Shout - My New Favorite Restaurant In Atlanta, Ga

I am sooo excited!!!!

Just by chance my husband and I met some friends at one of Atlanta's "HOT" singles restaurants "Shout".

I was so worried if there was going to be anything I could eat, but everyone else in our group was already there having a drink and I'd feel like a smuck if I said "I think I'll go home" :unsure: . So, I did my usual sneak to talk to the manager dreading that he would say there was nothing except the "plain salad"... but to my surprise, he knew all about "Gluten" and So did the majority of the staff!!! This was like a dream come true :D . It was so wonderful, The manager went and spoke to the chef to verify that the items I was interested in were gluten free and told me to just tell my waitor that I have a gluten allergy and everything will be taken care of. To my surprise, they said the majority of the items either were gluten free or could be prepared gluten free on request.... All you have to do is ask your waitor or waitress. Well, After some debate over my multiple choices I ordered the Tea Smoked Samon wrapped in potatoe with curry sauce (yes the sauce is gluten-free).... It was completely gluten free, the waitor said (without me asking) "Miss, I will ensure that the chef prepares your meal on a clean gluten free pan".

If you are in Atlanta this is a MUST. It is located in "Colony Square" sort of catty cornered across the street from the Woodruff Arts Center & The High.

I am sooo glad we found this place B) . Depending on what you order it can be a little pricey and the meals are portions for one. Even though it is geared towards singles it is still a great spot for couples and business partys. It is seperated into four seperate areas a Japanese SteakHouse Ichi-Ban style, Bar, Outdoor patio and upstairs terrace (suposively this is where the celeb's go), But they have Sushi, Steak, Chicken and Pizza (not gluten free of course :( ).

So go see a play, watch the symphony, tour the high and end it all with a great dinner in an absolutely wonderful restaurant.... The atmosphere was so fun!

I'm not sure, but they seem to be very accomidating to requests.

It really would depend on what kind of vegitarian you are and how strict... My cousin was a vegitarian for years (until she joined the air force), she omitted everthing except fish. In her case I would say they definately would be able to meet the requirements.

Give them a call.... they were soooooo friendly - I'm sure they would answer that for you.

Can you contact local Celiac/ DH support groups in the area to add to the list of gluten free capable restaurants?

Does anyone know of another one for the Atlanta Area (Georgia)?

      Draft gluten-free ciders… can they be trusted ?

      By Rejoicephd · Posted

      That and my nutritionist also said that drinking cider is one of the worst drink choices for me, given that I have candida overgrowth.  She said the combination of the alcohol and sugar would be very likely to worsen my candida problem.  She suggested that if I drink, I go for clear vodka, either neat or with a splash of cranberry.   So in summary, I am giving ciders a rest.  Whether it's a gluten risk or sugars and yeast overgrowth, its just not worth it.

      Tea Bags and Gluten

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      While plain, pure tea leaves (black, green, or white) are naturally gluten-free, the issue often lies not with the tea itself but with other ingredients or processing. Many flavored teas use barley malt or other gluten-containing grains as a flavoring agent, which would be clearly listed on the ingredient label. Cross-contamination is another possibility, either in the facility where the tea is processed or, surprisingly, from the tea bag material itself—some tea bags are sealed with a wheat-based glue. Furthermore, it's important to consider that your reaction could be to other substances in tea, such as high levels of tannins, which can be hard on the stomach, or to natural histamines or other compounds that can cause a non-celiac immune response. The best way to investigate is to carefully read labels for hidden ingredients, try switching to a certified gluten-free tea brand that uses whole leaf or pyramid-style bags, and see if the reaction persists.

      Inconclusive results

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      This is a challenging and confusing situation. The combination of a positive EMA—which is a highly specific marker rarely yielding false positives—alongside strongly elevated TTG on two separate occasions, years apart, is profoundly suggestive of celiac disease, even in the absence of biopsy damage. This pattern strongly aligns with what is known as "potential celiac disease," where the immune system is clearly activated, but intestinal damage has not yet become visible under the microscope. Your concern about the long-term risk of continued gluten consumption is valid, especially given your family's experience with the consequences of delayed diagnosis. Since your daughter is now at an age where her buy-in is essential for a gluten-free lifestyle, obtaining a definitive answer is crucial for her long-term adherence and health. Given that she is asymptomatic yet serologically positive, a third biopsy now, after a proper 12-week challenge, offers the best chance to capture any microscopic damage that may have developed, providing the concrete evidence needed to justify the dietary change. This isn't about wanting her to have celiac; it's about wanting to prevent the insidious damage that can occur while waiting for symptoms to appear, and ultimately giving her the unambiguous "why" she needs to accept and commit to the necessary treatment. This article might be helpful. It breaks down each type of test, and what a positive results means in terms of the probability that you might have celiac disease. One test that always needs to be done is the IgA Levels/Deficiency Test (often called "Total IGA") because some people are naturally IGA deficient, and if this is the case, then certain blood tests for celiac disease might be false-negative, and other types of tests need to be done to make an accurate diagnosis. The article includes the "Mayo Clinic Protocol," which is the best overall protocol for results to be ~98% accurate.

      Medication

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Welcome to the community! Generally, for a gluten challenge before celiac disease blood tests, Tylenol (acetaminophen) is considered safe and should not interfere with your antibody results. The medications you typically need to avoid are those like ibuprofen (Advil, Motrin) or naproxen (Aleve) that can cause intestinal irritation, which could potentially complicate the interpretation of an endoscopy if you were to have one. However, it is absolutely crucial that you confirm this with either your gastroenterologist or your surgeon before your procedure. They know the specifics of your case and can give you the definitive green light, ensuring your surgery is comfortable and your celiac testing remains accurate. Best of luck with your surgery tomorrow
