celiacs

I would like if you could help me, make a list of restaurants, bakeries, grocery stores, etc. where it is safe to eat without fear of cross-contamination. 

Thank you in advance.

I would also recommend to pay attention to local small restaurants. When I am visiting NY I like to go to china town and eat in small home restaurants where people cook simple but very tasty food, also it's much cheaper than to eat in a hyped place.

Find me gluten free is an excellent resource.

Modern Bread and Bagel—completely safe for celiacs.  Two locations, one on Upper West Side and the other on 14th Street in Chelsea.  Lilli and Lou’s for celiac-safe Chinese cuisine.  I am highly sensitive and eat at these places regularly.  

Many restaurants in NYC that have gluten-free options are still risky because of cross-contamination.

Congrats on your upcoming honeymoon trip to New York! I totally get your concerns about finding safe places to eat as a celiac. It can be tricky, but there are definitely some reliable spots in the city. For restaurants, check out Senza Gluten, Risotteria Melotti, and Friedman's. For bakeries, definitely swing by Tu-Lu's Gluten-Free Bakery and Jennifer's Way Bakery. And for grocery shopping, Whole Foods Market and Trader Joe's have good gluten-free sections with clear labeling.

      With that many foods removed from your diet, what do you eat?  I also have histamine issues and migraines so that takes out certain trigger foods and high histamine vegetables.  Have allergies to coconut and issues with nuts so those are out.  I'm beginning to think I may have to remove dairy and some of the grains beyond wheat to get allergies under control.  Just having so many issues figuring out what to make at meal times.  What's a typical breakfast look like for you?  Thanks.

      @Healthforme, No prescription needed for thiamine hydrochloride, Benfotiamine, and TTFD (Tetrahydrofurfuryl Disulfide).  They are available over the counter.   Thiamine Mononitrate is not recommended because the body doesn't absorb or utilize it well.

      HLA-DQ2 is NOT a continuum 2.01 to 2.99, but I don’t understand HLA genetics well enough to explain it further.  It is not just one gene that is either this or that.

      Okay, I'm taking a guess here. We are used to hearing in layman terms that having either the HLA-DQ2 or the HLA-DQ8 gene, either heterozygous or homozygous, presents the possibility of developing active celiac disease. So, I'm guessing that the HLA-DQ2 gene is actually a range of variants (2.01-2.99) with HLA-DQ 2.5 being in the centerpiece of the range. I'm also guessing that "permissive" is equivalent to "possessing the possibility" to develop active celiac disease and does not address the issue of hetero vs. homozygus per se. But the fact that 2.01,2.01 is a couplet may indicated homozygousity? All wild guesses.
