French Quarter Restaurant In Hollywood, Fl

Attended a event at this facility last night, an awards dinner for my fiance's fire department. Myself and another lieutenant's wife were celiac. The coordinator of event alerted them ahead of time, but had not received a concrete response of what would be available, so I did the "chicken in a ziploc in my purse" just in case. I was pleasantly surprised when I introduced myself to one of the servers, he knew immediately about the gluten free requirements, told me to help myself to the gluten free salads available (buffet for everyone) and he would bring me my plate when I was ready. When my meal was presented, it was a GINORMOUS portion of chicken and beef with vegetables and new potatoes. It was excellent, and the waitstaff extremely attentive. I was so impressed.

The restaurant is tucked away inside the Mardi Gras casino.

I just found out that normally this restaurant is a Vegas-style buffet. Because we were there for a special event they made accommodations, but I don't know how feasible that would normally be, so be aware

      If you have DH you will likely also want to avoid iodine, which is common in seafoods and dairy products, as it can exacerbate symptoms in some people. This article may also be helpful as it offers various ways to relieve the itch:

      You might also consider a low iodine diet as iodine is know to exacerbate dermatitis herpetiformis. But be careful with that as well as there are health problems that can accrue from iodine deficiency.

      Hi, Yes, the rash has gone. I still get the itches but there is nothing to see now, apart from a lot of discoloured areas where the rash was worst. Occasionally I get a single lump come up, a bit like hives, but no bigger than a pea and it goes after 24hrs and a steroid cream application. And yes, giving the gluten-free diet 110%. Very careful...

      Welcome to the the celiac.com community, @suek54! Is the Dapsone getting the rash under control? Are you practicing a gluten free diet yet? The only known cause for dermatitis herpetiformis is celiac disease.

Very careful about any cross contamination.  This is my fifth autoimmune condition so well and truly on that bandwagon.
