Dining In Saratoga Springs, Ny

Oh...happy news. My husband and I just returned from a weekend in Saratoga Springs, NY and as far as gluten-free goes saratoga has it down!

My first dinner was at, ironically, a restaurant called Wheatfields on Broadway! It's an Italian restaurant that makes their own light, yummy gluten free pasta from corn. All their sauces are free of gluten and the chicken can be prepared without flour/breading (the veal dishes are pre-breaded). I had an amazing chicken Dish with peppers and onions in a spicy pink sauce. It was so nice to go somewhere that had gluten free pasta!

Both nights I got gelato for dessert at Eugenio's Cafe (right across the sreet). It was amazing- many of the flavors like the sweet cream and chocolate are gluten free (and very decadent).

I had lunch at the Gideon Putnam resort in the grille. They had fewer options but I got a caesar salad with grilled chicken and it was fine!

For the second dinner we went to Open Original Shared Link

which was excellent Mexican. Many of the dishes were made with corn tortillas and the oes made with wheat were not fried in the fryer so I had the homemade tortilla chips as well. They had pork, chicken and beef dishes that were gluten free. I got chicken enchiladas with chile verde. They were delicious- slightly sweet (and old recipe that included white grape raisins) and spicy. Wish i could go there again tonight!

i lived in the greater Saratoga area until right around the time i was diagnosed. one of my co-workers mentioned Wheatfields and i kind of blew her off thinking, "duh, a place called WHEAT isn't going to have anything gluten-free!" But i checked their website and sure enough...to think i lived so close and i never took advantage of it!

i'm so glad to hear you had a good experience there...i'll have to drag my family the next time i go home to visit!

Good to know. On my way to Vermont I often stop in Saratoga for a bite. I'll look these places up next time.

      Welcome to the forum, @Ben98! If you have been consciously or unconsciously avoiding gluten because of the discomfort it produces then it is likely that your blood antibody testing for celiac disease has been rendered invalid. Valid testing requires regular consumption of generous amounts of gluten. The other strong possibility is that you have NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity) which shares many of the same symptoms with celiac disease but does not have the autoimmune component and thus does not damage the small bowel lining. It is 10x mor common than celiac disease. There is currently no test for NCGS. Celiac disease must first be ruled out. Some experts in the field believe it can be a precursor to the development of celiac disease. Having one or both of the primary genes for developing celiac disease does not imply that you will develop active celiac disease. It simply establishes the potential for it. About 40% of the population has the genetic potential but only about 1% develop active celiac disease.

      TTG blood test and total IGA tested on many occasions which have always remained normal, upper GI pain under my ribs since 2022. I had an endoscopy in 2023 which showed moderate gastritis. no biopsy’s were taken unfortunately. genetic test was positive for HLADQ2. extreme bloating after eating gluten, it’ll feel like I’ve got bricks in my stomach so uncomfortably full. the pain is like a dull ache under the upper left almost like a stitch feeling after a long walk. I am just wanting some advice has anyone here experienced gastritis with a gluten issue before? thank you

      "Conclusions: The urinary iodine level was significantly lower in women with postmenopausal osteoporosis, and iodine replacement may be important in preventing osteoporosis"  Body iodine status in women with postmenopausal osteoporosis Low iodine can cause thyroid problems, but Iodine deficiency will not show up in thyroid tests.  Iodine is important for healing, its job is to kill off defective and aging cells (Apoptosis). Skin, brain fog, nails, muscle tone all inproved when I started taking 600 mcg (RDA 150 - 1000 mcg) of Liquid Iodine drops. Some with dermatitis herpetiformis, Iodine exacerbates the rash.  I started at 1 drop (50 mcg) and worked up to 12 drops, but I don't have dermatitis herpetiformis.

      Thank you so much for sharing your experience and I found myself giggling with happiness as I read how your body reached such spring! And I hope that your current journey is also successful!! Definitely starting the food diary! So many amazing advices. And it’s very scary. It really hits all our soft spots as well as our confidence system. Most doctors I went thought I was underage despite being in my late 20s. Right now I look like am I twelve, but is also this body that’s taking so much, so I might as well love it too! Going to make the necessary changes and stay in this path. Thank you again! 🫶
