Elevation Burger - Montclair, Nj - gluten-free Heaven!

I went to Elevation Burger in Montclair, NJ for lunch and when I left, I was already thinking about going back tomorrow. The Manager, Meghan is fully gluten-free aware. As soon as I told her I had a gluten allergy, she informed me that their fries are 100% gluten-free. They are all cooked in dedicated friers in 100% Olive Oil. In fact, they have no other items on their menu that are fried. Nothing touches these fryers except for freshly cut fries. In fact, I was watching one of the other folks putting potatoes through the cutter and right into a fry basket and then into the fryer. This was the first time I felt like I had 100% visibility into watching my meal from start to finish. Needless to say the fries are unbelievable and since I so rarely get to have them at a restaurant without being worried about cross-contamination, this was the first time that I had fries in a year. Meghan informed me that they could do a burger for me wrapped in lettuce. It was awesome!!! The burger was so good, that I don

Thank you so much for the recommendation! My husband and I went there for lunch today since we had to be in Nutley.

I had a cheeseburger (plain) and fries. Both were delicious--and it was the first time I've had restaurant fries in over 5 years! :D :D The staff that was there today were very accommodating and came to our table twice to ask if everything was ok. The girl at the grill made my burger using a clean spatula and delivered it herself.

Needless to say, we will be going back :D

      @Healthforme, No prescription needed for thiamine hydrochloride, Benfotiamine, and TTFD (Tetrahydrofurfuryl Disulfide).  They are available over the counter.   Thiamine Mononitrate is not recommended because the body doesn't absorb or utilize it well.

      HLA-DQ2 is NOT a continuum 2.01 to 2.99, but I don’t understand HLA genetics well enough to explain it further.  It is not just one gene that is either this or that.
    • trents
      Okay, I'm taking a guess here. We are used to hearing in layman terms that having either the HLA-DQ2 or the HLA-DQ8 gene, either heterozygous or homozygous, presents the possibility of developing active celiac disease. So, I'm guessing that the HLA-DQ2 gene is actually a range of variants (2.01-2.99) with HLA-DQ 2.5 being in the centerpiece of the range. I'm also guessing that "permissive" is equivalent to "possessing the possibility" to develop active celiac disease and does not address the issue of hetero vs. homozygus per se. But the fact that 2.01,2.01 is a couplet may indicated homozygousity? All wild guesses.

      I received the results that my child has the genes for celiac disease (she is still undergoing testing and it has been complicated). Can someone explain if this is homozygous HLA DQ 2.5 or not? The interpretation just says permissive for celiac disease. Thank you! DQ Alpha 1  05:01, 5 DQ Beta 1 02:01, 02:01 DQ serologic equivalent 2,2
