The Keg

Hi everyone,

I just got back from a long weekend in Montreal with my boyfriend. While there, we ate at The Keg in Old Montreal, and it was FANTASTIC. They have an entirely separate menu for gluten-free, and I was able to eat without any problems at all. I had the caesar salad with grilled chicken and sweet potato fries - yup, all gluten-free and no cc. Absolutely outstanding.

Also as a side note, in DT Montreal we went to a restaurant called Commensal, which is a veggie/vegan/gluten-free/Dairy-free/Soy-free etc option buffet restaurant. I picked all gluten-free options (tasty) but unfortunately still managed to get into something :( However, as I did not have any reaction at all in my stomach, but a very severe reaction in my ears and windpipe, I can only conclude right now that I was allergic to "something" I ate there - but it does seem that their Gluten-free options are safe, so check it out.

We were traveling just after my diagnosis, and ate there while in Montreal. The gluten-free menu did not yet exist in 2000, but they were aware and accommodating.

In the decade since, I have eaten at The Keg at numerous locations. Mostly they have been the two closest to where we live. I have never had a problem there. They are not as prominent in their gluten-free options as Outback are, but are solidly behind them. Sadly, Outback no longer operate in the province of Ontario.

I was born in Montreal but live in Texas. I haven't been in Montreal for 25 years. I wonder if they still have Orange Julius???? Mmmmmm that was really yummy. I think it has dried milk powder though.

I don't recall seeing any Orange Julius, so I can't say, sorry.

Peter - does that mean that The Keg in Toronto also offers gluten-free menus? I haven't been to The Keg in Toronto since going gluten-free, so I wasn't aware.

Too bad about The Outback - the more gluten-free-friendly restaurants, the better! Have you checked out Remezzo's pasta yet?

It is supposed to be chain-wide. Open Original Shared Link

No, I haven't been to Remezzo's yet.

      Oral thrush question

      By Wheatwacked · Posted

      Has your doctor tested your vitamin D?  Urine Iodine deficiency? Vitamin B12 deficiency can be a contributing factor for oral thrush, especial if you are vegan. Celiac Disease causes  malabsorbtion leading to vitamin and mineral deficiencies. Zinc supplementation reduces Candida infections  I know that zinc is an antiviral and have been using zinc glycomate (Cold Eeze lozanges) since 2004 and have not gotten cold or flu since.  The lozenge coats the mucous membrane with zinc, protecting the cell wall from the virus.  This research paper and some others indicate that zinc also acts as an antifungal.  Worth a try, Try to reduce how much food with high omega 6 that you eat to lower your omeaga 6 to 3 ratio.  It helps with inflammation.  Try eating foods with lots of benificial bacteria.  The goal is to repopulate your gut with good guys. Assuming you do not have dermatitis herpetiformis or another reason to limit iodine, Liquid Iodine to raise your iodine to the 600 mcg a day (middle of the RDA range (150-1000mcg)  to boost your immune system.  Iodine has anti-fungal properties that can help kill Candida species.  Your whole body will heal quicker when you have sufficient iodine and vitamin D.

      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:

      Oral thrush question

      By trents · Posted

      Welcome to the forum, @JulieRe! You would do well to get checked for a candida infection of the gut. Yeast thrives on carbs so you might also look into a low carb diet. These kinds of things seem to be more common in the celiac community than in the general population. There is a growing body of evidence that the development of celiac disease is rooted in unhealthy gut biome conditions. It's good that you are getting that red spot on your tongue checked out soon. It's likely related to the thrush but I would also not rule out a neoplasm which you would certainly want to catch early.

      Hi there! I have very similar dermatitis herpetiformis responses. The only thing that helps is dissolving a Benadryl pill and rubbing that on the painful itchy spots that arise on my knees, scalp, elbows. I have been working with a nutritionist who also has celiac we narrowed down to me only getting we certified gluten-free products - which I try the best I can. But then I have found products that use guar gum and other additive gums I have reactions as well. It was my plant based milk. I had to switch to Elmhurst it’s just nuts and milk- most of the time.   I hope that’s helpful! I’ll keep following:) we seem to have very similar reactions!
