:rolleyes: A new ALL GLUTEN-FREE restaurant opened ten minutes from my house! It is located at Central Expressway and Parker Road in Plano, Texas. (Plano is in the north-east corner of the Dallas area.) The restaurant is called Laura's Bistro. I had the California club sandwich and chips. The gluten-free bread was awesome. I went back with the kids. We had fried shrimp, French fries, and fettuccini. Everything was wonderful. Check out the website at www.delicious-n-fit.com. She has baked things too -- cake, pie, cupcakes. We didn't try any because we were stuffed, but we will be back weekly!

It was Delicious n Fit when it was on Parker road. Laura just moved locations next to the Pancake house on 75 the name changed to Laura's Bistro. I haven't been to the new location yet, but we went to the old location on a regular basis. She always bakes my birthday cakes every year and I buy graham crackers in bulk during the holidays for pie crusts. The entire staff is also good with additional intolerances.

I love to encourage all Celiacs in DFW to support her business. She is also very kind on top of a great cook.

It is so sad, Laura's has closed....I never got to go. I think it is really messed up that in the DFW metroplex there was really only Laura's that was completely gluten free. I have found Sublime Bakery in Fort Worth that does make some gluten free items daily, but you have to either call ahead or get there early to get anything.

I am sad, as well, that Laura's has closed. But I don't believe she's down for the count.

She's still offering baked goods on a special order basis, and I truly believe if she can find a way to come back, she will.

A case of very bad timing. I recently bought a $50 coupon for Laura's Bistro for $25 through an offering linked to our local gluten-free group. Was so excited Saturday before last on the way there, only to find it closed.

Damn the bad luck!

best regards, lm

Larry, email Laura and see if she'll honor that coupon in some way. She's still doing 'special order' type baking, just not running the actual bistro anymore.

That is such a bummer they closed down!!!! I went there once with both my daughters - we loved our meal!!! It was a good hour drive though - so not somewhere I could go frequently. I was just telling my co-worker that I wanted to go back.

:(

      How Come Gluten Didnt Bother Me In Italy

      By Gigi2025 · Posted

      Hi Theresa,  A few of my friends have your same story. You may be right about barley, etc.  18 years ago at a football game while clapping, suddenly my 4th finger was in agony.  It looked like a vein had burst. It was blue for a couple hours, then disappeared.  Finally realized it happened every time when drinking beer.  It's occurred several times over the years when opening a jar, lifting something that was a bit heavy, holding on to tight to something.  Immediate icing stops the pain and discoloration.  Now avoiding wheat in the US, it rarely happens.  Thanks for the reminder.  Will have Entero Labs run another test. Unfortunately they've relocated to Switzerland/Greece.

      Blood results

      By Russ H · Posted

      The EMA test is an old and less sensitive test for anti-tTG2 antibodies. It relies on a technician using a microscope to check for fluorescence of a labelled substrate (typically monkey oesophagus or human umbilicus), giving a simple positive/negative result. It is similar to running a standard anti-tTG2 test but with a high cut-off, making it more specific but less sensitive. Transient rises in tTG2 can be caused by e.g. viral infections and inflammation. Very high levels of anti-tTG2 (>x10 standard range) are almost certainly coeliac disease but moderately raised levels can have several causes apart from coeliac disease. Other food allergies can cause villi blunting but that is much rarer than coeliac disease or other non-coeliac causes. Not All That Flattens Villi Is Celiac Disease: A Review of Enteropathies

      How Come Gluten Didnt Bother Me In Italy

      Maybe you have a low  intolerance to Wheat.   Rye, Barley and Malt are the gluten in Celiac disease.  It has always been stated Wheat and Gluten, not just a Wheat intolerance.  Barley will keep me in bed for (2) weeks.  Gut, Migrains, Brain fog, Diahrea.  It is miserable.  And when I was a toddler the doctor would give me a malt medicine because I always had Anemia and did not grow.  Boy was he off.  But at that time the US didn't know anyone about Celiac.  This was the 1940s and 50s.  I had my first episode at 9 months and did not get a diagnosis until I was 50.  My immune system was so shot before being diagnoised, so now I live with the consequences of it. I was so upset when Manufacturers didn't want to label their products so they added barley to the product.  It was mostly the cereal industry.  3 of my favorite cereals were excluded because of this. Malt gives me a bad Gut reaction.

      Thanks much Scott.  Well said, and heeded.   I don't have Celiac, which is fortunate.

      Possible celiac - need advice

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Do you have the results of your endoscopy? Did you do a celiac disease blood panel before that?  Here is more info about how to do a gluten challenge for a celiac disease blood panel, or for an endoscopy: and this recent study recommends 4-6 slices of wheat bread per day:
