Gluten Free North Carolina - New Bern/beaufort/greensboro

We are heading to New Bern, NC in two weeks and I have contacted a few people in North Carolina but they really weren't too up on gluten-free restaurants in the area.

Does anyone know of a good place near New Bern, NC? We will be there for a week...

We will only be in Greensboro for an evening and I'm sure there is probably an Outback somewhere around that we can drive to, but I was hopeful I might find some experienced diners in the area that could offer an alternative from the limited menu's at many chains and maybe a good ice cream place.

We have found some great places in our area.. North Indianapolis/Noblesville, IN and know of a few in other states where we have traveled before.

Of course, we'll be packing the coolers for the drive but was looking forward to being able to dine out as a family on vacation... (So I don't spend my vacation cooking which is no different then being at home... :D)

We lived in New Bern for a year, up until September of '08. Not too many options (other than Outback and the usual chain options) that I can remember. There's a health food store called Nature's Basket with the usual options. If you are going to be somewhere with a kitchen, you might be able to get enough supplies there to help you out (Bob's Red Mill). Otherwise, I did find the people to be very helpful, so you might want to contact local restaurants like The Cow Cafe, a downtown ice cream shop, beforehand and ask about ingredients.

The truth is, there were so few options that we are considering moving back to Eastern NC and starting up a bakery with good gluten-free options!

Good luck.

Don't know if this will help you or not but, there is a fun site called Lame Advertisement. You just put in the area you are going to and get restaurant review for the area. They are not a gluten-free site, I have written to convince them to do this, but several of my reviews have gluten-free information on them. Their are also some yelpers that are following suit in their area's.

Also, google gluten-free restaurants and that area, usually something comes up.

[Hi, hope I am not too late. I couldn't remember my password when I first read this. lol Suggestions for Greensboro.. Bonefish Grill on Highpoint Rd. in front of Four Season Mall. gluten-free menu. Wonderful food, service, ambiance etc. gluten-free dessert too. Also, PF Chang's in Greensboro. Just ate there for my daughters b-day. Very good. Hope this helps.

      Celiac flare years after diagnosis

      Bread has about 8 g of protein per 100 g, so a piece of bread weighing 125 mg contains 10 mg of gluten. Bread has a density of about 0.25 g/ml, so 0.5 ml of bread contains 10 mg of gluten - i.e. a bread ball 1 cm in diameter. I think it would be unlikely to ingest this much from throwing bread out for the birds.

      Sciatica came to mind for me as well. You might want to get some imaging done on your C-spine.

      Maybe this is sciatica? When mine acts up a little, I switch my wallet from one back pocket to the other. this isn't a substitute for more serious medical help, but for me it's a bandaid.

      Terrible Neurological Symptoms

      OK so I just learned something completely new about this for the first time in years, that is REALLY WEIRD. One of my nerves that likes to "burn" or whatever is doing it every time I bow my head! I mean it is completely repeatable. Literally every time. Once my head goes beyond a certain angle *boom*. Nerve goes mental (lower right leg pain). What the...

      Zaalouk moroccan eggplant salad

      I've only made this a couple of times but it's really easy and I love the flavor. If you can, use all of the ingredients to get the full palette of flavors. I use fresh or canned tomatoes and I don't worry about peeling them. If you don't have harissa, there are replacement recipes online. If you don't have the greens, I suggest adding a little chopped...

One of my nerves that likes to "burn" or whatever is doing it every time I bow my head! I mean it is completely repeatable. Literally every time. Once my head goes beyond a certain angle *boom*. Nerve goes mental (lower right leg pain). What the hell. I've never seen a direct trigger such as this before that I can recall. The pain was the usual type I get from this problem - I suspect somehow the head movement was interrupting descending inhibition processes, causing the pain to leak through somehow.

      I've only made this a couple of times but it's really easy and I love the flavor. If you can, use all of the ingredients to get the full palette of flavors. I use fresh or canned tomatoes and I don't worry about peeling them. If you don't have harissa, there are replacement recipes online. If you don't have the greens, I suggest adding a little chopped baby spinach or celery leaves to add a dash of green color to this red dish. Best eaten in first couple days because flavor tends to fade. Leftovers are still good, but not as vibrant. Ingredients 2 medium eggplants, partially peeled and cut into cubes (original recipe says 1 in, but I prefer 1/2 to 3/4 in) 2 tomatoes, peeled and crushed 4 garlic cloves, finely chopped or minced 1 tablespoon fresh flat-leaf parsley, chopped 1 tablespoon fresh cilantro, chopped ¼ cup extra virgin olive oil 2 tablespoons spicy harissa (I use Mina brand) 1 teaspoon cumin 1 teaspoon paprika ½ teaspoon black pepper 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar or lemon juice 1 tablespoon tomato paste (optional) Salt to taste Preparation     • Heat olive oil in skillet or pot over medium heat. Add all ingredients and cook for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally. Cover and cook on low heat for an additional 20 minutes, stirring occasionally.       • Serve warm or cold as a side or with bread for dipping. Enjoy!
