Dining In Nh

Help!

I am new to this Celiac business. I have been Gluten-free for two and half week. My birthday is on Friday. Being Italian I usually head to the North End for lots of bread and pasta. (Yummy) I was wondering if anyone could suggest a great place for a Birthday dinner. I am also allergic to almonds!

If anyone knows of a bakery where I could purchase a gluten-free birthday please let me know.

I live in the Upper Valley, not far from Dartmouth College, but am willing to travel just about anywhere for fine dining and fun!

many thanks

Sara

Try Raffertys Pub in North Conway. Apparently the owners have a child with celiac so they have an extensive gluten-free menu. We haven't tried it yet, but the menu looks wonderful. www.raffspub.com.

I just returned from our twice yearly visits to NH, and was surprised to find out the Italian Farmhouse in Plymouth has a gluten-free menu. It's run by Alex Ray, owner of all the Common Man restaurants. He owns about 15 restaurants now. They probably all have some type of accomodations. I ate at the Common Man in Ashland last December, and they were accommodating, but didn't have a full menu to offer me.

Good luck....you have lots of options with this "chain" alone!

Do you guys know of anything near Southern Winnepausaukee? We're going there in August. We'll have a kitchen in our hotel, but it would be really nice to take my son to a restaurant that serves pasta he can eat.

Any suggestions for Southern New Hampshire would be really helpful! We're hoping to go to Storyland after we attend a wedding in August.

Thanks,

Margaret

Rafferty's in North Conway is near Storyland -- I would definitely try there. Also, fyi, Storyland has a lot of allergy info right on their website about what is in their foods.

Thanks! For some reason I had assumed that Storyland was down near Canobie Lake Park. Not sure WHY I thought that, but this will make our trip awesome. Rafferty's sounds great. This will be the first time we'll eat in a restaurant since the life changing phone call back in June.

Many thanks to all of you that have responded. I just found out that Yo Mama's in Merrimack, NH and

The Smoke House or Smoke Pit near Tamworth / Ossippee offer gluten-free menu's as well. I am not sure of the name of BQ / Smoke House restaurant, but I heard that the owner has several children with Gluten issues. They are supposed to be great and BQ chicken. Yum.

Just wanted to say that we ate at Rafferty's this June and it was fabulous --the food, the people, the food, the food, the food :) the people...... You really can't improve on ordering from a FULL menu from servers who already know everything about celiac.

      It is just so sad that health care in the United States has come to this.  Health insurance should be available to everyone, not just the healthy or the rich.  My heart goes out to you.  I would not hesitate to have the test and pay for it myself.  My big concern would be how you could keep the results truly private.  I am sure that ultimately, you could not.  A.I. is getting more and more pervasive, and all data is available somewhere.  I don't know if you could give a fake name, or pay for your test with cash.  I certainly would not disclose any positive results on a private insurance application.  As I understand it, for an official diagnosis, an MD needs to review your labs and make the call.  If you end up in the ER, or some other situation, just request a gluten free diet, and say it is because you feel better when you don't eat gluten.      Hang in there, though.  Medicare is not that far away for you, and it will remove a lot of stress from your health care concerns.  You will even be able to "come out of the closet" about being Celiac!

      Yes, I've posted a few times about two companies: Request a Test and Ulta Labs. Also, pretty much we can all request any test we want (with the possible exception of the N protein Covid test and I'm sure a couple of others) with Lab Corp (or Pixel by Lab Corp) and Quest. I much prefer Lab Corp for their professionalism, ease of service and having it together administratively, at least in DC. And just so you know, Request a Test uses Lab Corp and Quest anyway, while Ulta Labs uses only Quest. Ulta Labs is cheaper than Request a Test, but I am tired of dealing with Quest, so I don't use them so much.

      PS - I think you meant this site, but I don't believe it has been updated in years: http://glutenfreedrugs.com/ so it is best to use: You can search this site for prescriptions medications, but will need to know the manufacturer/maker if there is more than one, especially if you use a generic version of the medication: To see the ingredients you will need to click on the correct version of the medication and maker in the results, then scroll down to "Ingredients and Appearance" and click it, and then look at "Inactive Ingredients," as any gluten ingredients would likely appear there, rather than in the Active Ingredients area. https://dailymed.nlm.nih.gov/dailymed/

      A lot to think about here. Does anyone have any recommendations for third party laboratories that will do full panel celiac screens private pay in the U.S.?
    • Scott Adams
      You don't need an official diagnosis to request a gluten-free diet in either a hospital or nursing home--this can be requested by anyone. The higher costs associated with existing conditions for life insurance is a reality, and regardless of your politics, it could become a reality again for health insurance in the USA. For many this could make health insurance unaffordable, thus, everyone who is undiagnosed should understand such potential consequences before they go the official diagnostic route. As mentioned, once it's on your medical record, it won't go away.
