gluten-free Italian Restaurant In Nyc

Hello fellow Celiacs,

If you live in NY and haven't tried Bistango on 3rd and 29th, you dont know what you're missing! I had the good fortune of finding this Italian restaurant that makes anything on the menu, gluten-free!! I haven't tasted such delicious Italian food like this since I had to go gluten-free 10 years ago. I finally found this place after living in NYC for 4 years (and LI/Queens my whole life). Even my husband who doesnt have celiac disease, loves the food (the regular food and the gluten-free food as well). I found out about this place through a great website called Celiac chicks (which Ive known about for years......probably saw this place listed on there but why I never went there sooner, I have no idea!) Anyway, this helpful website gives lots of gluten-free/celiac disease info. Plus, its a family owned business and the owner is such a nice guy (Anthony), which makes it so much easier and relaxing to eat there. I didnt feel like I had to obssess over whether the food was really gluten-free or that there'd be no CC, like I usually worry at every place I eat at.

So, I hope you try this place and enjoy it as much as I did. I'm a loyal fan. Oh, and by the way, the gluten-free desserts are out of this world!!!! They blew me away!!!!

Happy Eating! :D

If anyone can recommend a gluten-free/celiac disease friendly restaurant in NYC, please do share! (I also found Lili and Loo on Lex. and 62nd which has a gluten-free Chinese menu, also to die for/out of this world delish!!!

Celiac Chicks do have a very helpful website if you're NYC area!

Also check out Open Original Shared Link by a gluten-free (and allergic to nuts and fish, plus I think is non-dairy and if possible kosher) diner. She has a whole list of "safe" restaurants down the right-hand side, some with gluten-free menus and some who don't have a special menu but a very good at dealing with food restrictions.

Will definitely have to try Bistango soon...after I get to Gus's (which we loved in its former incarnation and before I was gluten-free)

      I strongly agree with others about processed gluten free foods, like breads and pasta, being bad for us. Read the labels, full of this starch and that starch, seed oils that are inflammatory, etc. Before you were celiac, you probably wouldn't even touch something with those ingredients. I do much better with whole foods, meat, veggies, a little fruit. I made 90% myself, make extra and freeze it for future meals. Cutting out processed gluten free food and eating mostly real whoke food helped me feel much better. And definitely benfotiamine!

      Please be sure to try Benfotiamine or Thiamine Hydrochloride.  The form Thiamine Mononitrate is not absorbed nor utilized well.  Benfotiamine is much more bioavailable.  Perhaps Thiamine Mononitrate was in your previous B Complex supplements, explaining why they didn't work for you.   All the B vitamins work together.  Thiamine needs the other B vitamins to make enzymes and ATP, so you will need to take them.  Taking them in individual supplements is fine.  I've done the same.  Just remember you need all eight.   Let me know how it's going for you!

      Thanks! This makes a lot of sense.

      Thanks! I am currently trying B1 out on its own. I tried many brands of B-complex and they always make me feel nauseous and tired. I think I may have to try taking each B vitamin on its own.
