Would appreciate some suggestions for Gluten-free eating in Boston and in Baltimore. DH and I will be traveling next Month and would like nice dinners and average lunch place suggestions. Tried to do search on site but was overwelming, and does not specify what ones are related to search area request. Appreciate any help you may care to offer Thank you.

I can help with Boston. I regularly eat at Bugaboo Creek, Naked Fish, PF Changs china Bistro, Fire and Ice and Whole Foods market. There is a Bugaboo Creek in Watertown (Part of Boston). They have a gluten free menu. PF Changs is in the theatre district and has a great gluten free menu. Fire and Ice is in Harvard Square in Cambridge (Boston). Naked Fish is in Waltham (just outside boston). Also there is several Legal Seafoods in the Area. One is right by PF Changs. Also there is a deli in Harvard Square that makes sandwiches on gluten free bread. There is a thread is this restaurant section. I can't remember what it is called. There is a restaurant called Elephant Walk that does gluten free ( it is Indian ). You have to call ahead 24 hours. Whole foods are everywhere -Newton, Cambridge, Brighton - these are all in Boston. Great for a healthy inexpensive lunch. I also go to little Asian seafood place in Jamaica Plain (Boston) called JP Seafood. They have a sweet potatoe noodle dish and lots of rice and grilled fish or chicken. They understand gluten free. Make sure you bring your own sauce and go during slower hours. Also by Pf Changs there is Cold Stone Creamery where all the ice creams are gluten free except the obivious one that have cookies or cake in them. Make sure you have them put your ice cream in your container and not on the mixing slab. Stay away from the mix-ins. Have fun!!

Elephant Walk is French-Cambodian, not Indian; there are a few dishes they can make gluten-free that aren't ordinarily so, and those require you to call 24 hours in advance, but if you just walk in, you can also get their gluten-free menu and order most of the dishes on it. There are two restaurants, one in Brookline and one in Cambridge.

Fireplace in Brookline is very nice (very upscale, though) place that has a gluten-free menu; it's my new favorite, because the food there is terrific and they have a separate menu, though I cringe when I see the bill!

There's also a Wagamama in Quincy Market now, and they have a very limited gluten-free menu -- I've had one fabulous experience there, and one where I'm pretty sure I was glutened. (I think it depends on how busy they are, so you might want to go during off-peak hours)

Souper Salad also has a list of gluten-free meals; there's one by Government Center T-stop (so near Quincy Market/Fanueil Hall) and there may be others.

And I haven't been there yet (in Boston), but Maggianno's (the one by PF Chang's and Legal Seafood, off the Public Gardens and the Boston Common) supposedly now has gluten-free pasta.

Loraleena, thanks for the tip about the deli in Harvard Square -- I'll have to look for it!

There is also a place in Waltham which is not too far from Boston called Jakes Dixie Roadhouse. They do bbq and have quite a large gluten-free menu. I took my daughter to eat there recently and they seemed to be very knowledgeable about Celiac.

You can check out their website at www.jakes-bbq.com

You can try McCormick and Schmidts downtown at the Harbor, plenty of fish, shellfish. You can head out to DOck of the Bay in Eastern Baltimore, on Millers Island plenty of crabs, just be sure they are not steamed in beer. The is an Outback in the Canton district.

There is one near government center (102 Water St, Boston, MA) (and that one was the one that had the gluten-free menu), but there are a whole bunch over the city. (you can use google maps to find them)

      Hi there, I’m debating whether to consider a gluten challenge and I’m hoping someone here can help with that decision (so far, none of the doctors have been helpful). I have a history of breaking out in a horrible, burning/itchy somewhat blistering rash about every 8 years. This started when I was in my early 30’s and at that point it started at the ankle...

      A Future Beyond the Gluten-Free Diet? Scientists Test a New Cell Therapy for Celiac Disease (+Video)

      This is very exciting news. The research lends itself to preventing the immune system in other autoimmune disorders from getting out of sorts. As someone with a compendium of autoimmune disorders I feel a bit of hope.

Dietary supplements like Lugol's Solution and Liquid Iodine are 50 micrograms per drop.  It takes 20 drops to reach the safe upper limit. In the US the Safe upper limit is 1100 mcg.  In Europe 600 mcg and in Japan 3000 mcg ( 3 mg).

      Welcome to the celiac.com community, @JudyLou! There are a couple of things you might consider to help you in your decision that would not require you to do a gluten challenge. The first, that is if you have not had this test run already, is to request a "total IGA" test to be run. One of the reasons that celiac blood antibody tests can be negative, apart from not having celiac disease, that is, is because of IGA deficiency. If a person is IGA deficient, they will not respond accurately to the celiac disease blood antibody tests (such as the commonly run TTG-IGA). The total IGA test is designed to check for IGA deficiency. The total IGA test is not a celiac antibody test so I wouldn't think that a gluten challenge is necessary. The second is to have genetic testing done to determine if you have the genetic potential to develop celiac disease. About 30-40% of  the general population have the genetic potential but only about 1% actually develop celiac disease. So, genetic testing cannot be used to diagnose celiac disease but it can be used to rule it out. Those who don't have the genetic potential but still have reaction to gluten would not be diagnosed with celiac disease but with NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity).  Another possibility is that you do have celiac disease but are in remission. We do see this but often it doesn't last.

      Hi there, I’m debating whether to consider a gluten challenge and I’m hoping someone here can help with that decision (so far, none of the doctors have been helpful). I have a history of breaking out in a horrible, burning/itchy somewhat blistering rash about every 8 years. This started when I was in my early 30’s and at that point it started at the ankles and went about to my knees. Every time I had the rash it would cover more of my body, so my arms and part of my torso were impacted as well, and it was always symmetrical. First I was told it was an allergic reaction to a bug bite. Next I was told it was eczema (after a biopsy of the lesion - not the skin near the lesion) and given a steroid injection (didn’t help). I took myself off of gluten about 3 weeks before seeing an allergist, just to see if it would help (it didn’t in that time period). He thought the rash looked like dermatitis herpetiformis and told me to eat some bread the night before my blood tests, which I did, and the tests came back negative. I’ve since learned from this forum that I needed to be eating gluten daily for at least a month in order to get an accurate test result. I’m grateful to the allergist as he found that 5 mg of doxepin daily will eliminate the rash within about 10 days (previously it lasted for months whether I was eating gluten or not). I have been gluten free for about 25 years as a precaution and recommendation from my doctor, and the pattern of breaking out every 8 years or so remains the same except once I broke out after just one year (was not glutened as far as I know), and now it’s been over 9 years. What’s confusing to me, is that there have been 3 times in the past 2 years when I’ve accidentally eaten gluten, and I haven’t had any reaction at all. Once someone made pancakes (they said they were gluten-free, they were not) and I ate several. I need to decide whether to do a gluten challenge and get another blood test. If I do, are these tests really accurate? I’m also concerned that I could damage my gut in that process if I do have celiac disease. My brother and cousin both had lymphoma so that’s a concern regarding a challenge as well, though there is a lot of cancer in various forms in my family so there may be no gluten connection there. Sorry for the ramble, I’m just doubting the need to remain gluten free if I don’t have any reaction to eating it and haven’t had a positive test (other than testing positive for one of the genes, though it sounds like that’s pretty common). I’d appreciate any thoughts or advice!

Any ways it amps me up not able to sleep, though very tired.However I did notice it helped with my bloating sibo belly.I hate that my body is that sensitive and medical doesn't seem to take seriously. Im STILL healing with my skin, eye, and now ms or meningioma ( will know in April  which)and dealing with this limbo nightmare. I did write my name, address ect on the reclamation but im not tech savvy and not sure if went through properly. I called my city representative in Stanislaus County and asked if theres a physical paper i can sign for proclamation for celiac and she had no clue about what I was saying, so I just said I'll go back on website.

      I'm not saying that some celiacs won't need it, but it should be done under a doctor's supervision because it can cause lots of problems in some people.
