Bronco's Trip To Seattle

Ok,

So my first trip to Seattle was 2 weeks ago. Let me start by saying that Seattle is soooo green and beautiful and has lots of clean air and is soooo green and WOW!

I was sort of suprised at the amount of traffic up there, but as long as you get to where you are going and stay there for a few hours at each location, it is fine.

I made the trek to Da Vinci's gluten free bakery. (Da Vinci Bakery and Cafe. 10003 Greenwood Ave N. Seattle, WA Phone: 206-782-5735).

Its a small little place that looks like a converted old house (but quaint -LOL)

anyway, they have a sidewalk that leads up to the place (and a parking lot/driveway). You go through a screen door and there are random tables with newspapers on them already on the left. On the right is a decorated wall that leads out. Keep going straight and on the right and left are little ledges with gluten free goodies wrapped in them.

On the left past the table is a barista bar (fancy term for coffee bar) and more gluten free cookies. In the back, is a freezer/refrigerator that has more food. On the wall and next to the counter are menus (both large and small) which tell you what is available. In addition, next to the cash register are fresh rolls, muffins and panini sandiches (all gluten-free) which are available for immediate consumption.

My two non-celiac friends and I decide to give the Bacon-Cheese-Breakfast-Paninis a shot. (Note, when you order them they take them out and put them in a George Foreman Grill and bring them to the table piping hot - yummy, but a Foreman Grill? LOL)

Having said that, they were really good. Having said that, I was hungover from a night out in Bell-town, but they were still really tasty. I also had a triple vanilla latte which hit the spot (they have soy options for the lactose folk).

On the way out, I bought some Fresh Foccacia bread, some more of thos panini rolls and some "Death by Chocolate" cookies...

I ate everything in 3 days - LOL

anyway, I recommend the rolls, muffins, panini bread and foccacia. They are dense (as most gluten-free stuff is), but they have this incredible butter-taste that makes breakfast sandwiches seem so yummy!

I would go back and I will order more...

p.s. Pike Market and the Chateau St. Michelle Winery were also fun!

p.p.s. The folks in Seattle reminded me of the Midwest -- very nice, polite and horrible drivers...

p.p.p.s. Tomorrow, I am going to Austin, Texas for the OSU game. Go Buckeyes!!!!

As an Austin citizen, I'd like to warn you about the traffic. And the fans. I don't have any intention of leaving my house tomorrow, too dangerous! :blink:

Make sure you go to 6th street!

Maybe I'll wear my red BEAT TEXAS shirt and see what happens ;)

I recommend Toulouse (sp.) if it's still there .... I loved it when I was in college -- the drinking age in Texas was 19 back then.

      Thought was finished with this but a friend just sent email saying she takes Tirosin liquid levothyroxine which has no fillers (mentioned by Pgetha above).  Friend's doc sends script to one of Tirosin's direct-mail pharmacies.  Looking that up, government insurance (Medicare/Medicaid) doesn't cover (as Pgetha wrote above).  But if use one of their direct-mail places three month supply is $57/month.  Researching that, happened to learn Yaral also makes a generic gluten-free levothyroxine.

      Lysine is helpful for "cold sores" (oral herpes).

      @Wheatwacked, Are you aware of the interaction of potassium iodide and losartan ?   https://www.drugs.com/drug-interactions/iodine-potassium-iodide-with-losartan-1368-0-1489-0.html#:~:text=Talk to your doctor before,to safely use both medications.

      As a life.long celiac, I understand this.  I simply ask that the medical profession stop disregarding the fact that it should remain a concern for some. It cost me a lot of medical discomforts.

      @dmallbee, about 8% of celiacs react to the oat protein avenin like they do to the wheat protein gluten. In addition, there are some cultivars of oats that apparently do actually contain gluten.
