Gluten Free In Portland Oregon...

Yesterday we found a new place to eat, and to my suprise the whole menu was gluten free! The whole menu, even cheescakes, tortes, and ice cream for dessert. So, if you live in Portland, Oregon or anywhere near there go check it out. Its Corbett Fish House (hopefully you dig seafood).. It was very good, and the prices were reasonable. Also it was the first time I have had any deep fried anything from a restaraunt since last year!

The Hawthorn Fish House is also gluten free. There is a rather large list of gluten free restaurants if you go to the Portland Gluten Intolerance Group (GIG) website! There's also a bakery in Sellwood, you can probably find it by doing a google search.

I live in Salem, so I don't really get up to Portland very often, but last time I did, I went to "oliver's" which used to be "pasta rico's" or something. They have the BEST pizza ever!!! I felt like I was cheating!! Delish!! Try it!!

I'm actually in salem also, and as you know there are only two places to eat in this town! Once a month or so I make it up to portland to eat somewhere else, its like my little treat....I've been to Pasta Ricos 5 times since I was dx, they have awesome pizza! I like the outback, but it does get a tad old sometimes.... :P

Ooh, pizza? I'll have to check it out. I live in Portland (well, for another week anyway).

The fish house is really great, some of the best fish and chips I've had, period. And gluten-free cheesecake? Yay food happiness!

There's a great little coffee shop next to the Corbett Street Fish House that has gluten-free treats. I'm eating a chocolate coffee cake right now. They also had bread pudding and a daily pasta dish. All gluten-free. And best of all, they serve yummy Stumptown coffee.

k i was in portland last month visiting my mom, and we went down to the former newport bay on the waterfront. i can't remember what it's called, but they made me the most delicious meal, gluten-free the chef assured me. it was a cedar plank salmon with risotto. and the risotto was TO DIE FOR! literally melt-in-your-mouth. it was butternut squash puree, rice and cheese. i so want to recreate it but don't know how. if you know what the place is called, hook me up, i want to call them and find out the recipe :D mmmm...my mouth is watering!

      Thank you for your response. I have already learned about the info you sent but i appreciate your effort. I am the only one in my family cursed by this disease. I have to cook for them too. I make sure that my utensils are free of gluten and clean after using them for other food. I use non-porous pots and pans and  gloves when cooking for them. One huge problem I have is a gag reflex out of this world and if something doesn't taste good it is not going down. Most commercially made breads and such taste like old cardboard.Pastas are about the same. I did find one flour that I like and use it regularly, but it is so expensive! All gluten free food is way more expensive. I only eat twice a day because I cannot afford to buy all that. We live on a very low income so my food purchases are quite limited.

      What you've described—the severe weight loss, the cycle of medications making things worse, and the profound fear of eating before leaving the house—is a heavy burden to carry for 15 years. It is absolutely not your fault. While everyone's journey with celiac is different, the struggles with the learning curve, social isolation, and dietary grief are feelings many in the community know all too well. Your question about whether you should just eat what you want and manage the symptoms is a heartbreaking one, born from years of frustration. It's crucial to know that the diarrhea is a sign of ongoing damage to your small intestine from gluten, and simply managing the symptom with Imodium doesn't stop that internal harm or the risk of other complications. The fact that you are still getting sick within an hour of eating, even while trying to be gluten-free, is a huge red flag that something isn't right. This could be due to cross-contamination in your kitchen (e.g., using a shared toaster, colander, or condiment jars), hidden gluten in foods, or the possibility of another concurrent condition like refractory celiac disease. Don't give up!  This article has some detailed information on how to be 100% gluten-free, so it may be helpful (be sure to also read the comments section.):

      I am new here but celiac disease is not new to me. I was diagnosed with it at age 60. At the time I weighed a whopping 89 pounds. I was so ignorant to celiac so I buried myself in learning all about it and looking for food I could eat. I lost so much weight and stayed sick all the time. So to combat the sickness I was give all sorts of meds for loose bowels and vomiting. All that just made me sicker. Eventually I chucked it all and went back to eating like I had all my life. Now I am from the south and biscuits and gravy are a big part of our food, as are breaded foods, pasta, and sandwich bread. Through the years I would try to do the gluten free thing again and am doing it now. It has not helped any. Within and hour of eating I have to run to the bathroom. I am now 75 and am wondering if I should just forget it and eat what I like, take Immodium and live the best I can. I cannot eat before going anywhere for fear of embarrassing myself. Family and church dinners are out of the question unless I eat and run straight home. I am so frustrated I just want to sit down and cry or throw something. Does everyone go through all this?

      Oh yes I can understand the tiredness after going threw all that, must be exhausting especially on the mind I have high aniexty so I can understand that , I wish there more easier ways for people to get help , I had a MRI on my spine some years ago without anything it was really quick and no prep , I understand the need for  them to see better with the bowel ,but you think they would use something a little less traumatic  for ibd sufferers on the bowels by now ,I hope your feeling better today 🙏
