Hi everyone. I was just diagnosed on 5/31 and have been planning a trip to San Diego. Is there anyone out there who knows of any gluten-free restaurants in that area? Thanks in advance! ;)

I am also planning a trip to San Diego this month. I believe that there is a PF Changs in town, and also an Outback Steakhouse. I have heard that both of these have gluter-free menus available. I'm hoping to find some places that have good, fresh seafood, that will be gluten free.

I hope you have a great time on your trip!

I have had luck at Cilantros Live (in Hillcrest, Chula Vista and Carlsbad), Le Bambou (in Del Mar), Apertivo (in North Park)....hmmm if you tell me which area you'll be in I might be able to narrow it down more. There's plenty of Mexican food, seafood and good health food/grocery stores (Whole Foods, Henry's, Trader Joes, OB People's Co-op, Jimbos). There's also a thread (maybe a couple) that list many more restaruants.

www.glutenfreeinsd.com might help as well. :)

Yes, that is right about the PF Chang's and Outback...And as luck would have it, I got in the mail today my copy of The Essential Gluten-Free Restaurant Guide and there are several others listed for San Diego:Andre's Restaurant, Buca Di Beppo, Claim Jumper, Corvette Diner, Flemings Steakhouse, Mimi's Cafe, Napa Valley Grille, Roy's, Ruth's Chris Steakhouse and Uno Chicago Grill. Many of them say that they don't have a gluten-free menu but say to either make reservations noting gluten-free and to remind the server upon arrival. If you are interested in knowing specific addresses, now that I have this book, I can let you know. I hope you have a great trip too!!!

I am not too familiar with the San Diego area but I can tell you that we are at the Hilton on Mission Bay. Does that help at all? Thanks for the tips about the Mexican food and the health food stores in the area. I will keep that in mind. Also, thanks for the link to gluten-free in SD and for your suggestions of restaurants where you have had some luck. Since I am recently diagnosed (just last week), this really helps me!

I am also on my way to San Diego in about a week. We are staying in Del Mar. So any other suggestions for the Del Mar area would be great. We will be spending quite a bit of time at the fair and I am at a loss as to how to be at the fair and what to eat. I understand that Jimbo's will can make gluten free sandwiches. So I thought of going there to get some food to take with me to the fair. But I would love suggestions for where to eat in the evenings. My favorite place is the Japanese Cafe. I am hoping they can make me some gluten free sushi. I have soy sauce I am taking with me in packets.

      Hi,  I care for my seven year old daughter with Celiac. After watching her for months, I have figured out that she has problem with two kinds of fats- animal fat and cooking oils. It basically makes her intestine sore enough that she feels spasms when she is upset. It only happens on days when she has eaten more fat than her usual every day diet. (Her usual diet has chia seeds, flaxseeds, and avocado/ pumpkin seeds for fat and an occasional chicken breast.) I stopped using cooking oils last year, and when I reintroduced eggs and dairy, both of which I had held off for a few months thinking it was an issue of the protein like some Celiac patients habe mentioned to be the case, she has reacted in the same fashion as she does with excess fats. So now I wonder if her reaction to dairy and eggs is not really because of protein but fat.   I don't really have a question, just wondering if anyone finds this familiar and if it gets better with time.  Thank you.

      Hello, My name is Chanda and you are not the only one that gose through the same things. I have found that what's easiest for me is finding a few meals each week that last. I have such severe reactions to gluten that it shuts my entire body down. I struggle everyday with i can't eat enough it feels like, when I eat more I lose more weight. Make sure that you look at medication, vitamins and shampoo and conditioner also. They have different things that are less expensive at Walmart.

      Thank you so much! I saw some tips around the forum to make a food diary and now that I know that the community also struggles with corn, egg and soy, the puzzle pieces came together! Just yesterday I tried eating eggs and yes, he’s guilty and charged. Those there are my 3 combo nausea troublemakers. I’m going to adjust my diet ☺️ Also thank you for the information about MCAS! I’m from South America and little it’s talked about it in here. It’s honestly such a game changer now for treatment and recovery. I know I’m free from SIBO and Candida since I’ve been tested for it, but I’m still going to make a endoscopy to test for H. Pylori and Eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE). Thank you again!! Have a blessed weekend 🤍

      Yes, I, too, have osteoporosis from years of malabsorption, too.  Thiamine and magnesium are what keep the calcium in place in the bones.  If one is low in magnesium, boron, selenium, zinc, copper, and other trace minerals, ones bone heath can suffer.  We need more than just calcium and Vitamin D for strong bones.  Riboflavin B 2, Folate B 9 and Pyridoxine B 6 also contribute to bone formation and strength.   Have you had your thyroid checked?  The thyroid is important to bone health as well.  The thyroid uses lots of thiamine, so a poorly functioning thyroid will affect bone heath.

      That sounds so very likely in my case! I will absolutely ask my doctor on my next bone check coming up in March... Thanks a lot!
