gluten-free Breakfast In Boston?


foxdog

Recommended Posts

I'm traveling to boston to meet up with my parents. I'll have access to a kitchen for most of my trip, just not right way.

Can anyone recommend a gluten-free breakfast place relatively close to the airport (by T or by car)? It would be great if it had espresso too...

Thanks,

heidi

I go to Boston all the time, but I have avoided breakfast. The one place I know of is Fire and Ice in Harvard Square on Sunday MOrnings. They have a brunch buffet. This is how it works. They have a big grill in the middle of the room to cook everything. If you have gluten issues, they will take your food in the back and cook it in your own pan. The buffet is full of uncooked food. You can order an omelet and then pick out everything you want in it. They also have raw meats, veggies and rice that you give them and they make a stir fry for you. They have a sauce bar and they will give you a list of sauces and which ones are gluten free so you can choose what you want your food cooked in. It costs 15.99 for unlimited. The omelets are humoungous!

This might not help you much now, but I just discovered that Fireplace in Brookline (get there from the green C-line) can do gluten-free brunch -- including duck hash! They have a full-on gluten-free menu for dinner, but for the brunch, we called in advance and they called the head chef just to double check.

This thread is ancient but I just came across it and HAVE to say something.

I got food poisoning at Fire and Ice many many years ago (pre-gluten,dairy issues). Buffet with food sitting out all day = not a good idea.

More to the point for this board, the cc issues are massive, with everyone directly picking their own food out of the buffet.

      Hey @suek54, I also have Dermatitis Herpetiformis. I used to be on Dapsone but have managed to wean myself off it after many attempts. It's quiet a toxic drug, as it affects the bone marrow and red blood cells. It also artificially reduces Hemoglobin A1C. Mine was at 21 at one stage, I think normal is around 37. With dermatitis herpetiformis, you need to be really strict. It wasn't until I focused on getting the trace minerals the body needs that I managed to get off it. I believe getting the thyroid numbers in the optimal range also helped with Iodine and Selenium. Iodine doesn't bother me for some reason, but flares others as knitty kitty said. I take Viridian Trace Mineral complex and it's made a huge difference, among other vitamins and minerals. Now I can tolerate gluten free oats which I could never eat before. Though I only have them very occasionally in the form of gluten free soda bread . One thing I miss is my Mums Irish soda bread. Hope this helps.

      Hi all Biopsy confirmed dermatitis herpetiformis. Strict gluten free diet going OK, I cook nearly everything from scratch anyway and am finding gluten free  adaptations for most recipes.  I seem to be tolerating 50mg Dapsone well, regular blood tests OK so far.  Next derma appt in 8 weeks. I have some continuing itching and rash outbreaks, though nowhere near as severe as they were, so I am hoping for an increased dose, as the effect only seems to last 6-7 hours.  I think I may be burning through it more quickly than some due to other medication. Also I cannot mount a response to inflammation due to Addison's Disease.  I hope others are finding their way though the minefield that is dermatitis herpetiformis. Hang on in there! Sue (in UK)

      @KeriRae, have you been diagnosed with celiac disease or with dermatitis herpetiformis?
    • KeriRae
      I've had this same rash on my back on and off for the last year or two.  I was taking LDN to help with other issues but quit awhile back. I'm wondering if LDN would help with this rash.
