Gluten Free Restaurants In Western Ny?


Need new guts

Need new guts Rookie

Anyone know of restaurants w/ Gluten-Free menus in western new york? I'm heading home to my small town of Olean, NY, about an hour south of Buffalo, and am pretty new to dealing with celiac so I've never thought about it before when I'm there. It's a pretty small town, so there aren't many chain restaurants, but I'm looking for anything w/in a reasonable radius (30-45 mins.)

Thanks.

Josh

There is a great web site called glutenfreerestaurants.com

They list all the gluten-free restaurants in the US. Good luck.

Thanks. I've checked it, but everything in NY is in or around the city, I'm gonna be in the sticks of western ny....or as we like to think of ourselves...the armpit of NY.

I've had good luck at the old library... they don't have a "gluten-free menu" but they know what I'm talking about when I say no wheat/flour. The hot bacon dressing on the spinach salad is excellent (w/o croutons, of course). I usually get the porkchop with a baked potato, but have had good luck with the steak (just have them check on the seasonings for you) and one time they even made me a flour-free version of the chicken with pesto sauce (they were really slow that night).

We've had such good luck there we really haven't tried other places... except beef and barrel once when I had a plain salad (no dressing) with plain beef on top (safe, but boring).

I've heard there is a smokey bones all the way in buffalo (and even a place that does gluten-free pizzas on wednesdays only, called the pizza plant - I've never been, but if you find yourself there it might be worth a try), and you can check the outback website... but I think the closest one is about 45 min away.

(oh, and tops sells tinkyada and a few other gluten-free things near the end of an aisle up in the front of the store, just ask someone to point you in the right direction!)

That's awesome. I'm going to both of those out.

Thanks to you and the previous poster for the info.

      Yes.  Now, if you hit your finger with a hammer once, wouldn't you do your best not to do it again?  You have identified a direct connection between gluten and pain.  Gluten is your hammer.  Now you have to decide if you need a medical diagnosis.  Some countries have aid benefits tgat you can get if you have the diagnosis, but you must continue eating a gluten-normal diet while pursuing the diagnosis. Otherwise the only reason to continue eating gluten is social. There are over 200 symptoms that could be a result of celiac disease.. Celiac Disease and Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity  both cause multiple vitamin and mineral deficiency.  Dealing with that should help your recovery, even while eating gluten.  Phosphatidyl Choline supplements can help your gut if digesting fats is a problem,  Consider that any medications you take could be causing some of the symptoms, aside from gluten.

      Welcome to the forum, @Ben98! If you have been consciously or unconsciously avoiding gluten because of the discomfort it produces then it is likely that your blood antibody testing for celiac disease has been rendered invalid. Valid testing requires regular consumption of generous amounts of gluten. The other strong possibility is that you have NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity) which shares many of the same symptoms with celiac disease but does not have the autoimmune component and thus does not damage the small bowel lining. It is 10x mor common than celiac disease. There is currently no test for NCGS. Celiac disease must first be ruled out. Some experts in the field believe it can be a precursor to the development of celiac disease. Having one or both of the primary genes for developing celiac disease does not imply that you will develop active celiac disease. It simply establishes the potential for it. About 40% of the population has the genetic potential but only about 1% develop active celiac disease.

      TTG blood test and total IGA tested on many occasions which have always remained normal, upper GI pain under my ribs since 2022. I had an endoscopy in 2023 which showed moderate gastritis. no biopsy’s were taken unfortunately. genetic test was positive for HLADQ2. extreme bloating after eating gluten, it’ll feel like I’ve got bricks in my stomach so uncomfortably full. the pain is like a dull ache under the upper left almost like a stitch feeling after a long walk. I am just wanting some advice has anyone here experienced gastritis with a gluten issue before? thank you

      "Conclusions: The urinary iodine level was significantly lower in women with postmenopausal osteoporosis, and iodine replacement may be important in preventing osteoporosis"  Body iodine status in women with postmenopausal osteoporosis Low iodine can cause thyroid problems, but Iodine deficiency will not show up in thyroid tests.  Iodine is important for healing, its job is to kill off defective and aging cells (Apoptosis). Skin, brain fog, nails, muscle tone all inproved when I started taking 600 mcg (RDA 150 - 1000 mcg) of Liquid Iodine drops. Some with dermatitis herpetiformis, Iodine exacerbates the rash.  I started at 1 drop (50 mcg) and worked up to 12 drops, but I don't have dermatitis herpetiformis.
