Traveling To Vegas, Utah, And Arizona - Safe Places To Eat?


Berta

Recommended Posts

Berta Newbie

I am going on a 2 week road trip to visit national parks in the Southwest and have eaten out only once since celiac diagnosis 14 months ago. I am very concerned about finding safe places to eat. Some of these places are remote so I will be bringing plenty of snacks and emergency food just in case I'm desperate. Does anyone have eating suggestions for any of these places? Any suggestions about gluten-free dehydrated food that I can pack?

[*]Las Vegas

[*]in Utah: Springdale, Tropic,Torrey, Moab

[*]in Arizona: Chinle, Sedona

Any advice will be much appreciated!

Hi,

Sedona has a pizza place called Picazzo's that makes gluten-free pizza.

Sounds like a great trip.

I recommend Troias in Sedona -- 1885 West Highway 89A, www.troias.com. They have rice pasta and gluten free pizzas, a wide range of sauces and toppings, delicious salads, make everything from fresh ingredients and generally are gluten-aware and passionate about their food. If you're a bit nervous about eating out, this is a great place to start. Sam and Rosanne Troia will look after you very well. On a 4-week trip around Arizona and California this was by far the best restaurant for our coeliac-suffering daughter, who said the pizza was the best she had ever had!

I second the Picazzo's pizza, it is fantastic. I would drive from WA state to AZ just to get one of their pizzas if I could afford the gas!

      Do you eat in restaurants, or food prepared in restaurants?

      Thank you, I think with the initial blood tests they did actually do the IgA tests first to make sure those are normal! I am wondering if there are any tests that actually test for the presence of the gluten protein? From my understanding, all of these test for gluten antibodies, which in the case of refractory celiac would switch to a gluten-independent mechanism of activation. Because my ttg levels havent changed at all with my increasingly strict diet, I am concerned about distinguishing between the possibilities that 1) I am super sensitive to very very small amounts of gluten and am getting cross contamination from somewhere I haven't identified or 2) have refractory celiac where even if I were to eliminate gluten 100%, my immune system is stuck in this activated state or is reacting to something else. The course of action should be different in these scenarios - in scenario 1, I should really lock in and stop eating processed foods all together (even if labeled gluten-free?) and identify any possible source of contamination no matter how small, but scenario 2 would require some other intervention like corticosteroids or a clinical trial. If I could somehow test the actual presence or amount of gluten in my body, I would think that could distinguish between these possibilities - if gluten is present it is more likely scenario 1, and if gluten is not present it's more likely scenario 2. I would probably need a test I could take regularly like once a day

      That is true, but they are not a bad place to start. I recommend ones One A Day without iron, unless you need iron. You can definitely add other supplements over time if needed, but it's a good starting point that can address a variety of nutrient deficiencies.
