My husband was recently diagnosed with celiac disease. We both work full time plus, so we used to get take-out or go out for something simple often. I am adjusting to cooking for him, but it makes for a very long day sometimes! Can you suggest places to eat in the south bay area? We're in Mountain View. Thanks in advance!!!

I am still just a newbie, but I do know that OUTBACK RESTAURANT has a gluten free menu. I personaly do not know of any other, but someone in here will. Is there any OUTBACKS near you? ;)

Thanks Rebecca! Yes, there's an Outback, which he likes, fairly near. I've also just seen a gluten-free menu for PF Changs, which is another favorite. Very cool!!! I know that my husband also needs to learn to ask for himself when we are out, but he's still so new, and embarrassed. I will worry about his ego once we get him fed properly

PF Changs has a gluten-free menu (there's one in Sunnyvale and Palo Alto). Maggiano's usually has gluten-free pasta on hand although no formal gluten-free menu.

Hi Linz. I live about 1 1/2 hrs away from San Francisco. But I go there a lot to see ballets & stuff. So I was wondering if you could message me about the places there. Thanks!

      Celiac disease is the most likely cause, but here are articles about the other possible causes:

      Hi @Atl222 As @trents points out, there could be many reasons for this biopsy result.  I am interested to know, is your gastroenterologist concerned?  Also, are your blood tests showing steady improvement over the years? I remember when I had my last biopsy, several years after diagnosis, mine came back with with raised lymphocytes but no villous damage, too! In my own case, my consultant wasn't remotely concerned - in fact, he said I might still get this result even if all I ever did was eat nothing but rice and water.   My coeliac blood tests were still steadily improving, albeit slowly, which was reassuring.

      Welcome to the celiac.com community, @Atl222! Yes, your increased lymphocytes could be in response to oats or it could possibly be cross contamination from gluten that is getting into your diet from some unexpected source but not enough to damage the villi. And I'm certain that increased lymphocytes can be caused by other things besides celiac disease or gluten/oats exposure. See attachment. But you might try eliminating oats to start with and possibly dairy for a few months and then seek another endoscopy/biopsy to see if there was a reduction in lymphocyte counts.

      This is a solid, well-reasoned approach. You’re right that “koji” by itself doesn’t indicate gluten status, and the risk really does come down to which grain is used to culture it. The fact that you directly contacted Eden Foods and received a clear statement that their koji is made from rice only, with no wheat or barley, is meaningful due diligence—especially since Eden has a long-standing reputation for transparency. While the lack of gluten labeling can understandably give pause, manufacturer confirmation like this is often what people rely on for traditionally fermented products. As always, trusting your body after trying it is reasonable, but based on the information you gathered, your conclusion makes sense.
