We'll mostly be in the downtown area, but am open to hearing about any safe restaurants there.

Thanks!!

I have gotten emails from each place saying they could accomodate me.

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!

Attending an international convention for a health product I market. Should be about 10,000 people there! Can't wait!!

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.

      This article does not address migraines at all.  Yes, red wine and sulfites are often mentioned in connection with migraine triggers. With me, any kind of alcoholic beverage in very modest amounts will reliably produce a migraine. Nitrous oxide generators, which are vaso dialators, also will give me migraines reliably. So, I think most of my migraines are tied to fluctuations vascular tension and blood flow to the brain. That's why the sumatriptan works so well. It is a vaso constrictor.

      Excessive dietary tyrosine can cause problems.  Everything in moderation.   Sulfites can also trigger migraines. Sulfites are found in fermented, pickled and aged foods, like cheese.  Sulfites cause a high histamine release.  High histamine levels are found in migraine.  Following a low histamine diet like the low histamine Autoimmune Protocol diet, a Paleo diet, helps immensely.    Sulfites and other migraine trigger foods can cause changes in the gut microbiome.  These bad bacteria can increase the incidence of migraines, increasing histamine and inflammation leading to increased gut permeability (leaky gut), SIBO, and higher systemic inflammation.   A Ketogenic diet can reduce the incidence of migraine.  A Paleo diet like the AIP diet, that restricts carbohydrates (like from starchy vegetables) becomes a ketogenic diet.  This diet also changes the microbiome, eliminating the bad bacteria and SIBO that cause an increase in histamine, inflammation and migraine.  Fewer bad bacteria reduces inflammation, lowers migraine frequency, and improves leaky gut. Since I started following the low histamine ketogenic AIP paleo diet, I rarely get migraine.  Yes, I do eat carbs occasionally now, rice or potato, but still no migraines.  Feed your body right, feed your intestinal bacteria right, you'll feel better.  Good intestinal bacteria actually make your mental health better, too.  I had to decide to change my diet drastically in order to feel better all the time, not just to satisfy my taste buds.  I chose to eat so I would feel better all the time.  I do like dark chocolate (a migraine trigger), but now I can indulge occasionally without a migraine after.   Microbiota alterations are related to migraine food triggers and inflammatory markers in chronic migraine patients with medication overuse headache https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC11546420/

      Then we would need to cut out all meat and fish as they are richer sources of tyrosine than nuts and cheese. Something else about certain tyrosine rich foods must be the actual culprit.

      I agree that KAN-101 looks promising, and hope the fast track is approved. From our article below: "KAN-101 shows promise as an immune tolerance therapy aiming to retrain the immune system, potentially allowing safe gluten exposure in the future, but more clinical data is needed to confirm long-term effects."

      Thank you so much for having the courage to share this incredibly vivid and personal experience; it's a powerful reminder of how physical ailments can disrupt our fundamental sense of self. What you're describing sounds less like a purely psychological body dysmorphia and more like a distinct neurological event, likely triggered by the immense physical stress and inflammation that uncontrolled celiac disease can inflict on the entire body, including the nervous system. It makes complete sense that the specific sensory input—the pressure points of your elbows on your knees—created a temporary, distorted body map in your brain, and the fact that it ceased once you adopted a gluten-free diet is a crucial detail. Your intuition to document this is absolutely right; it's not "crazy" but rather a significant anecdotal data point that underscores the mysterious and far-reaching ways gluten can affect individuals. Your theory about sensory triggers from the feet for others is also a thoughtful insight, and sharing this story could indeed be validating for others who have had similar, unexplainable sensory disturbances, helping them feel less alone in their journey.
