Heading to Baltimore for Saturday night - last minute trip.

Need a place to grab dinner that night - and a possibility for breakfast/lunch Sunday morning.

I'll be staying across from Camden Yards - about 3 blocks from Inner Harbor.

Last time I was there I went to the California Pizza Kitchen - where a hot fudge sundae was all they could feed me.

Any suggestions?!

It would only be two of us dining, so small place or large place wouldn't matter........Thanks!

Down there in the inner harbour most places should be able to make something for you (sea food is big) and I know there is an Outback and a Mexican place that have gluten-free menus. Enjoy the city, AmyBeth- it's fabulous.

www.austingrill.com is a Washington DC local chain and has a location in Baltimore. I don't know exactly where it is, but there is info on their webpage. They have a gluten free menu and it is online. They also do brunch on the weekends.

Enjoy :)

I'm not familiar with too many places in the Inner Harbor area, but definitely check out Austin Grill's website. I've been to the one in Bethesda and their food was AWESOME! Then again, I love Mexican food.

Thanks for your advice!

We ended up going to McCormick and Schmick's (sp?) M&S Grill. It's right along the Harbor. The managerial staff was awesome - spoke directly to the chef and TOTALLY made me feel 100% confident that I would be taken care of. Great meal --- shrimp cocktail, salad with balsamic dressing, and scallops in white wine butter sauce. (This was NOT on their menu). The manager assured me that the chef, Adam, was very familiar with food intolerances, and he was right. Not a single problem. The side dishes (veggies) were without sauce and seasoning, so I felt totally safe!

Only problem - was the only dessert they could offer was some ice cream, but I was so full from dinner that wasn't even necessary!

Before I left I asked to speak with the management and thanked them for making me feel secure and relaxed while dining there - they were so appreciative! They gave us free cookbooks on our way out the door.

On Sunday morning, we hit Austin Grill - A short drive from the harbor - and with their own free 3 hour parking. An Outback steakhouse was in the same shopping center.

I ordered the Migas Plate. - it was ok. They have a printed gluten-free menu, and it was helpful with placing my order.

However, my vegetarian friend ordered a dish with refried beans and come to find out they use a pork broth in the beans!!!!!!!!! The black beans were fine, but she was not feeling too well (she doesn't tolerate meat well anymore) and couldn't believe they added meat to the beans. HUH?!!?!?!?

I was pleased (and full!) with my dining experiences in Baltimore!

Glad to hear you had a great dining experience. I was down Inner Harbor in July after John was to see his oncologist at Hopkins. I ddin't have a lot of time to look for something and we ended up getting fries. Hopefully when we go for his next appointment I will find something good.

      My only proof

      By AlwaysLearning · Posted

      We feel your pain. It took me 20+ years of regularly going to doctors desperate for answers only to be told there was nothing wrong with me … when I was 20 pounds underweight, suffering from severe nutritional deficiencies, and in a great deal of pain. I had to figure it out for myself. If you're in the U.S., not having an official diagnosis does mean you can't claim a tax deduction for the extra expense of gluten-free foods. But it can also be a good thing. Pre-existing conditions might be a reason why a health insurance company might reject your application or charge you more money. No official diagnosis means you don't have a pre-existing condition. I really hope you don't live in the U.S. and don't have these challenges. Do you need an official diagnosis for a specific reason? Else, I wouldn't worry about it. As long as you're diligent in remaining gluten free, your body should be healing as much as possible so there isn't much else you could do anyway. And there are plenty of us out here who never got that official diagnosis because we couldn't eat enough gluten to get tested. Now that the IL-2 test is available, I suppose I could take it, but I don't feel the need. Someone else not believing me really isn't my problem as long as I can stay in control of my own food.

      Gluten related ??

      By AlwaysLearning · Posted

      If you're just starting out in being gluten free, I would expect it to take months before you learned enough about hidden sources of gluten before you stopped making major mistakes. Ice cream? Not safe unless they say it is gluten free. Spaghetti sauce? Not safe unless is says gluten-free. Natural ingredients? Who knows what's in there. You pretty much need to cook with whole ingredients yourself to avoid it completely. Most gluten-free products should be safe, but while you're in the hypersensitive phase right after going gluten free, you may notice that when something like a microwave meal seems to not be gluten-free … then you find out that it is produced in a shared facility where it can become contaminated. My reactions were much-more severe after going gluten free. The analogy that I use is that you had a whole army of soldiers waiting for some gluten to attack, and now that you took away their target, when the stragglers from the gluten army accidentally wander onto the battlefield, you still have your entire army going out and attacking them. Expect it to take two years before all of the training facilities that were producing your soldiers have fallen into disrepair and are no longer producing soldiers. But that is two years after you stop accidentally glutening yourself. Every time you do eat gluten, another training facility can be built and more soldiers will be waiting to attack. Good luck figuring things out.

      KAN-101 Treatment for Coeliac Disease

      By Russ H · Posted

      This treatment looks promising. Its aim is to provoke immune tolerance of gluten, possibly curing the disease. It passed the phase 2 trial with flying colours, and I came across a post on Reddit by one of the study volunteers. Apparently, the results were good enough that the company is applying for fast track approval.  Anokion Announces Positive Symptom Data from its Phase 2 Trial Evaluating KAN-101 for the Treatment of Celiac Disease https://www.reddit.com/r/Celiac/comments/1krx2wh/kan_101_trial_put_on_hold/
