Hi lister

see you live in Oregon..I have found 'IF THE MANAGER IS GOOD' RED ROBBIN IS THE BEST FOR US!!!

IF YOU GET A BAD MANAGER...YOUR AT THEIR MERCY...I'M GOING TO FORWARD THIS EMAIL TO MY FAVORITE MANAGER, DAVE HOWK AT THE EXTON PA RED ROBBIN. HE HAS BEEN SO INCREDIABLE TO MY HUSBAND AND I.

THERE ARE ALOT OF THREADS ON HERE FOR THAT RESTURANT. IT SEEMS THERE IS A DIFFERENCE BETWEEN A FRANCHINSE AND CORP OWNED ESTABLISMENTS.

GLAD YOU HAD A GOOD EXPERIENCE. I LOVE THIS PLACE..AND THE FOOD IS TERRIFIC.

JUDY IN PHILLY :)

I have to learn to speak up. When we went to Red Robin, about a week ago, I asked for a Gluten Free menu. (I'd been told they were available) And, the server looked at me as if I were speaking a totally different language than she was.

We ended up getting our daughter fries, and lemonaid. I was too afraid to let her try anything else.

I just realized that I could actually eat a decent meal at Red Robin. My dad came in to visit me the yesterday and I took him to Red Robin b/c he'd never been. I didn't know if I would find anything gluten-free there or not b/c I didn't have time to check before we went out. I just asked the server a few questions (like do you fry anything else in the fryer besides the french fries?) He was really nice and admitted that they did not have a dedicated fryer (the way he said it made it seem like they were supposed to). So, I got a lettuce burger and a salad. It was a really good meal and I'll definetly go back!

Mandy and Lister--if you read the last Red Robbin thread that was up a few days ago...I said that my manager in Exton read me the oil ingred "over the phone" the next day when he called to see how i was...

the oil they have on hand has soy in it. i can't have soy so he buys another kind of oil and keeps for me and others who can't have soy...and they do not have a dedicated fryer...he just uses a clean pan and fries my ff in that one pan...

ok this may not be a answer for all travelers...remember i posted of my Easter experience where one R Robbin refused to feed me and asked me to leave..it happened to another poster on here too...so

guess you just have to call. that's the best advice i can give you

lister I didn't know i had a problem with soy until about 6 months into being gluten-free.so some tips for you and Mandy

Last time I went to RR, the manager and chef came out to talk with me. They steered me towards one of the burgers with bbq sauce (no bun). And steamed veggies. As much as I thought I'd miss the fries, I ate every morsel of food and it was wonderful. They told me that they do have a dedicated fryer, but they fry fish and onion rings in the next fryer, so there's always the chance for a small amount of cc. They were fantastic.

judy in philly -- Thanks for the advice. I really need to start planning/calling ahead so that I can feel safer about eating more than just bunny food :D

      Bob red mill gluten free oats

      Not necessarily. The "Gluten Free" label means not more than 20ppm of gluten in the product which is often not enough for super sensitive celiacs. You would need to be looking for "Certified Gluten Free" (GFCO endorsed) which means no more than 10ppm of gluten. Having said that, "Gluten Free" doesn't mean that there will necessarily be more gluten than "Certified...

      Disaccharide deficient, confusing biopsy results, no blood test

      I think it is wise to seek a second opinion from a GI doc and to go on a gluten free diet in the meantime. The GI doc may look at all the evidence, including the biopsy report, and conclude you don't need anything else to reach a dx of celiac disease and so, there would be no need for a gluten challenge. But if the GI doc does want to do more testing, you...

      High TTG-IgG and Normal TTG-IgA

      Let me suggest an adjustment to your terminology. "Celiac disease" and "gluten intolerance" are the same. The other gluten disorder you refer to is NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity) which is often referred to as being "gluten sensitive". Having said that, the reality is there is still much inconsistency in how people use these terms. Since celiac disease...

The GI doc may look at all the evidence, including the biopsy report, and conclude you don't need anything else to reach a dx of celiac disease and so, there would be no need for a gluten challenge. But if the GI doc does want to do more testing, you can worry about the gluten challenge at that time. But between now and the time of the appointment, if your symptoms improve on a gluten free diet, that is more evidence. Just keep in mind that if a gluten challenge is called for, the bare minimum challenge length is two weeks of the daily consumption of at least 10g of gluten, which is about the amount found in 4-6 slices of wheat bread. But, I would count on giving it four weeks to be sure.

      thank you both for the insights. i agree, im going to back off on dairy and try sucraid. thanks for the tip about protein powder, i will look for whey protein powder/drinks!   i don’t understand why my doctor refused to order it either. so i’ve decided i’m not going to her again, and i’m going to get a second opinion with a GI recommended to me by someone with celiac. unfortunately my first appointment isn’t until February 17th. do you think i should go gluten free now or wait until after i meet with the new doctor? i’m torn about what i should do, i dont know if she is going to want to repeat the endoscopy, and i know ill have to be eating gluten to have a positive biopsy. i could always do the gluten challenge on the other hand if she does want to repeat the biopsy.    thanks again, i appreciate the support here. i’ve learned a lot from these boards. i dont know anyone in real life with celiac.

      Let me suggest an adjustment to your terminology. "Celiac disease" and "gluten intolerance" are the same. The other gluten disorder you refer to is NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity) which is often referred to as being "gluten sensitive". Having said that, the reality is there is still much inconsistency in how people use these terms. Since celiac disease does damage to the small bowel lining it often results in nutritional deficiencies such as anemia. NCGS does not damage the small bowel lining so your history of anemia may suggest you have celiac disease as opposed to NCGS. But either way, a gluten-free diet is in order. NCGS can cause bodily damage in other ways, particularly to neurological systems.
