Welcome to the forum, @Mia George!

You neglected to mention what city you need recommendations for.

Thanks for pointing that out! I'm looking for recommendations in Washington DC. Any gluten-free friendly spots would be greatly appreciated!

Hello,

im from Rhode Island and looking for gluten-free restaurants is tricky unfortunately I was diagnosed 5 months ago and just started to go out to eat found one place so far there menu’s are gluten-free it’s called 110 grill it’s the best so far . I’ve tried a few other places and have gotten sick . And going on a vacation has got to be tricky I’m not ready yet for that.

good luck peace lily

The problem with restaurants that have gluten-free menus is that it doesn't eliminate cross contamination in the way they cook and handle the food back in the kitchen where they are using the same grills, pots and pans and utensils they are using to cook and handle wheat containing foods. The food may start out as gluten free but get's cross contaminated in the prep and handling. This can make a real difference if you are a sensitive celiac.

      What kind of issues have you had going to public schools? Are you gluten-free as well?
    • Scott Adams
      It might be worth a try to see if that is causing you issues. I've not tried it, but don't have the same issues with fruits and vegetables.

      Thank you. i actually get my cheeses generally from Costco:  Brie, and Manchego. but I recall getting reactions from buying Supermarket shredded Mexican mix cheese, and now I know why. Thank you.

      Hello my gluten free friends,  I am 2 years out from diagnosis and doing well. A year prior to having any symptoms I noticed a swollen lymph node. This has been 3ish years ago now. The lymph node currently is still swollen. I recently went back to the doctor for it. They did an ultrasound and found it to have “no suspicious activity and benign in nature”. My doctor said it could have been one of the first signs my body was giving me that I had an autoimmune disorder. She said it may go away eventually or could always stay slightly swollen because of the disease. Has anyone else experienced something similar? I don’t know if I should ask for a biopsy to confirm it’s not cancerous.    Emma

      Be careful of pre-sliced cheese, too.  I have been ok getting it cut at deli's.  That, too, can be a gamble, but so far there has been no cross-contamination.  I have heard they use such a small amount of cellulose, they do not have to include it in the ingredients.
