We found quite a few options while vacationing in Destin/San Destin. Here is my breakdown of where we went.

Bone Fish Grill, near Destin Commons mall (fun mall)

Outback is also in Destin and they did a fine job.

In Baytowne Wharf, San Destin (cute shopping area)

-Another Broken Egg Cafe: Open Original Shared Link (Is also in Destin)

(corresponded with owner/chef beforehand) Has huge menu with lots of omelettes, salads, burgers, fruit etc. They worked with me and it was great! You can really have a lot of options here. Bread is kept in its own area too, as I was told. They do breakfast and lunch each day.

Marlin Grill: nice, upscale restaurant. they worked with me, some meat, veggies options etc. Open Original Shared Link

Sweeties: sorbet, ice cream etc. The sorbet I cked was gluten-free. Just fruit, water, sugar. Be a place to ck on ingredients and find options. Open Original Shared Link

Seaside, FL Visit here if you haven't--new urbanism village on the beach--so cool! restaurants, shopping etc.

Heavenly Shortcakes & Ice Cream: had sorbet that was great. they let me read any ingredients I wanted.

Hilton Hotel & Resort, San Destin

Sandcastles: more casual restaurant, made me a safe meal. Our server had multiple food allergies and didn't eat gluten either!

Barefoots: casual outdoor grill, also does deliver on the beach :) Had a great burger, fruit.

Seagars: very nice restaurant. go here if you are willing to spend a few bucks. only 5 star restaurant in the area. excellent excellent. best steaks of our lives. fabulous service.

**I also worked with Angelia Brown at Hilton who coordinated for me in advance with all the chefs, restaurants...to give them a heads-up. If you want to stay there, ask me for her e-mail and I can pass it along.

Lastly is Beachwalk: Open Original Shared Link We ran out of time and didn't get to dine here, but from my correspondence with the chef, I would definitely recommend. He seemed excited about coming up with some meals. It is a well known restaurant on the beach and seems like they would do a great job.

Hope this helps someone out... PS: October is *the* month to visit this area--beach and town was uncrowded and weather was perfect!

      GI DX celiac despite neg serology and no biopsy

      By trents · Posted

      I tend to agree with RMJ. Your doc took the reasonable and practical approach to diagnosis. All things considered, it was the right way to go. However, if you have first degree relatives that show signs of possible celiac disease, urge them to get formally tested before they start the gluten free diet.

      GI DX celiac despite neg serology and no biopsy

      By RMJ · Posted

      It sounds like you have a very reasonable GI doctor, who diagnosed you based on family history and symptoms after eating gluten. I would consider you lucky! The other option would be to make yourself very sick by doing weeks of a gluten challenge prior to an endoscopy.

      Heat intolerant... Yikes

      By captaincrab55 · Posted

      Hi Colleen H,   I suffered with the pins and needles/burning feeling in my legs and feet for at least  6 years until my Nephrologist figured out that I had to go on a low salt diet.  He said my kidneys weren't strong enough to remove the salt.  The simple fix was a diuretic, but that med leaves the uric acid behind, so that wasn't an option.  On the bright side the low salt diet lowered my BP over 20 points and and the pins and needles/burning feeling went away.  Good Luck and hope this helps.
