    most of the hotels in Abu Dhabi and Dubai have gluten free baked goods. Amazing buffets with large selection of gluten-free foods. I visited a number of hotel kitchens that had gluten-free sections. Some great operations and meals.

    Having lived in Barcelona and worked in Milan and Parma, Ive found the many of the good restaurants are using different type of original wheats like Einkorn and Ferro and different French wheats whos names I forget. Some new hybrid wheats can have 14 times the amount of gliaden protein than these non hybrid wheats. IN japan they even...

    i would tend to agree with your mom and that comes from more than 30 years in and out of Japan. the quality of the produce, meat and fish tends to be much better than the US becsaue it gets to market much faster and becasue there is a demand for quality above the demand for low price. As it was pointed out, this has nothing to do with gluten. ...

    A lot of teas in Japanese American restaurants are called green tea but in reality are other teas like gen mai cha or mugi cha. In both those cases the teas contain barley and can cause glutening -- at least in me. Real 100% green tea does not but often restaurants don't know the difference. Ask to see the box the bags came in if they are not sure or...

    I travel all the time too and after some time get used to knowing what not to do. Usually I try to go to places I know have something safe -- like Chinese and Thai places -- Just get steamed veggies and rice. I do carry a small spray bottle of Braggs aminos. Otherwise I get salad unless we stumble on a place that has a gluten-free Menu. Also I ask to...

    Try to get some Dal from an Indian market. Their lentils are grown in dedicated areas since its such a large crop for them Toor Dal is my favorite. If there is no store in your area, try online. Never had a problem with lentils form Indian markets.

    hi, never heard of s komatsu. Whats the location in Tokyo? If they have a gluten-free diet its becasue they cater to foreigners. The rate of celiac in Japan is opposite of Italy. ALmost know one knows of it. I never had any problem with any vinegars in Japan. they dont put soy sauce on the sushi but will put a sweet sauce on somethings ...

    There a few important things to learn -- komugi and allergy -- if you tell that to wait staff that will help. Also bring your own soy sauce with you and plan to eat much sushi as many other dishes use soy sauce and many other restaurants are hard unless you know Japanese. If your staying in western style hotels they wil be able to help you....

    I found Italy much easier. You can find many references and lists online in English form Italian Celiac Assoc. you can find gluten-free items in plethora of pharmacies and stories.
