Las Vegas

I'm going to Las Vegas soon and usually when we go somewhere we always book a place that has a kitchenette. HOWEVER, my other half is in the military and the military is putting us up and it does not have a kitchenette. We're trying to confirm if it even has a fridge and/or a microwave.

So...I was wondering if anyone is from the area or has vacationed in Vegas and if anyone has any gluten-free tips or knows of places to eat that are gluten-free, etc. I'm going to call the hotel and see what I can find out including if their restaurants can do anything for me, etc. If not, I guess I'll eat gluten-free ceral bars and drink a bunch of bacardi rum drinks the entire time i'm there. HAHA!!!

Thanks for any input!

I can't think of anything besides PF Changs right now. I do know there was a topic posted about gluten-free places in Las Vegas. Good Luck!!

I was there last year and had dinner at Gallagher's in New York, New York. I told them I was a Celiac and they managed a lovely meal for me.

There are plenty of postings about Las Vegas eating. Broncobux lives there and you might try to PM him for specific spots. There is an Outback, PF Changs, Carnagie Deli (in the Mirage) and take your own bread as they serve a GIANT pastrami that is more then enough for two. Just ask to have the pastrami on a separate plate. I believe there is a Buffalo Wild Wings there and you can have the chili and several of the wing sauces. But Broncobux knows many more. Have fun.

I live in Vegas - but have only been here for about 9 months. I'm not too familiar with the restaurants on the main part of "The Strip" (las vegas blvd)....but I know a few restaurants that are talked about in the restaurant section of this website that are also in Vegas. Outback Steakhouse is a good option for you - as they have their own gluten-free menu. Do you know what hotel you are staying in? There are 9 ( or 8? I don't remember) Outbacks in Vegas. If your hotel is around the Strip area - there are two Outbacks on that road. One in the middle of it all - and one on the South end (the one I work at)....in front of the Outlet Mall. PF Changs, Carrabbas, Bonefish Grill, Roys and Flemings all have gluten free menus. (You can look up their websites and they should have their locations and menus on them.) Chipotle (a cheaper place to eat so you don't break your checkbook the days you're here) is in Vegas (there's one right next to the Outback on the South Strip)....and they have gluten-free options. It would be a good idea to call the hotel you're staying at and ask them about their restaurants...and even recommend some other's that are nearby. If all else fails - find a wendy's and order a salad and baked potato! :)

While in Vegas I ate at PF Changs, (there's an outback too) and Olives at the Bellagio, which did a great job for me. If you go--make sure you get a seat out of the balcony. Very fun. I had lunch at one of the restaurants at the Wynn (can't remember which) and they did a good job too. I would say most of the restaurants at the nicer casinos would be glad to help you. They were great at the Bellagio where we stayed. I had a fridge and took care of breakfast on my own each morning. There is also an Outback on the strip. You could also e-mail the LV Celiac group for more info: lvceliacsupport-owner@yahoogroups.com Have fun!!

      FDA Moves to Improve Gluten Labeling—What It Means for People With Celiac Disease

      My question I have proposed to the FDA through their website is why Prescription and OTC drug manufacturers are not required to list what binding ingredients were used to bine the drug? They list this on Capsules which are made of cellulose but not on pills? As it stands I or my pharmacist must contact the manufacturer to find out and my list is long from...

      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!!!

      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.
