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.

      This Common Blood Pressure Drug Can Mimic Celiac Disease Symptoms

      Dang. I had a moment of hope that I could change my BP med and get off the gluten-free diet. Nope. More seriously, I hadn't seen this articles about this phenomenon before. This is one of the possible answers for people who post here about having celiac symptoms (including biopsy) but normal IgA levels, especially if they are saying that diet isn't helping...

      Zaalouk moroccan eggplant salad

      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.

      Terrible Neurological Symptoms

      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...

      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.

      Welcome to the celiac.com community, @Richard Rusnak! The short answer is "No". Barley is a gluten-containing grain. The three gluten-containing grains are wheat, barley and rye.  Barley and rye contain less gluten than wheat but still should be avoided. Understand that smaller amounts of gluten may not produce a noticeable reaction in so far as symptoms go, but they still may be causing some inflammation in the gut. Products derived from gluten-containing grains should also be avoided, for instance malt and malt flavoring.
