Uno's Chicago Grill

Hey everyone!

Today I dined out at Uno's Chicago Grill. To my surprise not only do they have a full gluten free menu (not just a print out off the web anymore) but they also have gluten free pizza crusts. The crusts they are using right now are premade and ordered off of gluten free.com; however the manager stated that in two weeks they would have their own, fresh, made in house gluten free crusts. He said to spread the word. I'm really looking forward to their in house crust!

I'd also like to say the staff was unbelievably helpful at the University Blvd location. The manager made my pizza himself and brought it to me. They then labeled our to go boxes so that we wouldn't get the gluten pizza and the gluten free pizza mixed up. Some places you leave feeling like you've just bothered and irritated everyone with all your special requests, but they left me feeling very welcome and happy to have me. Go Unos!!!!

Glad you have an Uno that is on the ball. My recent experience with the gluten-free service, or lack of, at UNO's Brooklyn location was a disaster.

I posted on the other thread, but thought I'd mention it here too. We went to the Uno's in Raleigh last night and had a great experience, no glutening! We'll definitely be going back.

hate to be a downer on everyone but I was very unimpressed with their pizza.. to be one of VERY Few offering gluten-free pizza, it was a bummer. I know that UNOs is the best deep dish pizza around so they should of come with something a little better! I used to work there, and I am still friends with management, and other other day the individual that handles the gluten-free menu was there, trust me I got his info and I plan on emailing him and giving him many suggestions. Resturants and other companies need to realize how much money they could be making with a gluten-free option on their menus! I am not just gonna sit around and accept the fact that I have to live with something that makes me eat pizza that tastes like card board. OH Hell to the naw! lol

I am very confident in my cooking ablities and my entrepreneur mind set.. Watch out world Gluten free is the new black! lol

:huh: I'm happy for you, but I am puzzled. A gluten-free pizza made in a normal pizza kitchen seems impossible. Wheat flour used in normal pizza crust is airborne. Most pizza shops have every square inch of space covered in wheat flour. I don't even take a chance on a salad from a pizza shop!

      I don't see how cornstarch could alter the test results. Where did you read that?

      For pain relief I take a combination of Thiamine (Benfotiamine), Pyridoxine B 6, and Cobalamine B12.  The combination of these three vitamins has analgesic effects.  I have back pain and this really works.  The B vitamins are water soluble and easily excreted.   Hope this helps!  Keep us posted on your results!

      Taking Probiotics but Still Getting Sick After Gluten – Advice?

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      Welcome to the forum, @Xravith. I experienced similar symptoms before my diagnosis.  Mine were due to the loss of vitamins and minerals, essential nutrients we must get from our food.  With Celiac Disease, the intestinal lining, made up of thousands of villi, gets damaged and cannot absorb essential vitamins and minerals, especially the eight B vitamins.  The loss of Thiamine B 1 can cause muscle loss, inability to gain weight, edema (swelling), fatigue, migraines and palpitations.  Low thiamine can cause Gastrointestinal Beriberi with symptoms of nausea, abdominal pain and bloating.   Thiamine is only stored for a couple of weeks, so if you don't absorb enough from food daily, as the thiamine deficiency worsens physical symptoms gradually worsen.  If you're eating lots of carbs (like gluten containing foods usually do), you need more thiamine to process them (called high calorie malnutrition).  Thiamine works with all the other B vitamins, so if you're low in one, you're probably getting low in the others, too, and minerals like iron, magnesium, zinc, and calcium, as well as Vitamin D..  Talk to your doctor about checking for nutritional deficiencies.  Most doctors rarely recognize vitamin deficiency symptoms, especially in thiamine. Get a DNA test to see if you carry any Celiac genes.  If you do not have genetic markers for Celiac, it's probably IBS.  If you do have genetic markers for Celiac, it's probably Celiac.  I was misdiagnosed with IBS for years before my Celiac diagnosis.   Keep us posted on your progress. P. S. Deficiency in thiamine can cause false negatives on antibody tests, as can diabetes and anemia.

      No she didn't because if I want to ask I have to pay 700$ for 1 hour appointment so I couldn't even ask. I read that fillers like cornstash can alter the result and tylenol contains it so that's why I tried to find someone who can answer.

      Did the GI doc give you any rational for stopping the Tylenol during the gluten challenge? I have never heard of this before and I can't imagine a good reason for it. Ibuprofen, maybe, because it is an anti inflammatory but acetaminophen?  I don't see that it would have any impact on the test results to take Tylenol.
