Rikki Tikki 2 Posted February 27, 2005 Report This Post (To report rule violations to admin) Share Posted February 27, 2005 I have been craving Chinese food and I really don't want to make it myself. Does anyone have any idea of what would be safe? Thanks Sally Nostaglia is a file that removes the rough edges from the good old days!!!! " 15 years of it's stress!"

Rikki Tikki 2 Posted February 27, 2005 Author Report This Post (To report rule violations to admin) Share Posted February 27, 2005 Thanks We don't have a resturant here with that name. Do you know if there are any specific foods that are ok? Thanks Sally Nostaglia is a file that removes the rough edges from the good old days!!!! " 15 years of it's stress!"

megzmc3611 0 Posted February 28, 2005 Report This Post (To report rule violations to admin) Share Posted February 28, 2005 I always order steamed chicken with vegetables (and brown rice) and bring my own gluten-free soy sauce (or other sauce) for added flavor! I personally do not trust any other items on the menu!! Megan Diagnosed Celiac in Feb 2004 Boston, MA Link to post Share on other sites
Guest jhmom Posted February 28, 2005 Report This Post (To report rule violations to admin) Share Posted February 28, 2005 Usually "white sauce" dishes are safe, just make sure they use "corn starch" instead of flour as their thickening agent. You could also get them to boil / steam the chicken and vegtables for you, thats what they do for me. I hope you find something safe! I know what it's like to crave chinese food Link to post Share on other sites
tarnalberry 314 Posted February 28, 2005 Report This Post (To report rule violations to admin) Share Posted February 28, 2005 I've had trouble with the steamed chicken (don't know if there was an additive, and the language barrier - I tried - was a bit of a problem), so I stick with steamed shrimp and veggies at the local place near me.

cdford 2 Posted February 28, 2005 Report This Post (To report rule violations to admin) Share Posted February 28, 2005 Anybody know what we might be able to eat at a Chinese restaurant that would also not contain soy?

sfortney 0 Posted March 17, 2005 Report This Post (To report rule violations to admin) Share Posted March 17, 2005 I have had a lot of success with our local Chinese places. Before going gluten free I almost always ate lo mein, but I have found that I can order chicken or shrimp fried rice without soy sauce or chow mei fun (rice noodles) (shrimp or chicken) without soy sauce and add wheat free tamiri to it after I get it and it is wonderful! Be warned, however, I tried this at a Chinese eatery this last weekend in South Orange, New Jersey and was not received well. The cook got really upset and told me he could not make either for me without sauce; it just couldn't be done. I cancelled my order and left. Thai Kitchen has flavored rice noodle packets (kind of like Ramen noodles-only gluten free) that are very good. I bought some at the Whole Food Market for $.69 per packet. They can also be order online. Link to post Share on other sites
