Hi All:

this is my first post as a new member...I am traveling to LA for a week on business with my daughter (1st time) who has celiac disease...I am looking for a list of gluten-free restaurants in the beverly hills/west hollywood area...Any help would be greatly appreciated...

Thanks Tony

Check out Outback (steakhouse) and PF Chang's (Chinese) websites for gluten free choices.

I will be traveling to Rio, Buenos Aires, Santiago and Montivideo! Does any one know of any restuarants in those cities that know how to prepare safe, gluten free meals? I have contacted the celiac foundations in Brazil and Argentina but haven't heard back from them .

Thanks!

I had the misfortune of being served the wrong meal at my nephew's bar mitzvah even after going over my dietary restrictions with them! I fortunately ate only four bites before they realized their mistake, but I was ill for two days. When I asked my celiac group what I should do if confronted with a similiar situation, they suggested eating bananas because the potassium helps if you've accidentally ingested gluten. Our leader also recommended papaya seed tablets for the same reason.
