I've read good things about Udi's cafe's in the Denver area. I've never been to Denver since going gluten-free, but check out their site. We love their bread.

Good luck! We just got back from a 5 day trip and traveling can be so hard. Luckily we found a few resturants in the town we were in and ate their often. Also, PFCHangs has expanded their gluten-free menu and now has lunch bowls and beef items as well.

Have fun!

I'm hoping to get to Denver this summer to visit my daughter and family and hope to try some of these restaurants.

How long will you be here and where are you staying? It will be easier to give suggestions if I know where you are. It's very easy to eat gluten free, affordably in the Denver area.

Udis is a must, no matter what end of town you're on. There are pizza and pasta options around town, in addition to the chains.

I am only going to be there two days not sure where I am going to be staying yet, so anywhere around town would be fine.

UDIs: Open Original Shared Link (sandwiches, pizza, fries)

Beau Jo's: Open Original Shared Link (gluten free pizza)

Noodles: Open Original Shared Link (pasta--you can have rice noodles with many of the dishes or the pad thai which is gluten free as-is)

Garlic Jim's: Open Original Shared Link

Maggianos: Open Original Shared Link (pricey, but worth it)

Also PF Chang's (downtown), and Pei Wei have gluten free menus. If you end up outside of town there are, of course, Outback Steakhouse restaurants.

Check out denver celiacs website, as we have a lot of restaurants listed. Some easy (and price managaeable ones!) include Tokyo Joe's - manylocations. Rice bowls with gluten free teriyaki and soy sauce. Tell them it's an allegy alert. This is one of my favorite places.

I can't believe I forgot to mention Ling and Louie's. There are two locations--one at Stapleton/Northfield and one in Downtown Denver. Unbelievable sweet and sour chicken that is gluten-free. The downtown location also stocks Redbridge beer.

Blue Bonnet on Broadway just south of Alameda is a lifesaver. There are several Montana Ted's around, pricier, but safe, and I am so sensitive, it is beyond annoying.

If you like mexican, along with Blue Bonnet, Hacienda Colorado has a few locations around town. About $8-13 per meal, but I avoid the chips and don't have a problem.

Blue Sky Cafe is in Lakewood, near the Colorado Mills Mall, I had slight cross-contamination there, but the food was good enough I want to go back and try somthing else (had an omelet).

There are a couple of Mimi's Cafe's around town. (I haven't been there too often).

And great quick and easy local favorites are Q'doba, Garbanzo, Chipotle. Yummmmm.

Enjoy!

      Just a gluten free diet is not enough.  Now you have to identify and replenish your malnutrition.  Celiac disease is co-morbid with malabsorption syndrome.  Low vitamin D, Low Thiamine caused Gastointeston Beriberi, low choline, low iodine are common the general population, and in newly diagnosed Celiacs in the western culture its is more likely.  It takes time to heal and you need to focus on vitamins and minerals.  Gluten free foods are not fortified like regular processed foods.

      Dear Kitty Since March I have been following your recommendations regarding vitamins to assist with various issues that I have been experiencing.  To recap, I am aged 68 and was late diagnosed with Celiac about 12 years ago.  I had been experiencing terrible early morning headaches which I had self diagnosed as hypoglycaemia.  I also mentioned that I had issues with insomnia, vertigo and brain fog.   It's now one year since I started on the Benfotiamine 600 mg/day.  I am still experiencing the hypoglycaemia and it's not really possible to say for sure whether the Benfotiamine is helpful.  In March this year, I added B-Complex Thiamine Hydrochloride and Magnesium L-Threonate on a daily basis, and I am now confident to report that the insomnia and vertigo and brain fog have all improved!!  So, very many thanks for your very helpful advice. I am now less confident that the early morning headaches are caused by hypoglycaemia, as even foods with a zero a GI rating (cheese, nuts, etc) can cause really server headaches, which sometimes require migraine medication in order to get rid off.  If you are able to suggest any other treatment I would definitely give it a try, as these headaches are a terrible burden.  Doctors in the UK have very limited knowledge concerning dietary issues, and I do not know how to get reliable advice from them. Best regards,

      @rei.b,  I understand how frustrating starting a new way of eating can be.  I tried all sorts of gluten-free processed foods and just kept feeling worse.  My health didn't improve until I started the low histamine AIP diet.  It makes a big difference.   Gluten fits into opioid receptors in our bodies.  So, removing gluten can cause withdrawal symptoms and reveals the underlying discomfort.  SIBO can cause digestive symptoms.  SIBO can prevent vitamins from being absorbed by the intestines.  Thiamine insufficiency causes Gastrointestinal Beriberi (bloating, abdominal pain, nausea, diarrhea or constipation).  Thiamine is the B vitamin that runs out first because it can only be stored for two weeks.  We need more thiamine when we're sick or under emotional stress.  Gastric Beriberi is under recognised by doctors.  An Erythrocyte Transketolace Activity test is more accurate than a blood test for thiamine deficiency, but the best way to see if you're low in thiamine is to take it and look for health improvement.  Don't take Thiamine Mononitrate because the body can't utilize it well.  Try Benfotiamine.  Thiamine is water soluble, nontoxic and safe even at high doses.  I thought it was crazy, too, but simple vitamins and minerals are important.  The eight B vitamins work together, so a B Complex, Benfotiamine,  magnesium and Vitamin D really helped get my body to start healing, along with the AIP diet.  Once you heal, you add foods back in, so the AIP diet is worth doing for a few months. I do hope you'll consider the AIP diet and Benfotiamine.

      Imemsm, Most of us have experienced discontinued, not currently available or products that suddenly become seasonal.   My biggest fear about relocating from Maryland to Florida 5 years ago, was being able to find gluten-free foods that fit my restricted diet.  I soon found out that the Win Dixie and Publix supper markets actually has 99% of their gluten-free foods tagged, next to the price.  The gluten-free tags opened up a  lot of foods that aren't actually marked gluten-free by the manufacture.  Now I only need to check for my other dietary restrictions.  Where my son lives in New Hartford, New York there's a Hannaford Supermarket that also has a gluten-free tag next to the price tag.  Hopefully you can locate a Supermarket within a reasonable travel distance that you can learn what foods to check out at a Supermarket close to you.  I have dermatitis herpetiformis too and I'm very sensitive to gluten and the three stores I named were very gluten-free friendly.  Good Luck
