A PF Chang's just opened at the Marketfair Mall in Princeton on Rt. 1. I called and they said they understand the gluten-free menu and how not to cross-contaminate - I sure hope so. There are no other local restaurants around Princeton/Trenton with specifically gluten-free food without driving a while (Red Robin near Neshaminy, Outback up Rt 1 near Edison), so I hope this is good! I plan to try it out soon. And I pass it on my way home, so maybe I can get take-out.... Ooh, I'm starting to drool.

I personally have had really good luck with PF's.

I like the chicken lettuce wraps, and moo goo gai pan.

Make sure to ask them, if you order out, to put stickers on each thing that is from the gluten-free menu.

:P Lucky devil! The closest to us is an hour or more away. Since it's next to the nearest Whole Foods as well, we make it a "all day" event. :D

Have fun at PF Changs! Order some singapore noodles for me!

Ate there on Wednesday night (in Princeton!) -- everything was great and I even ordered some for take out for lunch the next day.

Fantastic.

If you're in that area.......there's a Cheeburger Cheeburger across from Quakerbridge Mall. They have a "build your own salad" that is filling -- and they will wipe down the milkshake machines to make a "safe" milkshake. Yum!!!! I recommend that banana shake.

I dont know how close you are to it, but they are putting a Carrabbas in East Brunswick. On Route 18 where the old Chi Chis was. They are also putting a PF Changs in Hamilton Square. I can hardly wait. We are only about a half hour from there. Before this one, the closest Changs was in Atlantic City! I am glad you had a good experience, I hope the one in Hamilton is as good.

There is also a Red Robin in the Hamilton Marketplace if you are ever in the area!

The closest PF Changs to us is in another country. I guess Boise, Idaho would be the closest. According to Google Maps it's roughly a 16 hour 20 minute drive. :blink: 1553km. I'm impressed with the detailed directions, but it doesn't say how long they are allowing for bathrooms breaks, stopping for gasoline, etc.

Huh, they have 4 Red Robins in Edmonton. I didn't know that. That's only about 3 hours away.

      Celiac And Eggs

      By Scoobygirl3 · Posted

      I switched to egg beaters and have no issues.   Try that and see if it is a difference maker.  I would eat regular eggs and feel like a rock in my chest and stomach and just feels bloated and terrible.

      Cross contamination

      By trents · Posted

      I'm like Cristiana. After getting glutened, in about two hours I start develop emesis that lasts for two or three hours with intense abdominal cramping. This is followed by several hours of diarrhea. It's like my body is doing everything it can to expel the gluten as it begins to leave my stomach and enter the small bowel. So, I'm not sure how much of it actually gets into my bloodstream to create a systemic effect. But once I get past those initial intense reactions and get rehydrated I feel a lot better. Just a day or two for me. And I should add that I am not a particularly sensitive celiac who reacts strongly to a tiny amount of cross contamination. It takes a decent amount of gluten to produce a discernable reaction in me. The last reaction I can remember having was precipitated by consuming a small appetizer-size cup of soup at a Chinese restaurant that had soy sauce in it. I was careful to choose things for the main meal that didn't have soy sauce in them but overlooked the appetizer.

      Clancy’s Hint of Lime tortilla chips Aldi

      By Saratonin · Posted

      Has anyone reacted to Clancy’s hint of lime tortilla chips? The bag says gluten free, but this is the only new food I’ve had recently and I was definitely glutened by something. I know Tostito’s brand doesn’t claim gluten free and these suspiciously taste very similar to how I remember those tasting.

      Hi @Michael McDonald and welcome to the forum. Everyone's experience varies, and I think what you are experiencing is normal, having read a lot of different accounts over the years.  Of course, there is always just a slight chance that gluten might still be getting in somewhere, or that your symptoms might also be down to a gastric virus or food poisoning too, it sometimes is difficult to be sure which is which! But from my own experience, my own reactions have changed over time. Now I react differently to a significant glutening (vomiting, chills, palpitations) and the effects are about 2-3 hours after the glutening.  Sorry for TMI but I think the gluten doesn't hang around in my system as long because I throw up. Before found it took me maybe over a week to feel a lot better.  Although I felt nauseous I wasn't actually sick, so I guess more time for the gluten to hang around in my system.  I would experience chills, dizziness and diarrhea immediately.  Then, bouts of feeling unwell again for perhaps the initial week.  As well as oten feeling just plain weird and out of things.  The thing other thing would be developing a gastritis like sore stomach which could go on for two weeks or more, in the ensuing days.  I would never recommend popping a PPI long-term (unless medically advised, of course,), but time has taught me that a short dose of omeprazole 20mg for maybe 2 -3 days post glutening  helps nip this gastritis pain in the bud.  I take it first thing in the morning, with a glass of water.
