Thanks - I'll check into it. My hotel room has a full kitchen, but what makes it a vacation if I have to cook all of the time!

Babycakes! - Gluten-free bakery on the Lower East Side. www.babycakesnyc.com. It's a cute little place with a lot of great options, and it's sugar-free and vegan as well (I promise, they still taste great). I think you take the F train to Delancey Street and walk down to Broome Street, but I would look up their address and look up the subway directions on Hopstop (see below) to be safe.

Risotteria is my favorite restaurant, and you can also check out www.glutenfreerestaurants.org for a list of GFRAP-associated restaurants in New York City. There's also Mozzarelli's on 23rd street between Park & Madison for amazing gluten free pizza by the slice, but they're only open weekdays, and S'Mac in the east village (east 12th street between 1st and 2nd avenues) for great gluten-free mac and cheese.

Check out the celiac chicks . com (one word No spaces) They live in NY and are always reviewing places.

I've posted a ton of stuff on the restaurant thread. Just search for NYC restaurants.

Not previously in any of my restaurant reccomendations is a new restaurant with gluten free mac n' cheese.

The info is:

S'Mac

345 East 12th Street, NY, NY 10003

212-358-7912, 212-358-7917

I haven't tried it yet, but I've heard rave reviews and I know they take great measures to avoid any possibility of cross contamination.

You might want to call Bistango and see if they are open. This is one of my favorites, but I think they are closed for renovations.

Bistango is an amazing Italian Restaurant!!!! If my memory serves me, it is at 28th and 3rd... gluten-free bread, pasta and anything on the menu can be made gluten-free. Excellent service and very safe...

another blog with a list of restaurants that deal well with food restrictions: Open Original Shared Link. she is not celiac but is gluten-free (plus a lot of other 'frees'). List is down the right hand side of the screen, click through for reviews & location info.

another NYC list at Open Original Shared Link (scroll down for full list, the frame makes it look short but it isn't)

most 'high end' restaurants in NYC can handle gluten-free pretty well in my experience.

happy eating!

      plant sources of calcium, such as spinach, have calcium bound to oxalates, which is not good. best source of calcium is unfortunately dairy, do you tolerate dairy? fermented dairy like kefir is good and or a little hard cheese. i do eat dairy, i can only take so much dietary restriction and gluten is hard enough! but i guess some people do have bad reactions to it, so different for everyone.

      i take b12, folate, b2, b6, glycine, Nac, zinc, vk2 mk4, magnesium, coq10, pqq, tmg, creatine, omega 3, molybdnem (sp) and just started vit d. quite a list i know.  I have high homocysteine (last checked it was 19, but is always high and i finally decided to do something about it) and very low vitamin d, 10. have been opposed to this supp in the past, but going to try it at 5k units a day. having a pth test on friday, which is suspect will be high. my homocysteine has come down to around 9 with 3 weeks of these supplements and expect it to go down further. i also started on estrogen/progesterone. I have osteoporosis too, so that is why the hormones.  anyway, i think all celiacs should have homocysteine checked and treated if needed (easy enough with b vit, tmg). homocysteine very bad thing to be high for a whole host of reasons. all the bad ones, heart attack , stroke, alzi, cancer..... one of the most annoying things about celiacs (and there are so many!) is the weight gain. i guess i stayed thin all those years being undiagnosed because i was under absorbing everything including calories. going gluten-free and the weight gain has been terrible, 30#, but i'm sure a lot more went into that (hip replacement - and years of hip pain leading to inactivity when i was previously very active, probably all related to celiacs, menopause) yada yada. i seemed to lose appetite control, like there was low glp, or leptin or whatever all those hormones are that tell you that you are full and to stop eating. my appetite is immense and i'm never full. i guess decades or more ( i think i have had celiacs since at least my teens - was hospitalized for abdominal pain and diarrhea for which spastic colon was eventually diagnosed and had many episodes of diarrhea/abdominal pain through my 20's. but that symptom seemed to go away and i related it to dairy much more so than gluten. Also my growth was stunted, i'm the only shorty in my family. anyway, decades of malabsorption and maldigestion led to constant hunger, at least thats my theory. then when i started absorbing normally, wham!! FAT!!!

      Great advise there I agree with the aniexty part, and the aura migraine has I suffer both, I've also read some great books that have helped I'm going too look the one you mentioned up too thankyou for that, I find a camomile tea just a small one and a gentle wind down before bed has helped me too, I suffer from restless leg syndrome and nerve pain hence I don't always sleep well at the best of times , racing mind catches up I have decorated my whole house in one night in my mind before 🤣 diet changes mindset really help , although I have to say it never just disappears, I find once I came to terms with who I am I managed a lot better  , a misconception is for many to change , that means to heal but that's not always the case , understanding and finding your coping mechanisms are vital tools , it's more productive to find that because there is no failure then no pressure to become something else , it's ok to be sad it's ok to not sleep , it's ok to worry , just try to see it has a journey not a task 🤗

      I agree there I've tryed this myself to prove I can't eat gluten or lactose and it sets me back for about a month till I have to go back to being very strict to settle again

      You may also need to supplement with B12 as this vitamin is also involved in iron assimilation and is often deficient in long-term undiagnosed celiac disease.
