I will be spending a few days in Manhattan and am looking for kid-friendly gluten free options near our hotel, which is on W. 63rd. I know there are plenty of options throughout the city, but specifically need something for when we arrive w/ 2 tired children (ages 4 and 6) right around dinner time.

Thanks!

I've eaten at both of these places and have been very happy with both. They each have a special, gluten-free menu available.

I was in New York last week - we dined out at Sambucas (mentioned previously). It's right off of Central Park so if you're "doing the park" it's handy. My only issue is I ate too darn much ! :rolleyes:

It's a family style restaurant - the pasta dishes are huge, even the smaller sizes. My DH & I wished we had shared one of those (yeah, the smaller one). The waitress did tell us that's the way they are set up - so you could share. They also have a kids' menu, but I don't think it's gluten-free. The gluten-free menu has some chicken dishes, salads, appetizers, and lots of pasta dishes. They also had Redbridge beer.

Pala Pizza has gluten free pizza and delivers if you're in their area.

Babycakes bakery is there too - it's small but if you need treats, they're yummy (they're off China Town).

Thanks for the input - we have 4 days, so I plan to try them all!

I go to the Upper West side 3-4 times a year. Sambuca's is YUMMY!!!!!!!!!!!!

If you get down to Greenwich Village you MUST go to Risoterria at the corner of Bleecker and Morton- gluten-free pizza, pasta, breadsticks and yummy desserts. I dream about Joe's Famous Fudgie's- they're chocolate frosting sandwiched between two big, yummy bakery style chocolate chip cookies! It's small but great!!!!!!!!!!

For the UWS, as previously mentioned there is Sambuca. Also, there is Nice Matin (which I haven't tried yet, but I believe it's a bit pricey) and Pizzeria Uno.

NYC has tons of great restaurants with gluten free menus. Enjoy!

The gluten-free menu features soccas, a pizza-like dish made with chickpea flour.

I figured I'd add one more, since you'll be there for four days.

Thanks for all the responses! Looks like it will be easy to eat out, and I look forward to it!

I went to Nice Matin for lunch today and it was excellent! And not pricey as I previously had thought. They have both indoor and outdoor seating which is always nice. I had grilled chicken with bacon and roasted red peppers on a toasted Katz's gluten-free Challah roll. It was delicious! The gluten-free brunch menu is pretty extensive.

I definitely recommend Nice Matin for your trip. In addition to being on the UWS (your desired locale), they have great food and a wonderful atmosphere. Sit at a table outside and you can do some great people watching :)

Thanks, Jillian! I love going to brunch - we'll definitely give it a try!

      Yes, I, too, have osteoporosis from years of malabsorption, too.  Thiamine and magnesium are what keep the calcium in place in the bones.  If one is low in magnesium, boron, selenium, zinc, copper, and other trace minerals, ones bone heath can suffer.  We need more than just calcium and Vitamin D for strong bones.  Riboflavin B 2, Folate B 9 and Pyridoxine B 6 also contribute to bone formation and strength.   Have you had your thyroid checked?  The thyroid is important to bone health as well.  The thyroid uses lots of thiamine, so a poorly functioning thyroid will affect bone heath.

      That sounds so very likely in my case! I will absolutely ask my doctor on my next bone check coming up in March... Thanks a lot!

      Calcium levels as measured in the blood can be quite deceiving as the body will rob calcium from the bones to meet demands for it by other bodily functions. Also, supplementing with calcium can be counterproductive as it tends to raise gut pH and decrease absorption. More often than not, the problem is poor absorption to begin with rather than deficiency of intake amounts in the diet. Calcium needs an acidic environment to be absorbed. This is why so many people on PPIs develop osteoporosis. The PPIs raise gut pH. And some people have high gut PH for other reasons. Low pH equates to a more acidic environment whereas high pH equates to a more basic (less acidic) environment.

      Kind thanks for all this valuable information! Since my Folate was/is low and also my Calcium, there IS a chance I am low in B vitamins... My doctor only measured the first two, oh and Zinc as I has twisted her arm and guess what, that was mega low too. So who knows, until I get myself tested properly, what else I am deficient in... I did a hair mineral test recently and it said to avoid All sources of Calcium. But this is confusing for me as my Ca is so low and I have osteoporosis because of this. It is my Adjusted Ca that is on the higher side and shouldn't be. So am not sure why the mineral test showed high Ca (well, it was medium in the test but relative to my lowish Magnesium, also via hair sample, it was high I was told). But anyway, thanks again for the VitB download, I will look into this most certainly!

      Hello good afternoon, I was wondering if anyone has ever brought their anti-allergy pills? I have been wanting to use their Cetirizine HCI 10mg. They are called HealthA2Z and distributed by Allegiant Health.I’m also Asthmatic and these allergies are terrible for me but I also want to be sure they don’t have any sort of gluten compound.    I have tried calling them but to no avail. Has anyone ever used them? If so, did you had any problems or no problems at all?    thank you
