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.

      Celiac disease is the most likely cause, but here are articles about the other possible causes:

      Hi @Atl222 As @trents points out, there could be many reasons for this biopsy result.  I am interested to know, is your gastroenterologist concerned?  Also, are your blood tests showing steady improvement over the years? I remember when I had my last biopsy, several years after diagnosis, mine came back with with raised lymphocytes but no villous damage, too! In my own case, my consultant wasn't remotely concerned - in fact, he said I might still get this result even if all I ever did was eat nothing but rice and water.   My coeliac blood tests were still steadily improving, albeit slowly, which was reassuring.

      Welcome to the celiac.com community, @Atl222! Yes, your increased lymphocytes could be in response to oats or it could possibly be cross contamination from gluten that is getting into your diet from some unexpected source but not enough to damage the villi. And I'm certain that increased lymphocytes can be caused by other things besides celiac disease or gluten/oats exposure. See attachment. But you might try eliminating oats to start with and possibly dairy for a few months and then seek another endoscopy/biopsy to see if there was a reduction in lymphocyte counts.

      This is a solid, well-reasoned approach. You’re right that “koji” by itself doesn’t indicate gluten status, and the risk really does come down to which grain is used to culture it. The fact that you directly contacted Eden Foods and received a clear statement that their koji is made from rice only, with no wheat or barley, is meaningful due diligence—especially since Eden has a long-standing reputation for transparency. While the lack of gluten labeling can understandably give pause, manufacturer confirmation like this is often what people rely on for traditionally fermented products. As always, trusting your body after trying it is reasonable, but based on the information you gathered, your conclusion makes sense.
