Thanks!!

Check out the website Open Original Shared Link. They have a link that lists local restaurants with gluten-free menus. Cold Stone Creamery is very good about making sure your ice cream is clean (they'll remove top layers/get out a new (clean) stone to mix it on, etc.) I think that Rodizio Grill in SLC also has a gluten-free menu that they'll give you if you call them. (But it's not on the gfutah list . . . .) I'm pretty sure that when the GIG conference was here this summer, they went to eat at Rodizio (it's VERY VERY good . . . it's a Brazilian BBQ place - lots of meat, though) but I'm not sure. Maybe someone else who went could tell you.

Hope you have fun while you're here! There's a store in Taylorsville (an 8 minute drive South on the I-15 freeway) called Against the Grain that only carries gluten-free foods . . . you might check it out.

What are you going to be doing while you're here?

Some of the best restaurants I've been to around here are Carrabas, Outback and the Spaghetti Factory (don't know if the ones in SLC have gluten-free pasta, but the one in Orem does). Outback has a gluten-free menu on their website, I'd check it out before you come. Don't get the ceasar salad though! Wingers is another one that is supposed to be coming out with a gluten-free menu, but I'd look on the gfutah site for info on that before going in. PF Changs is also good as is Chili's. Macaroni Grill will sub out pasta for mashed potatoes or veggies if you get something grilled. Their salmon and steaks are great!! I even brought in my own gluten-free bread once and they served me "bruschetta" by topping my bread with the veggies! It was great!

As always, just make sure you communicate with the servers. There's lots of good places to eat downtown :)

Good luck!

Thanks, everybody. I'll print this out.

There's also a PF Chang's downtown and a Ruby Chris's Steakhouse downtown. (That Ruby Chris's is in the Triumph Dining book. I haven't gone there (yet!) but it looks like they even have gluten-free dessert!)

If you'll be at the Salt Palace or the Delta Center, it's practically around the corner. So is Z'Tejas and Thaifoon if you go there.

We moved to SLC about 2 months ago. We haven't been to very many restaurants but my son (who is the only Celiac in the family) really likes Spaghetti Mama's because he can have gluten free pasta there.

congratulations on being able to come to the best place ever! just kidding, i'm a little biased since i live here in slc.

anyway i wanted to mention to you if you're going to be in the downtown area, you might want to check out The Roof Restaurant located in the Joseph Smith Memorial Building. it is a wonderful all you can eat buffet. you will have to call to make reservations, just google it or "Temple Square Hospitality Corporation" and it will come up. let them know you have gluten intollerance so you can get something good for desert like ice cream because they usually have a lot of gluten items. It's a buffet, and is kind of pricey, but well worth it and the view of Temple Square is marvelous for tourists. They serve prime rib and honey baked ham every night, shrimp, sometimes salmon, salad though i'm not sure about the dressings, and have great mashed potatoes and I think those are okay.

I know I sound like an add for them, but it's great.

Another great place to go is the Old Spaghetti Factory in Taylorsville. Like someone said there is the Against the Grain there too.

They have WildOats downtown... It's on 400 South and 700 East in that shopping center. You can get to it via the University Trax Trolley Square drop-off. There's also a Chili's on 400 South too.

Another great place to go just for restaraunts is 300 South. I think Buca de Bepa's has gluten free stuff but I'm not positive. In the gateway there are a lot of restaurants too like Thaifoon (sp?). The closest Outback is either in American Fork or Bountiful which are both kind of out of the way, so I wouldn't suggest that. Beware of Rumbi Island Grill! I used to work there, the food is FABULOUS but there are probably lots of cc issues because it's fast food and they use a lot of Teriaki/Jerk sauce with their bowls. Rodizio's is sooooooo good. It is located in the top of the trolley square shopping center and Betsy's right, you do get lots of meat. But it's also an all you can eat kind of deal, and a salad if I'm remembering correctly.

Most of the places in downtown have restaraunts in them, I know Raddisson does and Little America does too.

Maybe the place you're staying will too?

If you'd like any more information on anything in SLC, please feel free to pm me and I'll try to take care of you!

We hope you have a good time while you're here! If you have time to ski, it certainly looks like there out to be enough snow by then :D Alta Ski Resort got 11 inches a couple of days ago!

And there are local grocery stores (the Macey's stores) that do cooking classes all the time, and they do gluten-free classes once a month or so (but it depends on the store . . . I've heard they do them pretty often in Ogden and at least once a month in the Provo/Orem area, but I'm not sure how often they do them in the main SLC area). So if you want to go to one of those, let me know when you'll be here and I'll find out whether there will be one while you're here.

Anytime! That would be great. I have school at night so probably can't "assist" you in eating DARN!

Tell us more about your conference. It sounds exciting.

Well, I'd have to PM you about that. I don't think it's allowed here.

      Get tested for vitamin deficiencies. Though neuropathy can be a symptom of celiac, it can also be caused by deficiencies due to poor digestion caused by celiac and could be easier to treat.

      If you're just starting out in being gluten free, I would expect it to take months before you learned enough about hidden sources of gluten before you stopped making major mistakes. Ice cream? Not safe unless they say it is gluten free. Spaghetti sauce? Not safe unless is says gluten-free. Natural ingredients? Who knows what's in there. You pretty much...

      We feel your pain. It took me 20+ years of regularly going to doctors desperate for answers only to be told there was nothing wrong with me … when I was 20 pounds underweight, suffering from severe nutritional deficiencies, and in a great deal of pain. I had to figure it out for myself. If you're in the U.S., not having an official diagnosis does mean you can't claim a tax deduction for the extra expense of gluten-free foods. But it can also be a good thing. Pre-existing conditions might be a reason why a health insurance company might reject your application or charge you more money. No official diagnosis means you don't have a pre-existing condition. I really hope you don't live in the U.S. and don't have these challenges. Do you need an official diagnosis for a specific reason? Else, I wouldn't worry about it. As long as you're diligent in remaining gluten free, your body should be healing as much as possible so there isn't much else you could do anyway. And there are plenty of us out here who never got that official diagnosis because we couldn't eat enough gluten to get tested. Now that the IL-2 test is available, I suppose I could take it, but I don't feel the need. Someone else not believing me really isn't my problem as long as I can stay in control of my own food.

      If you're just starting out in being gluten free, I would expect it to take months before you learned enough about hidden sources of gluten before you stopped making major mistakes. Ice cream? Not safe unless they say it is gluten free. Spaghetti sauce? Not safe unless is says gluten-free. Natural ingredients? Who knows what's in there. You pretty much need to cook with whole ingredients yourself to avoid it completely. Most gluten-free products should be safe, but while you're in the hypersensitive phase right after going gluten free, you may notice that when something like a microwave meal seems to not be gluten-free … then you find out that it is produced in a shared facility where it can become contaminated. My reactions were much-more severe after going gluten free. The analogy that I use is that you had a whole army of soldiers waiting for some gluten to attack, and now that you took away their target, when the stragglers from the gluten army accidentally wander onto the battlefield, you still have your entire army going out and attacking them. Expect it to take two years before all of the training facilities that were producing your soldiers have fallen into disrepair and are no longer producing soldiers. But that is two years after you stop accidentally glutening yourself. Every time you do eat gluten, another training facility can be built and more soldiers will be waiting to attack. Good luck figuring things out.
