We just got back from the Gluten-Free Summit in Providence, and I wanted to share the restaurants we dined at while in Rhode Island and Massachusetts. The Summit was phenomenal, and we enjoyed all of the chefs cooking and baking for us!

The Grille on Main - 50 Main Street, East Greenwich, RI - undeniably the most incredible restaurant we have dined at since being diagnosed! We would eat at this restaurant every night for a week if we didn't live in California!. Chef Russell and the Eric the manager treated us like royalty! We had the absolute best pizza we have ever eaten (including gluten pizza), buffalo wings, sweet potato fries, shrimp & chicken stir fry, scallops with fried goat cheese and apple chutney, a huge peanut butter cookie sandwich with vanilla ice cream in the middle and creme brulee. Our party left very full and satisfied after this delicious meal!

Smokey Bones - 31B Universal Blvd., Warwick, RI - great Gluten-free BBQ menu! We had BBQ ribs and loaded mashed potatoes!

Pei Wei - 4 Chapel View Blvd., Cranston, RI - sweet and sour chicken with rice! Yum! There are no Pei Wei's yet in Northern California yet.

Rancho Chico - 52 Washington Street, Plainville, MA - the most delicious Mexican food we have eaten since being diagnosed. We had nachos, fajitas and enchiladas. Even the tortilla chips were Gluten-free!

Burton's Grill - 1363 Boylston Street, Boston, MA - salmon with baked potato and broccoli, roasted chicken on a carrot and green bean risotto and warm chocolate torte.

Boynton Pizza - 117 Highland Street, Worcester, MA - their pizza was absolutely delicious because their crust was crisp on the bottom, very cheesy and a little bit of grease that we miss so much on our pizzas. We actually drove down from Boston the next day to enjoy their pizza again for lunch! They also had a Gluten-free chocolate mousse cake "to die for!"

Four Seasons Hotel (The Bristol) - 200 Boylston Street, Boston, MA - Chef Angel at The Bristol made us Gluten-free french toast, blueberry muffins and Gluten-free almond currant scones! Just give the chefs some notice and they will make you anything - even Gluten-free pancakes!

The only restaurant we did not get to was Alice's Diner at 2663 S Main Street, Fall River, MA. We were so full from a great dinner the night before, we just could not eat breakfast that morning! Alice's has a Gluten-free menu for breakfast and lunch.

Enjoy!

Although I did not attend the gluten-free Summit, I have been to many of the restaurants you have mentioned here as I live in Massachusetts and I dine out with a dining group from R.I. You are correct, these places are excellent and well worth a visit. It's a really good place to live, as far as being gluten-free! :D

I took my DD to the Boynton Restaurant today for pizza and found out that they put Wheat Starch in it. There is a disclaimer at the bottom of the gluten-free menu stating that they use small amounts of wheat starch in the pizza, and yet they are certifying it as gluten free. The waitress even told us about it before taking our order to be sure we saw it. How can this be? Don't celiacs have to avoid wheat starch? Needless to say, we left the restaurant and ate elsewhere.

I would like to add to the great list for eating gluten-free in RI.

Providence: Kabob and Curry Restaurant, Waterplace Restaurant (a Pinelli Mara restaurant... all their restaurants have gluten-free menus, even though they are not on line), Pizzaria Unos, Red Stripe in Wayland Square (has gluten-free french fries and Redbridge Beer, all their food is fab and even a manager is gluten-free herself), Apsara Thai Food on Hope Street.

Pawtucket: Rasoi Indian Restaurant (same owner as Kabob and Curry, but much better atmosphere). Great menu with all items marked as to gluten free, vegan, spicy, etc.

Newport: Tucker's Bistro.... loved this place as a really nice night out. gluten-free bread on the table, every item on the regular menu is available gluten-free (except a few desserts). We ate four courses and loved them all.

Narragansett: Blue Wave Pizza Call ahead b/c gluten-free crust takes one hour. Owner makes each one to order from scratch. yummy!!!

If you're in the city, Nice Slice on Thayer St. (providence) has gluten free pizza! I recommend anything with BBQ sauce! I can't get enough of it!!

      Supplements for those Diagnosed with Celiac Disease

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      @Scatterbrain, Thiamine Vitamin B1 and amino acid Taurine work together.  Our bodies can make Taurine from meats consumed.  Our bodies cannot make Thiamine and must consume thiamine from food.  Meat is the best source of B vitamins like Thiamine.   Vegetarians may not make sufficient taurine since they don't eat meat sources of taurine.  Seaweed is the best vegetarian source of taurine. Vegetarians may not consume sufficient Thiamine since few veggies are good sources.  Whole grains, legumes, and nuts and seeds contain thiamine.  Many of these sources can be hard to digest and absorb for people with Celiac disease.   You may find taking the forms of thiamine called Benfotiamine or TTFD (tetrahydrofurfuryl disulfide) and a B Complex will give the benefits you're looking for better than taurine alone.

      My only proof

      @Jmartes71, I went to Doterra's site and had a look around.  The Doterra TerraZyme supplement really jumped out at me.  Since we, as Celiacs, often have digestive problems, I looked at the ingredients.  The majority of the enzymes in this supplement are made using black mold, Aspergillus!  Other enzymes are made by yeast Saccharomyces!  Considering the fact that Celiac often have permeable intestines (leaky gut syndrome), I would be very hesitant to take a product like this.  Although there may not be live black mold or yeast in the product, the enzymes may still cause an immune system response which would definitely cause inflammation throughout the body.   Skin, eyes, and intestines are all made from the same basic type of cells.  Your skin on the outside and eyes can reflect how irritated the intestines are on the inside.  Our skin, eyes, and intestines all need the same vitamins and nutrients to be healthy:  Vitamin A, Niacin B3 and Tryptophan, Riboflavin B2, Biotin B7, Vitamin C, and Omega Threes.  Remember that the eight B vitamins work together.  Just taking high doses of just one, vitamin like B12, can cause a deficiency in the others.  Taking high doses of B12 can mask a Folate B9 deficiency.  If you take B12, please take a B Complex, too.  Thiamine B1 can be taken in high doses safely without toxicity.  Thiamine is needed by itself to produce energy so every cell in the body can function, but Thiamine also works with the other B vitamins to make life sustaining enzymes and digestive enzymes.  Deficiencies in either Niacin, Vitamin C, or Thiamine can cause digestive problems resulting in Pellagra, Scurvy, and Gastrointestinal Beriberi.   If you change your diet, you will change your intestinal microbiome.  Following the Autoimmune Protocol Diet, a Paleo diet, will starve out SIBO bacteria.  Thiamine keeps bacteria in check so they don't get out of control as in SIBO.  Thiamine also keeps MOLDS and Yeasts from overgrowth.   Menopause symptoms and menstrual irregularities are symptomatic of low Vitamin D.   Doctors are not as knowledgeable about malnutrition as we need them to be.  A nutritionist or dietician would be more helpful.   Take control of your diet and nutrition.  Quit looking for a pill that's going to make you feel better overnight.  The Celiac journey is a marathon, not a sprint.   "Let food be your medicine, and let medicine be your food."

      Are Lindt chocolate balls gluten free?

      By RUKen · Posted

      The Lindt (Lindor) dairy-free oat milk truffles are definitely gluten-free, and (last time I checked) so are the white chocolate truffles and the mint chocolate truffles.

      Supplements for those Diagnosed with Celiac Disease

      I've used magnesium taurinate and magnesium taurate vitamins.  Didn't notice much of a difference when I used them.

      Anyone experimented with Taurine supplementation either via electrolyte powders or otherwise? Thanks
