I am heading to Philly for a wedding and would like some info on places that are safe to eat while I am there. Does anyone have any suggestions? Anything you have would be helpful!

Thanks so much.

Will you be downtown? If so, here are some places:

Ted's Montana Grille

Roy's

Maggianos

Chickie and Pete's (south philly)

Mr. Ritz gluten free bakery (off of south street) - take out only

I will let you know if I think of any other ones!

I would recommend calling ahead for Maggiano's... they sometimes run out of the gluten-free pasta.

We also like the White Dog Cafe... the chef was very knowledgable about celiac and was very specific about ingredients (such as the mashed potatos.)

My kids live in Phila. and my middle daughter has Celiac. She's found managers to be most cooperative and helpful, especially when she calls ahead and talks to them before rush hour. Her favs are El Vez and any of the Steven Starr restaurants.

Thanks so much for your input! I will certainly give these places a look! If you think of any more, please let me know. I like my options :P

We loved Ted's MOntana Grill while we were there. Also Sazon's corn arepas were great. Also if you want to take a hike to Doylestown Jules gluten-free pizza is terrific. I would drive there again for it.You can buy gluten-free items at Dietary Shoppe, she has a nice selection.

Ruth Chris Steakhouse is pricey but good....All the above were knowledegable on gluten-free....

enjoy your stay

      Hi. So sorry to hear about your shingles. There is a lidocaine cream that you can get at Walmart that will help numb the pain.  That's what I used for mine. It can't be put near your eyes or in your ears. I hope your doctor gave you valacyclovir which is an antiviral.  It does lessen the symptoms. If it is in your eyes,  see an ophthalmologist.  They have an antiviral eye drop that can be prescribed.  Shingles in the eye could cause blindness.  I was unsure whether you have celiac or not.  If you do,  follow the diet.  I believe that extra stress on your body does affect everything. Shingles can recur. If you start getting the warning signs of nerves tingling,  see the dr and start taking the valacyclovir to prevent a breakout. If I sound technical,  I am a retired pharmacist.

      You are right to be proactive, as research does indicate that individuals with celiac disease can have a higher predisposition to enamel defects, cavities, and periodontal issues, even with excellent oral hygiene. While many people with celiac successfully undergo orthodontic treatment without complication, your caution is valid. It may be beneficial to seek a consultation with an orthodontist who is familiar with managing patients with autoimmune conditions or who is willing to collaborate with your daughter's gastroenterologist or a periodontist. They can perform a thorough assessment of her current oral health, discuss your specific concerns about recession and decay, and create a tailored hygiene plan. This second opinion could provide a clearer risk-benefit analysis, helping you decide if addressing the cosmetic concern of the lower teeth is worth the potential risks for your daughter, especially if they are not currently affecting function or her confidence.

      This is an older article, but still helpful:

      It's strange because I'm pretty sure not too long ago I picked up a loaf of bread with B vitamins, but I can't find a single one now.  Probably cutbacks, everyone's trying to save money now!
    • Scott Adams
      Eating grains typically depletes certain B vitamins, so I'm not sure why they decided to fortify with calcium and iron, but hopefully we'll see more B vitamin fortification in gluten-free products going forward.
