What's Good To Eat In Cleveland?

So how 'bout it? Does anybody recommend good places to go in Cleveland who will feed me?? I don't mind figuring out my own breakfasts and lunches, but there are usually large get-togethers for supper, and I'd love to be prepared.

Thanks!!!

Lins,

I'll welcome you in advance to my hometown. Where will you be staying? Depending upon what side of town you will be I can recommend some options for you. We have all the usual restaurant chains and some of them around here offer gluten-free menu's (PF Changs on the East Side / Carrabba's on the West Side). Mostly I eat plain burgers, plain steaks or salads.

The key is talking to the chef. If you can get the wait staff to pass along your needs and speak directly to chef you'll have no concerns.

Hey, thanks Cleveland Bob!

I am unsure of where we'll be staying. The show is at the IX Center and last time we stayed out by the airport. They guys I will be with tend to like to go downtown for at least one nice dinner. We don't have PF Chang or Carrabbas around where I live so those might be good places to go if I get the opportunity to specify. I expect, tho, that they'll want a nice steak place that's not a chain. I just figure if anyone has had good experiences in any particular places, I can just nicely explain to my coworkers that if they want me well enough to help at the show, they best find me some non contaiminated food! :D

Honestly, I'd stay away from those chain places. They are run of the mill, and actually kind of nasty.

If you like ethnic foods there are two great places.

One is Shanghai Place, owned by new owners who are really health concious and definitely should be able to accomodate us. They are known to treat their customers EXCELLENTLY. They have raving reviews too but for some reason I can't find them. Keep in mind the restaurant has like 5 names, so I could be searching under the wrong one. The address and phone is correct, though.

Another is Empress Taytu's Ethiopian place. Ethiopian is actually a really good cuisine, believe it or not. Their restaurant is also highly rated.

      Thank you 😊 I will certainly have those tests done to be thorough although bright red color indicates lower down.  This information is very interesting,  Thank you so much 🙏🏻

      As Plumbago mentioned, bleeding in the upper end of the GI track tends not to show up as bright red in color because it gets acted upon by the digestion process and more thoroughly mixed in with food residues that are passing through the intestines.

      @Bronwyn W Working with your medical provider, you could do a complete blood count test. If you were bleeding say from an ulcer in the stomach (and let's hope not), your red blood cells could be low and your hemoglobin low as well. Your stools may show up as the proverbial "dark and tarry," indicative of a bleeding site further away from the anus. Basically, you may be anemic. Your heart may be beating extra fast as a way to compensate for the decreased number of blood cells, your oxygen saturation may be lower than normal on a pulse oximeter, and so on. But talk to your doctor.

      Thank you for this insight. I have had rectal bleeding after glutening and subsequent constipation (+ IBS-C) and always attributed it to internal hemorrhoids (diagnosed). What I wasn't aware of is the possibility of bleeding further up the digestive tract. Please can you elaborate on the causes and symptoms to watch for?

      Still unsure.....

      Be sure to be eating gluten daily until all of your celiac disease tests are completed (at least 2 slices worth of wheat bread per day for at least 6-8 weeks before any blood tests, and 2 weeks before an endoscopy).
