Salt Lake Restaurants - The Good And The Bad

Let's talk about restaurants in Salt Lake area, both celiac friendly and unfriendly...

THE GOOD:

Rodizio's Grill - Excellent service, gluten-free menu available. Manager even approched me and told me that I can't have pork (it was on gluten-free menu) because they added an ingridient that had gluten in it. Food was delicious - carnivore's heaven. Google Rodizios for more info, they are online.

Mazza - Middle Eastern Restaurant (15th S, 15th E). gluten-free menu available. Tasty food. Aware staff. Strongly recommend this little restaurant. (They are moving to 9th S and 9th E location - not sure when). Google them, they are online.

THE BAD:

Bombay House in Salt Lake was the worst last week. Before going there, my date ("restaurant industry insider") made a phone call and talked to the manager about gluten. We were told that the majority of the food is gluten free and that we should not worry. When we got there, the waiter was rude, didn't answer my question and didn't seem to care at all. Finally, I spoke with someone else. The other person, not sure what his title is, was just as unresponsive. In the end, I ordered chicken curry and hoped that I don't get glutened. I'm not going again. This experience was not pleasent to say the least.

I've heard good things about Rodizio's :D yet to try it though. Another great place, don't know if they have it up in SLC (I'm down in Orem) is Carrabba's italian food, so good, so friendly and they even have a gluten-free menu! Also, if you have the chance to hit up Los Hermanos in Provo or AF, do, cuz they're awesome! My husband's friend works there and informed me that the steak fajitas are gluten-free. Those are my fave! Great drinks, chips and salsa too!

Don't forget Biaggi's in downtown SLC. My wife and I were visiting SLC, and the staff and gluten free options were great.

      As my doctor said, you don't have to eat breakfast food for breakfast.  I may have a leftover piece of chicken and left over squash or eggs or I am actually more likely to skip breakfast as I do intermittent fasting.  In that case I eat lunch around 11:30 and have some guacamole and a salad with chicken or tuna.  For dinner I have pork, shrimp, chicken, lamb, or turkey with half a baked sweet potato and some broccoli, green beans, beets, carrots or cauliflower.  I do not eat any grains on the advice of my doctor.  I do not eat commercially processed products, even if they say they are gluten-free.  I make Warrior Bread every few weeks.  It has no yeast and contains almond flour and dried sweet potato.  Very tasty too.  A good book to help in this regard is No Grain, No Pain by Peter Osborne.  Thankfully, I can eat coconut and nuts and use those flours in baking and also use nut milks in cooking.  Since I am allergic to chocolate and vanilla, lemon is my go to flavor for something sweet.  My migraines totally disappeared once I went gluten and casein free.  I can occasionally eat certain high fat cheeses that are low in casein, as well as grass fed butter.  I use lots of Organic Olive and Avocado oil. The problems I thought I had with nightshades went away when I went fully organic.  And, the rest of my issues went away by avoiding the foods I tested positive to as well as avoiding all grains. I will be the first one to say that it is a very expensive way of eating, but thankfully we can afford to eat that way.  The good news is that I take no prescription meds at age 72.  At 54 before diagnosis, I was a mess and on a boatload of pharmaceuticals.

      With that many foods removed from your diet, what do you eat?  I also have histamine issues and migraines so that takes out certain trigger foods and high histamine vegetables.  Have allergies to coconut and issues with nuts so those are out.  I'm beginning to think I may have to remove dairy and some of the grains beyond wheat to get allergies under control.  Just having so many issues figuring out what to make at meal times.  What's a typical breakfast look like for you?  Thanks.

      @Healthforme, No prescription needed for thiamine hydrochloride, Benfotiamine, and TTFD (Tetrahydrofurfuryl Disulfide).  They are available over the counter.   Thiamine Mononitrate is not recommended because the body doesn't absorb or utilize it well.

      HLA-DQ2 is NOT a continuum 2.01 to 2.99, but I don’t understand HLA genetics well enough to explain it further.  It is not just one gene that is either this or that.
