Hello

I got this email from the celiac listserv and though people may be interested. i love in boston so its sort of far for me but i do want to go...

Dear All,

On Nov. 5, you will have an opportunity to eat GLUTEN FREE pizza at the

Boynton Restaurant in Worcester, MA. And salad with GLUTEN FREE dressing. And

GLUTEN FREE BEER if you so choose. And GLUTEN FREE triple chocolate cake for

dessert made by a local pastry chef who is very aware of cross contamination!

Your support on that day is extremely important - this is a trial run - if there

is enough interest, this will happen again and again. Please do everything you

can do to come to the Boynton that day - bring friends and family - and help

establish what we hope will be a regular occurence in central Massachusetts.

There is an rsvp at the bottom of the flyer. Please make sure to respond and

guarantee your place, as it is by reservation only.

I've tasted this pizza and it is fantastic. The crust is perfect, the toppings

are fabulous. And wait till you see the dessert. You'll flip your lid when you

realize that we can eat like this, safely at a local restaurant!!!

Hope to see you there.

Best regards,

Ellen Allard

P.S. I have absolutely no financial gain in this - it's been almost a year

since my Celiac diagnosis and though I've tried a lot of the commercially

prepared gluten free pizzas, none of them even come close to the one you'll eat

at the Boynton! I've tasted it and it is fantastic!

Thanks for sharing, that's pretty close to me & I'd like to go. I think I'll call to see if the crust is egg and dairy free, too.

Do you have any more info? What is the RSVP they are talking about?

Sweet thanks!

I'll check back. I hope a lot of people come out, it could encourage them to do gluten-free more often (or. . *gasp* permanently!)

thanks for posting all this wonderful info!

I called to make a reservation but Rick was busy. Hopefully he'll call back soon.

My hubby and I are game for 6 so long as there is a.) space and b.) egg free crust/dairy free options.

If so. . .I can't wait!!!

bummer :( There is milk powder in the dough. If they change the recipe and remove the milk, I would be getting pizza like 3 times a week. I have been on withdrawl. I live so close! Aaaargh. Yet. . .so far.

I hope everyone going to The Boynton has a kick ass time and eats a lot of PIZZA!!!!

WOW WOW WOW!!!!!

The pizza was delicious!!! I had a huge smile on my face the whole time I was eating it. They served Bard's Tale beer at the bar...can't believe I went to a Bar and ordered a beer!!!

You looked around you and there was a Bard's Tale at every other table. It was wonderful!!!

They might keep the gluten free pizza on their menu. It's very very very clsoe to my work...I can just pick it up on my way home. You can also " Take and Bake" !!

Well, I sure do hope they keep it going. I even heard from people I met that there's a chinese restaurant in Worcester that has a Gluten free menu. I am suppose to receive an email with that info.

Well, I'm certainly gonna keep an ear out for when this happens again. Thanks for the info Jess.

Jess, did you go? I didn't find you. There was a girl I though might be you until she ordered a huge bowl of pasta..hahah

I was sitting at the bar the whole night, way at the end against the wall.

hey there

we got there at six and they told us there was an hour wait which was kind of annoying. i was looking for you in line but wasnt really sure what you looked like :)

anyways we saw there was a seat at the bar so we just ate there- pizza was very good and it was nice to eat out since i dont go to restaurants usually cause i get so nervous about cc. i took two home to bake anothe rday. it took us an hour to get there but we would go again if they made it a regular thing! maybe we can meet up next time!

I'm glad to hear the pizza was top notch!

francelajoie: The restaurant in Worcester you may be refering to is Nancy Chang's; there is a menu online Open Original Shared Link. Woot. gluten free is on there home page, rock on!

Maybe we could meet up there sometime, then take a road trip to Boston because there are quite a few gluten-free friendly places to hangout at there.

      M&M Peanuts. About the same calories and sugar while M&M Peanuts have fiber, potassium, iron and protein that Tootsie Rolls ("We are currently producing more than 50 million Tootsie Rolls each day.") don't.

      I see it everyday on my feeds. They go out and buy gluten-free processed products and wonder why they can't heal their guts. I don't think they take it as a serious immune disease. They pick up things off the internet which is so far out in left field. Some days I would just like to scream. So much better when we had support groups and being able to teach...

Some days I just want to call the news media and just call out these doctors especially when they are supposed to be specialist Downplaying when gluten-free when they should know gluten-free is false negative. Now dealing with other issues and still crickets for disability because I show no signs of celiac BECAUSE IM GLUTENFREE! Actively dealing with sibo and skin issues.Depression is the key because thats all they know, im depressed because medical has caused it because of my celiac and related issues. I should have never ever been employed as a bus driver.After 3 years still healing and ZERO income desperately trying to get better but no careteam for celiac other than stay away frim wheat! Now im having care because my head is affected either ms or meningioma in go in tomorrow again for more scans.I know im slowly dying and im looking like a disability chaser

While I get heartburn at night from commercial dairy milk, I do not from 'grassmilk'.

They pick up things off the internet which is so far out in left field.  Some days I would just like to scream.  So much better when we had support groups and being able to teach them properly. I just had an EMA blood test because I haven't had one since my Doctor moved away.  Got test results today, doctor ordered a D3 vitamin test.  Now you know what  type of doctors we have.  Now I will have to pay for this test because she just tested my D3 end of December, and still have no idea about my EMA.
