If you live in the Seattle area I was wondering where you liked to eat out. What do you eat when you go there?

I was up there last weekend, and will live there soon, but while there, we went to PF Changs, Z'Tejas, and got some stuff from the Flying Apron Bakery. All are quite celiac friendly. There's also Kalli's Kitchen, but I didn't get a chance to stop there.

I've gotten things from The Flying Apron Bakery, but I have never heard of PF Changs or Z'Tejas. I will be sure to eat at them! :) Thanks for telling me!

Kaili's Kitchen

In Firdale Village

9711 Firdale Ave.

Edmonds WA 98020

206-542-1462

1-877-664-5883

Kaili's Kitchen has moved (as of Oct. 1st, 2003) and is now open for lunch and dinner. Everything in her kitchen is gluten-free and everything tastes great! For a real worry-free, gluten-free dining out experience, visit Kaili's Kitchen and give your taste buds a treat.

This place is great!!! I was in Washington for a few days and dragged my husband, sister, bro-in-law, niece & nephew, to Kaili's for a meal. It was well worth the drive as EVERYTHING on the menu is gluten-free!!! Including the delicious desserts!!!!!!

Both Kaili and her daughter are Celiacs, so they are well versed in what we can and cannot eat!!!

If you can't get to Kaili's contact her for a list of the foods she will overnight to you!!!

HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!!!

Another chain restaurant you might try is Thaifoon. I know they're in Salt Lake City and Las Vegas and a few other cities. I haven't seen any in the East.

They have great food and a gluten-free menu!!!

Or she'll decide not to do that because of the cost of gas to drive across town and snail-mail you a late gift certificate instead without telling you.

I kid you not, my MIL ordered a gift certificate and two cinnamon rolls for our anniversary for us, at the beginning of the week. By the end of the week (our anniversary), we'd heard nothing, so while we were travelling (in Seattle) ironically, my MIL finally talked to her, was told she'd decided not to send the cinnamon rolls, and would snail mail a gift certificate - which obviously didn't get to us before we went to Seattle where we could have used it. She made this decision on her own, without confirming it with my MIL, and my MIL had to call *numerous* times to get an answer. I was appalled by that service. I may stop in once we live there, but... that's unexcusable.

I went to Black Angus one time and while they had never heard of celiac disease, they were very accomodating. I had to explain cross contamination and issues with seasonings. The manager looked out for me and let me bring in my own bbq sauce. I've also heard that Claim Jumper is very accomodating.

Tiffany - that would make me mad too!

I don't know how relevant what I am about to right is to the topic, but...

Claim Jumper is very accomodating. I went there a couple days ago and I asked the waitress if they had a gluten-free menu. They do, but its on their website. I looked at it before and remembered what I could have on it, and the waitress was really nice about it and made sure that it was gluten-free! That put me in a good mood! :P

School has started for me and when gluten slips into my diet I get reactions so strong I have to stay home from school.I was sick today and I hated it! :angry: I had eated at a mexian resturaunt the night before and had had a taco. The shell looked to be corn but it must of had gluten in it because I was sick the next day!.

I reccomend eating at Japanese resturaunts. There is a thing called sushi on a converbelt where there is a big converbelt with sushi on it and you talke the rolls you want off it.I tried it and its really fun! :D

grantschoep Contributor

One thing you do want to be careful of, is do they make their corn shells themselves. Lots of nice mexican places make their own shells, and then deep fry them to make them crunchy

      It seems like you have two choices--do a proper gluten challenge and get re-tested, or just go gluten-free because you already know that it is gluten that is causing your symptoms. In order to screen someone for celiac disease they need to be eating gluten daily, a lot of it--they usually recommend at least 2 slices of wheat bread daily for 6-8 weeks before a blood screening, and at least 2 weeks before an endoscopy (a colonoscopy is no used to diagnose celiac disease). Normally the blood panel is your first step, and if you have ANY positive results there for celiac disease the next step would be to take biopsies of your villi via an endoscopy given by a gastroenterologist.  More info on the blood tests and the gluten challenge beforehand is below: The article includes the "Mayo Clinic Protocol," which is the best overall protocol for results to be ~98% accurate. Here is more info about how to do a gluten challenge for a celiac disease blood panel, or for an endoscopy: and this recent study recommends 4-6 slices of wheat bread per day:   Not to discourage you from a formal diagnosis, but once you are diagnosed it may lead to higher life and medical insurance rates (things will be changing quickly in the USA with the ACA starting in 2026), as well as the need to disclose it on job applications. While I do think it's best to know for sure--especially because all of your first degree relatives should also get screened for it--I also want to disclose some negative possibilities around a formal diagnosis that you may want to also consider.

      Yes.  Now, if you hit your finger with a hammer once, wouldn't you do your best not to do it again?  You have identified a direct connection between gluten and pain.  Gluten is your hammer.  Now you have to decide if you need a medical diagnosis.  Some countries have aid benefits tgat you can get if you have the diagnosis, but you must continue eating a gluten-normal diet while pursuing the diagnosis. Otherwise the only reason to continue eating gluten is social. There are over 200 symptoms that could be a result of celiac disease.. Celiac Disease and Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity  both cause multiple vitamin and mineral deficiency.  Dealing with that should help your recovery, even while eating gluten.  Phosphatidyl Choline supplements can help your gut if digesting fats is a problem,  Consider that any medications you take could be causing some of the symptoms, aside from gluten.

      Welcome to the forum, @Ben98! If you have been consciously or unconsciously avoiding gluten because of the discomfort it produces then it is likely that your blood antibody testing for celiac disease has been rendered invalid. Valid testing requires regular consumption of generous amounts of gluten. The other strong possibility is that you have NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity) which shares many of the same symptoms with celiac disease but does not have the autoimmune component and thus does not damage the small bowel lining. It is 10x mor common than celiac disease. There is currently no test for NCGS. Celiac disease must first be ruled out. Some experts in the field believe it can be a precursor to the development of celiac disease. Having one or both of the primary genes for developing celiac disease does not imply that you will develop active celiac disease. It simply establishes the potential for it. About 40% of the population has the genetic potential but only about 1% develop active celiac disease.

      TTG blood test and total IGA tested on many occasions which have always remained normal, upper GI pain under my ribs since 2022. I had an endoscopy in 2023 which showed moderate gastritis. no biopsy’s were taken unfortunately. genetic test was positive for HLADQ2. extreme bloating after eating gluten, it’ll feel like I’ve got bricks in my stomach so uncomfortably full. the pain is like a dull ache under the upper left almost like a stitch feeling after a long walk. I am just wanting some advice has anyone here experienced gastritis with a gluten issue before? thank you

      "Conclusions: The urinary iodine level was significantly lower in women with postmenopausal osteoporosis, and iodine replacement may be important in preventing osteoporosis"  Body iodine status in women with postmenopausal osteoporosis Low iodine can cause thyroid problems, but Iodine deficiency will not show up in thyroid tests.  Iodine is important for healing, its job is to kill off defective and aging cells (Apoptosis). Skin, brain fog, nails, muscle tone all inproved when I started taking 600 mcg (RDA 150 - 1000 mcg) of Liquid Iodine drops. Some with dermatitis herpetiformis, Iodine exacerbates the rash.  I started at 1 drop (50 mcg) and worked up to 12 drops, but I don't have dermatitis herpetiformis.
