Hi everyone, just wanted to share our amazing success in eating out in Seattle on our recent vacation. We were traveling with two kids and my DH all of whom are gluten-free.

We ate successfully at:

Blackbird Bakery (yummy gluten-free berry muffins, chocochip cookies, and even fresh bread and rolls) and Casa Rojas (chips are freshly made and gluten-free) in Bainbridge.... Town and Country Market was great too, as is Central Market in Poulsbo. Mora Ice Cream, right behind the bakery even has gluten-free cones (albeit for $4.50 for a single scoop)

There is a great mexican restaurant on the steps from the waterfront to Pike Place Market maybe called El Puerco Lloron (chips here are not ok, but most everything else is... yummy freshly made corn tortillas were really a hit with my kids)

Cinnamon Bakery in Pike Place had gluten-free items my kids loved, but yikes, they were soooo expensive! $13 for three cookies...

Dinner at PF Changs in Westlake Center was great as usual. They made great substitutions for my kids to have gluten-free kids meals (there are no kid meals on the gluten-free menu). They happily ate chicken fried rice and pad thai noodles with chicken.

Garlic Jim's pizza was fantastic. I can't speak for the other locations, but West Seattle was fabulous. We had their pizza three times during the 2.5 weeks there. The kids would have eaten there every day if we had let them.

Anacortes.... go to Adrift Restaurant. They have a gluten-free menu and made great accommodations for the kids there too. The french fries are baked and therefore gluten-free and yummy too... a huge hit for the girls. My husband had the curried salmon with mashed sweet potatoes and said it was one of the best meals he has had anywhere. AMAZING!!!

Island's Inn in Anacortes provided us with gluten-free granola and let us bring our own waffles for their breakfast. Carol was so sweet to us there. The Market at Anacortes had a great gluten-free section too, and was the first place we spotted the new Betty Crocker cake mixes.

The co-op in Mt Vernon had great gluten-free supplies and even the Hagen's market there had pancake mix and more when we decided we wanted to bake while we were there.

Thanks Seattle for a great trip with full and happy bellies........ it was great!

Thanks! That will be a big help..

Now just to figure out if gluten is the culprit.

It's nice to know how many options there are now!

      Thankyou I did find out the Infectious disease is the route to go rather than dermatologist. I did reach out to two major hospitals and currently waiting on approval for one of them in Infectious Diseases to call me. I also did have implants ( I didn't know and sense not properly in my medical. Neither did surgeon)in 2006 and there was a leak 2023 during the same time I was dealing with covid, digestive issues, eyes and skin.Considering I " should  be fine" not consuming gluten/wheat, taking vitamins for sibo and STILL feeling terrible.It has to be parasites. I also take individual eye drops prescribed, could there be an issue there? Anyways my pcp thinks I need therapy because again they don't acknowledge my digestive issues because in my records it shows im fine, hintz the reason I had to go back to bay area hospital:(  I thought skin issues maybe sibo related but I feel and have seen and seriously trying not to think about it because it's disgusting.

      oops. I didn't see that before posting or I would have at least referenced it. The two recipes are pretty similar, but I think the newer one is a little simpler/faster. Next time though I will search more before posting.

      I love Middle Eastern food and eggplant, and here is another version we shared some time back:

      The following two lists are very helpful for anyone who is gluten sensitive and needs to avoid gluten when shopping. It's very important to learn to read labels and understand sources of hidden gluten, and to know some general information about product labelling--for example in the USA if wheat is a possible allergen it must be declared on a product's ingredient label like this: Allergens: Wheat.

      This may not be the cause, it's pure speculation on my part, but for 10-15 years I had a tingling/burning/electric-like shock sensation that emanated from my right-neck upward across the right-side of my head. I was worried about having a stroke or something so got all sorts of tests done, including an MRI, which found not much--only a minor degenerative disk in my neck--which I just accepted as the cause. Fast forward to when I was ~45 and I was hit with shingles in the EXACT place that this sensation would travel--I ended up with a very painful case of shingles that felt like the right-side of my head had been set on fire, and had the blistering and pain that ran along the exact path of nerves that I had felt this sensation travel along for the prior 10-15 years. For me, that time period was a shingles pre-cursor, and all those feelings were likely inflammation in my nerves. Needless to say I've not had this since getting my shingles vaccines at 50.  Your situation could very well be something else, but I just wanted to mention this possibility because your symptoms sound similar to what I experienced. I'm not sure if you're in the age range to get a shingles vaccine, but it may be something to consider.
