Stir Crazy Restaurant

We went to a Stir Crazy restaurant yesterday. Open Original Shared Link

After playing at an arcade, Gameworks in Schaumburg, IL. and stopped at the Woodfield Mall.

We were getting hungry as we were there longer than we expected. Looking around as to where we could take my son to eat.

We haven't been out to eat much after his diagnosis in January.

My husband went in to ask about a gluten free menu. They had one

The Asian Market Bar, had 2 gluten free sauces to choose from.

The manager personally went though the line with us. Talked to the cook about how to handle Billy's food. Had the cooks use freshly sanitized pan and ladle, he kept the ladle away form the other items he was cooking. It all went well and Billy had a great meal.

Thanks for posting. There is one in a mall by me as well and I never would have thought to try there.

Did they have a specific gluten free menu or did they just let you know what they could make for him safely?

They said not to order the other things off the menu but eat at the Asian Market Bar.

That is where you pick the rice, veggies and meat and they cook it at the "bar" You watch them cook it. Then they have 2 sauces. The sauces are not left on the "bar" they will ask you which one you want and bring it out for you.

You have to let them know you want it gluten free and they will cook with clean pan/utensils.

Our bill was approx. $15 dollars per person.

Yummmmmmmmm I love stir crazy! Do you remember what the sauce options were? I'm allergic to soy so I'm hoping one of them wasn't a soy based sauce (doubtful but you never know!)

I am not sure. Billy's Dad was helping him order. The one Billy got seemed to have soy to me. Seemed like a soy sauce type. I don't know what the other option was.

I wonder if you took in your own sauce and told them you dietary needs they could use yours? I am not sure about health regulations with that though.

It would be worth a try to check it out.

The kids loved Gameworks. Billy and his teenaged sister liked the second level better. My younger daughter liked down stairs more. It is the 3rd time we have been there. We accidentally came across it about 1.5-2 years ago.

I can't say it is my favorite place though. I have to be a good Mom and let the kids have their fun.

      Nicotine Gum For Gluten Symptoms.. Am I Crazy?

      By sleuth · Posted

      He is not just a psychiatrist.  He is also a neuroscientist.  And yes, I have already read those studies.   I agree with benfotiamine.  This is short term while glutened/inflammation occurs.  As I had already mentioned, these symptoms no longer exist when this phase passes.  And yes, I know that celiac is a disease of malnutrition.  We are working with a naturopath.

      Nicotine Gum For Gluten Symptoms.. Am I Crazy?

      Please do more research before you settle on nicotine. Dr. Paul New house is a psychiatrist.  His latest study involves the effect of nicotine patches on Late Life Depression which has reached no long term conclusions about the benefits.   Effects of open-label transdermal nicotine antidepressant augmentation on affective symptoms and executive function in late-life depression https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/39009312/   I'm approaching the subject from the Microbiologist's point of view which shows nicotine blocks Thiamine B1 uptake and usage:   Chronic Nicotine Exposure In Vivo and In Vitro Inhibits Vitamin B1 (Thiamin) Uptake by Pancreatic Acinar Cells https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/26633299/   While supplementation with thiamine in the form Benfotiamine can protect from damage done by  nicotine: Benfotiamine attenuates nicotine and uric acid-induced vascular endothelial dysfunction in the rat https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/18951979/   I suggest you study the beneficial effects of Thiamine (Benfotiamine and TTFD) on the body and mental health done by Dr. Derrick Lonsdale and Dr. Chandler Marrs.  Dr. Lonsdale had studied thiamine over fifty years.   Hiding in Plain Sight: Modern Thiamine Deficiency https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC8533683/ I suggest you read their book Thiamine Deficiency Disease, Dysautonomia, and High Calorie Malnutrition.     Celiac Disease is a disease of malabsorption causing malnutrition.  Thiamine and benfotiamine: Focus on their therapeutic potential https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10682628/

      Thanks for your response.  Everything you mentioned he is and has been doing.  Tobacco is not the same as nicotine.  Nicotine, in the form of a patch, does not cause gastrointestinal irritation.  Smoking does. He is not smoking.  Please do your research before stating false information. Dr. Paul Newhouse has been doing research on nicotine the last 40 years at Vanderbilt University Medical Center.

      Fighting for a name

      Im so frustrated and still getting the run around trying to reprove my celiac disease which my past primary ignored for 25 years.I understand that theres a ray of medical that doctors are limited too but not listening and telling the patient ( me) that im not as sensitive as I think and NOT celiac!Correction Mr white coat its not what I think but for cause and affect and past test that are not sticking in my medical records.I get sick violently with foods consumed, not eating the foods will show Im fabulous. After many blood draws and going through doctors I have the HLA- DQ2 positive which I read in a study that Iran conducted that the severity in celiac is in that gene.Im glutenfree and dealing with related issues which core issue of celiac isn't addressed. My skin, right eye, left leg diagestive issues affected. I have high blood pressure because im in pain.Im waisting my time on trying to reprove that Im celiac which is not a disease I want, but unfortunately have.It  has taken over my life personally and professionally. How do I stop getting medically gaslight and get the help needed to bounce back if I ever do bounce back to normal? I thought I was in good care with " celiac specialist " but in her eyes Im good.Im NOT.Sibo positive, IBS, Chronic Fatigue just to name a few and its all related to what I like to call a ghost disease ( celiac) since doctors don't seem to take it seriously.

      @Martha Mitchell, your reaction to the lens implant with gluten sounds like it could be an allergic reaction rather than a celiac reaction. It is possible for a celiac to be also allergic to gluten as it is a protein component in wheat, barley and rye.
