Pappadeaux's I35 In Austin, Texas

I went to Pappadeaux's on I35 in Austin tonight for dinner with my son & grandchildren. What a wonderful meal. The manager's 3 year old son has celiac. He is also allergic to dairy, soy, corn & a couple other things! She is 1/2 Italian & informed me that 30% of the Italians have a gluten problem. (I think 30% of Americans also have a gluten problem)

The manager was so great & checked with the chef to make my meal perfect.

The chef even cooked me an appetizer of the crab claws in butter only - no flour sauce - gosh they were the largest crab claws I have ever seen. I had the Salmon cooked on a plank & steamed broccoli & a side of red beans & rice ( that beans & rice part was a cheat on my Paleo diet, but I did not eat many of them, I shared with the grandkids...)

I would recommend this restaurant to anyone that needs to eat gluten-free as they are very familiar with the gluten free diet, the waiter knew right away to get the manager...

Well I have found a lot of Austin places very willing to accomodate a gluten-free diet.

I happened to be in Austin this past weekend, and my relatives asked to meet me at the Papadeaux at I35 and 290. I knew it must be fairly gluten-free friendly, because one of my aunts that was meeting me there has been gluten-free for many years and won't go anywhere that does not have a decent menu for her. I still googled info on the restaurant, mainly to see what their menu was before I got there. I saw this post in the search results and was then extremely confident about going there. (so thank you for this!) :) we had a very similar experience to your's. The waiter told us that we could order any of the fried food and just ask that it be grilled. I ordered the grilled tilapia w/ lemon and herb olive oil, and with zuccini (some of the best food i've had in a long time!!). Then he said he was going to send the manager by our table (even though we had not asked for her), and sure enough she came by within just a couple of minutes to confirm our order and assure us it would be gluten-free. She had to inform my aunt that the french fries that came with her order were not gluten-free, and offered her a baked potato instead. I was very pleased with the service and friendliness, and especially with the delicious food. I will visit this restaurant on every trip to Austin now!!

      Just like you cannot be a little pregnant, you cannot be a little Celiac.  Here is an article I found that explains what the numbers mean. Are You Confused About Your Celiac Disease Lab Results? Here is another article about the non traditional symptoms of Celiac Disease. What Are the Symptoms of Celiac Disease? I've been taking 10,000 IU vitamin D3 since 2015.  My blood tests every 3 months for 25(OH)D have never gone above 93 ng/ml, even in the Florida summer.  70 - 100 is the body's natural homeostasis level. Surge of information on benefits of vitamin D "“When combined with supplemental magnesium, vitamin D repletion has dramatically changed my practice,” said...

      Interesting! Recent labs I had done did show that I was low in Vitamin D so I just began supplementing, it’s hard to tell so soon but it does seem to have a positive affect! Thanks for the input!

      Your frustration and exhaustion are completely valid, and many in the celiac and gluten-sensitive community can relate to the overwhelming confusion you're experiencing. You’re being pulled in different directions by medical advice that seems contradictory, and it’s heartbreaking that your efforts to feel better are met with so many setbacks. Positive TTG IgA antibodies are not something to brush off, especially when combined with your long list of debilitating symptoms that clearly worsen with gluten exposure. A negative biopsy does not necessarily mean you don’t have celiac disease—it’s entirely possible that damage was missed, especially since biopsy results can vary...

      While a definitive causal link remains unclear, vitamin D's known role in immune modulation and intestinal barrier integrity suggests that it plays a significant role in the development and progression of celiac disease.  Reduced 25(OH)D levels are associated with celiac disease.  In celiac disease, gluten can damage these tight junctions, and vitamin D may play a protective role in this context.

      I have posted a lot on here and find that the support , advice and information here is much more helpful than anything else.. ever. I am really tired of the back and forth advice in the medical community and I am beyond frustrated and over all of it currently. I will try to keep this as brief as possible. I have positive TTG IGA antibodies - and I have had these every time I have been tested. The first time they were positive I was told I did not have celiac and couldn't have celiac but I was gluten intolerant and to go gluten free. I did this for about 3-4 months, dedicated I might add, and I did feel better. However, my blood glucose went up drastically and since I was already pre-diabetic...
