Pf Chang's Now Open In Princeton Nj

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!

Let me know how it goes--I'm not far from there :)

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.

      Please can anyone help. I was diagnosed on 23rd December and I am trying my best to get my head around all the things to look out for. I have read that yeast extract is not to be eaten by coeliacs. Why? And is this all yeast extract. Or is this information wrong. Thanks.

      Welcome to the celiac.com community, @Seabeemee! The fact that the genetic testing shows you do not have either of the two genes associated with the potential to develop celiac disease (HlA DQ2 and HLA DQ8) pretty much ensures that you do not have celiac disease and the biopsy of the small bowel showing "normal villous architecture" confirms this. But you could have NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity) which would not damage the villous architecture. You could also have SIBO (Small Intestine Bacterial Overgrowth) or H. Pylori infection. And with your resection of the small bowel, that could be causing it's own problems like you describe. When was that surgery done?

      My Doctor messaged me that I have no sign of Celiac disease so until I meet with her next week I don’t know what the labs mean. I am being evaluated by my new GI for Celiac disease because of digestive issues (bloating, distention, fullness in mid section, diarrhea).  I also have been diagnosed with GERD and some associated issues hence the endoscopy. I also was diagnosed with NAFLD after an abdominal CT scan in December - which surprises me because I gave up alcohol 5 years ago, workout 5 days a week, cardio / weights and cook from scratch every night. Anecdotally,  I do feel better when I do not eat a lot of carbs and have been staying away from gluten 95% of the time until my follow up.  History: I had an emergency bowel obstruction operation in August 2021 for a double closed loop obstruction, open surgery removed 40 cm of my small intestine, my appendix, cecal valve and illeocectomy. Beside the fact that this put me in the situation of no longer being able to absorb Vitamin B12  from my diet and having to  inject Vit B 12 2x a month, I also became Iron deficient and am on EOD iron to keep my levels high enough to support my Vitamin B12 injections, as well as daily folic acid. I tested positive for pernicious anemia in 2022 but most recently that same test came back negative. Negative Intrinsic Factor. My results from the biopsies showed 2nd part of Duodenum, small bowel Mildly patch increased intraepithelial lymphocytes with intact villious architecture. Comment: Duodenal biopsies with normal villous architecture and increased intrepithelial lymphocytes (Marsh I lesion) are found in 1-3% of patients undergoing duodenal biopsy, and an association with celiac disease is well established however the specificity remains low. Similar histologic findings may be seen in H pylori gastritis, NSAID and other medication use including olmesartan, bacterial overgrowth, tropical sprue and certain autoimmune disorders. So my GI ordered Labs for Celiac confirmation: Sorry I couldn’t upload a photo or pdf so typed below: TEST NAME                               IN RANGE and/or RESULTS RESULTS:  IMMUNOGLOBULIN A :           110 GLIADIN (DEAMIDATED) AB (IGG, IGA)                            <1.0 GLIADIN (DEAMIDATED) AB (IGA)                                     <1.0 GLIADIN (DEAMIDATED) AB (IGG)                                    <1.0 TISSUE TRANSGLUTAMINASE ANTIBODY, IGG, IGA TISSUE TRANSGLUTAMINASE AB, IGG                                     <1.0 TISSUE TRANSGLUTAMINASE AB, IGA                                     <1.0 INTERPRETATION: <15.0 ANTIBODY NOT DETECTED  > OR = 15.0 ANTIBODY DETECTED RESULTS: HLA TYPING FOR CELIAC DISEASE INTERPRETATION (note The patient does not have the HLA-DQ associated with celiac disease variants) More than 97% of celiac patients carry either HLA-DQ2 (DQA1*05/DQB1*02) or HLA-DQ8 (DQA1*03/DQB1*0302) or both. Genetic counseling as needed. HLA DQ2 : NEGATIVE HLA D08: NEGATIVE HLA VARIANTS DETECTED: HLA DA1* : 01 HLA DA1* : 05 HLA DQB1*: 0301 HLA DQB1*: 0501 RESULTS REVIEWED BY: Benjamin A Hilton, Ph.D., FACMG I appreciate any input, thank you.

      Let me hasten to add that if you will be undergoing an endoscopy/biopsy, it is critical that you do not begin efforts to reduce gluten beforehand. Doing so will render the results invalid as it will allow the small bowel lining to heal and, therefore, obscure the damage done by celiac disease which is what the biopsy is looking for.
