I Had A Sammmmmichhhh!

I went down to Lake Forest for work today. It was 2 pm and I was starving. I stopped by a food court type place on the corner of Trabuco and Bake Parkway. I stopped at the first place to peruse the menu on the window. The owner popped out and said "Are you hungry?" I said yes, I was starving but have food allergies. He said "what kind?" I told him gluten, then he took my hand and said come inside.

He owns two places next to each other, one a skewer/kabob place, and a pizzaria. We had a nice long chat, which ended in me having a beautiful eggplant parmesan SANDWICH. Oh it was beautiful! The bread tasted like King's Hawaiian! He has pizza, sammies, calzones, chicken parmesan, chicken fingers, jalepeno poppers..all gluten free!

Who would have guessed that I would happen upon a place like this. The owner's name is Bruce. He was previously a chef for an autistic home, and by default learned he was gluten sensitive. He takes great precautions to avoid CC. He told me that if I call ahead (2 days) he will make a full size pizza for us!

Great find! OC folks, head over there. The best part, the gluten-free prices are the same as the "regular."

6 hours later, I did not get sick!

Hi! What are the names of his places? I drive by that intersection all the time!

[Looking for answers]

I know that intersection too. Good tip, thanks!

Oh Geez, sorry Maggie, didn't realize I did not put in the name! The pizza/pasta place is called Cisero's Pizzaria, and the kabob place is called Skewers. It's on the southeast corner, in between the nail salon and the tire place. It's one of those circular food court things, and they are right in the middle of the horseshoe next to Quizno's. Enjoy!
