Hello all! New here to the forum. My mother is a diagnosed celiac and is coming to visit in a couple of weeks. I'm hoping to find out some places where we can eat out while she is here. Luckily, Wisconsin (Milwaukee area specifically) seems to be pretty aware of the whole celiac/gluten-free need and it won't be a surprise to call ahead to a place and inquire about specialty items, but I wanted to ask the people who really know first!

I'm also going to contact the gluten-free store on the South Side for their ideas.

Thanks!

I have heard that Tess's on the Eastside has a gluten free menu. It is supposed to be great! I have yet to get there.

Zin in Delafield is an Italian rest. but I used to work there. They are very familliar with Celiac. They know that they can't grill the salmon, they have to put it in a sautee pan. She could have the standard pan sautee salmon or chicken, fontina mashed potatoes and sautee veggies. It is a trendy restaraunt. Many compliments when I was there.

You could go the standard... Outback.

Oh, Maggiano's at Mayfair had a gluten free pasta. Maybe give them a call first to see if they still have it. It was good with Alfredo sauce, broccoli, and chicken!!

Good luck!!

      Celiac disease is the most likely cause, but here are articles about the other possible causes:

      Hi @Atl222 As @trents points out, there could be many reasons for this biopsy result.  I am interested to know, is your gastroenterologist concerned?  Also, are your blood tests showing steady improvement over the years? I remember when I had my last biopsy, several years after diagnosis, mine came back with with raised lymphocytes but no villous damage, too! In my own case, my consultant wasn't remotely concerned - in fact, he said I might still get this result even if all I ever did was eat nothing but rice and water.   My coeliac blood tests were still steadily improving, albeit slowly, which was reassuring.

      Welcome to the celiac.com community, @Atl222! Yes, your increased lymphocytes could be in response to oats or it could possibly be cross contamination from gluten that is getting into your diet from some unexpected source but not enough to damage the villi. And I'm certain that increased lymphocytes can be caused by other things besides celiac disease or gluten/oats exposure. See attachment. But you might try eliminating oats to start with and possibly dairy for a few months and then seek another endoscopy/biopsy to see if there was a reduction in lymphocyte counts.

      This is a solid, well-reasoned approach. You’re right that “koji” by itself doesn’t indicate gluten status, and the risk really does come down to which grain is used to culture it. The fact that you directly contacted Eden Foods and received a clear statement that their koji is made from rice only, with no wheat or barley, is meaningful due diligence—especially since Eden has a long-standing reputation for transparency. While the lack of gluten labeling can understandably give pause, manufacturer confirmation like this is often what people rely on for traditionally fermented products. As always, trusting your body after trying it is reasonable, but based on the information you gathered, your conclusion makes sense.
