I just found out that I have Celiac Disease. I am 38yrs. old and I am afraid to eat out. I was wondering if anyone knows of any safe places to eat in the Chicago South Suburbs.

I don't live in Chicago, but I just came back yesterday from a long weekend there. Obviously someone who lives there can be a much bigger help but I can tell you that there are tons of restaurants in Chicago that are gluten friendly.

I was there for a wedding so several of the meals I had there were in venues I did not choose, but one restaurant we went to of our own choosing was Weber Grill. They have a gluten free menu and everything there is incredible! My only complaint is that they don't have one in NY and I now want to fly to Chicago every weekend to eat there. LOL!!

We also went to Lou Malnalti's for gluten-free pizza. I wasn't really a huge fan of it, but it's possibly trying once to decide for yourself.

I heard about a place called Cafe Ba Ba Reebo that is gluten friendly. It is a tapas / paella restaurant. I really wanted to try it but unfortunately we only had 1 dinner during the weekend that we were not part of wedding events and couldn't make it there. I've heard it's excellent.

If you do a search on here, people have mentioned several other restaurants in the suburbs of Chicago that have gluten free menus.

How far south are you? (I'm from Chicago Heights, but live in Minnesota, now.)

Aurelio's in Homewood does gluten-free pizza, as do some of their franchises. My son and I had it once and did fine. (They just use Kinnickinnick crusts, I think, but it's the toppings that I love, so I was happy! I thought I'd never have Aurelio's again.)

I don't get down that way much anymore, though, and have only been gluten-free for about a year, so I don't know much else, yet. I can see where my folks have had good luck when they've been back in town, but it may be a few days.

      Gluten Free Cannabis Edibles

      By ShadowLoom · Posted

      I’ve used tinctures and made my own edibles with gluten-free ingredients to stay safe. Dispensary staff don’t always know about gluten, so I double-check labels or just make my own.

      Damage after 13 years gluten free

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      It's great to hear that there are some good doctors out there, and this is an example of why having a formal diagnosis can definitely be helpful.

      Update: I have a wonderful new gastroenterologist. She wants to be sure there’s nothing more serious, like refractory celiac, going on. She ordered various tests including some micronutrient tests that no one has ever ordered before.  I’m deficient in folate and zinc and starting supplements for both. I’m so glad I decided to go to a new GI!

      Autoimmune diseases tend to cluster. Many of them are found close together on the chromosomes.

      Just giving another update... I was referred to rheumatology, and they suspect that I may also be dealing with fibromyalgia (it has not been formally diagnosed, but just suggested at this point).  So, I am continuing with the anti-inflammatory diet and vitamins and still working to keep getting rid of all these hidden gluten sources, but I also do have another possible explanation for some of the issues that I'm dealing with.
