Gluten Free In Ft. Lauderdale


Daxin

Recommended Posts

DW and I are heading out on our winter getaway, and have 2 days in Ft. Lauderdale before we head out to sea. We are staying on Seabreeze Blvd and I am wondering if anyone here can tell me if there are any good places to eat near by. I know there is a PF Changs a short way away, but am wondering about other places in the area.

We will not have a car, so will be relying on taxis/water taxi/bus to get around. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Sorry, can't help with your question so I hope you'll forgive my posting but please post a review when you get back. I love to cruise but haven't gone since going gluten free. I love to read about others experiences so I can make a good cruise line choice when I venture out on the high seas. What cruise line are you going on?

Thanks!

Holland America. This will be our second cruise with them since I went Gluten Free. They are more than understanding and the staff were very helpful. I was brought the dinner menu at least 24 hours in advance so I could make my selections for the following evening. If we ate at the other cafes etc, we just told them, and my bread/noodles were brought up to that table rather than to the main dinning room.

I did not get sick once. All gluten-free meals were available in the main dinning room, and they had gluten-free bread on the breakfast buffet and sandwich bar so I could go there at lunch as well. I only had to fill out a request form ahead of time. The allow me to choose enough bread/pasta/brownies/etc for the duration of the cruise and they had more than enough. There is a small charge if you go over the allowed numbers, but it is minimal.

If you want to know more, feel free to PM me and I will be happy to chat with you.

My family lives just north of Fort Lauderdale in Pompano Beach. When we go there, we have eaten successfully at Pizza Fusion and Smokey Bones. They are both on Federal Highway and would require a taxi ride, though. I'll see if I can find anything out about what's near you.

      Thanks, I’m still dealing with the pain and tingling and itching and feeling like bugs or something crawling around on my face and scalp. It’s been a miserable experience. I saw my eye doc last week, the eye itself was okay, so they didn’t do anything. I did take a 7 day course of an antiviral. I’m hoping for a turnaround soon! My life is full of stress but I have been on / off the gluten free diet for the last year , after being talked into going back on gluten to have a biopsy, that looked okay. But I do have positive antibody levels that have been responsive  to a gluten free diet. I can’t help but wonder if the last year has caused all this.

      I don't think any apps are up to date, which is exactly why this happened to you. Most of the data in such apps is years old, and it doesn't get updated in real time. Ultimately there is no substitution for learning to read labels. The following two lists are very helpful for anyone who is gluten sensitive and needs to avoid gluten when shopping. It's very important to learn to read labels and understand sources of hidden gluten, and to know some general information about product labelling--for example in the USA if wheat is a possible allergen it must be declared on a product's ingredient label like this: Allergens: Wheat.

      What is the best gluten free scanner app? I have the "gluten-free Scanner" app. I scanned an almond joy and it says it contains gluten when the package is labeled gluten free

      Certainly, it would b wise to have a gene test done if your physician is open to it as it would provide some more data to understand what's going on. But keep in mind that the genetic test for celiac disease cannot be used as to diagnose celiac disease, only to establish the potential to develop active celiac disease. About 40% of the general population possess one or both of the primary genes known to be associated with the development of active celiac disease but only about 1% of the population actually develop active celiac disease. So, the gene test is an effective "rule out" tool but not an effective diagnostic tool.
