Fireside Pies - Plano, Tx

To anyone living in North Texas (DFW area) - you need to check out Fireside Pies. I'm sure that most of you already know about them, but if this reaches even one person then I'll feel good. :)

The pizza here is the best that I have had anywhere - period. Boston's is definitely acceptable too, but Fireside just took it up a notch in my opinion. It is a thinish type crust, but the flavor is amazing. They actually source the dough from a company down in Austin that produces gluten-free pizza dough.

The prices are somewhat high (even for non-gluten free customers), but it is well worth it in my opinion. The pizza was large enough that I had a decent amount left over.

I personally went to the one in Plano (Shops at Legacy), but they also have other locations in the DFW area. Just check their website for locations. I'm giving this place two thumbs way up!

I wanted to add my two cents. I found out they had gluten free pizza earlier this month and just made it out last night. It was worth it - and by far the best gluten free pizza I have had to date. The one at Legacy just started stocking Red Bridge beer, also. While Red Bridge is not my favorite gluten-free beer - it was priceless to order beer and pizza at a resturant!

I'm so excited!! I have just started my gluten-free way of life and live in McKinney, but get over to the shops at Legacy quite often. I will make this my next outing!

I'm so excited!! I have just started my gluten-free way of life and live in McKinney, but get over to the shops at Legacy quite often. I will make this my next outing!

one quick piece of advice - they are only open for dinner starting at 5 each day. i would highly recommend getting there close to 5. after 5:30 or so the line was out the door and the wait was 30 minutes or so. then again, they have a nice looking bar, so maybe the wait wouldn't be so bad ;)

i hope you enjoy it as much as i did! since i live no more than 5 minutes away, i'm sure it will be a recurring restaurant for me B)

The wait is long and they don't take reservations. We took our pager next door to Fox Sports Grill to watch the Mavs. game while we waited.

That's exciting! Thank you for the info. I live near Plano and had no idea about Fireside Pies. I eat at Bostons now and then, and it's pretty good. It's always great to have options! We Celiacs usually do not have very many.

      Unusual bright yellow but odourless discharge

      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!

      Allergy medication: cetirizine by the HealthA2Z is it gluten free?

      By ElisaAllergiesgluten · Posted

      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
