    My husband loves Cheddar's so I have a found a few options I feel safe with for when we do go. Most often I get one of their steaks, or a burger (minus the bun) and then add a baked potato or a salad. Not the most exciting meal, but I've never been sick from it. I wish they had more offerings but unfortunately the managers aren't even that friendly and willing...

    Like the previous poster mentioned, Ted's has a gluten-free menu and will even make chips in a separate fryer. Also another great mexican restaurant with very knowledgable staff is Alfredo's. It's actually just north of Norman in Moore. There is also a new restaurant called Local that has a gluten-free menu. Since you will be on campus, there are a few...

    My husband and I went to the Excellence Resort in Playa Mujeres for our honeymoon two years ago. If the service and resort are anything like that one - and I'm sure they are - you will have a wonderful time! We can't wait to go back for another vacation. Like you, we checked about gluten free options before we booked our trip and they assured me there...

    Back from our trip and we all had a great time! We were able to try some great restaurants without any problems. I can

    Thank you all for your suggestions! My sister made the hotel reservations so I'm not sure where we are staying, but we will have a rental car so we can easily drive to restaurants that are not near our hotels. It's always good to know a Whole Foods location too. Thanks again! I'll report back once we return from our trip.

    My favorite gluten-free beer is New Planet - out of Colorado but they started carrying it in Oklahoma in the last few months. That is my first choice now for a beer, with Green's beers as a second choice. My local liquor store now has a shelf of a half-dozen different gluten-free beers now.

    My sister and I are taking our mom on a trip to Charleston and Savannah at the end of December in celebration of her retirement! While my mom doesn't have Celiac, my sister and I both do. Can anyone recommend some gluten free dining options in these cities for us? If at all possible we would like to eat at local restaurants instead of national chains. Neither...

    Schar brand crackers are my favorite. I like the snack crackers and the crisp bread both.

    I bought them while visiting my sister in Austin last week (purchased at the flagship Whole Foods) and I agree they do ROCK! I too was so excited I didn't notice the price on them. My first night back at home my hubby and I had chili cheese dogs. So good! I polished off the remaining two buns for dinner a couple of nights ago and I also took pictures to send...

    My husband and I went to BJ's last night and had two different pizzas. Both were great! Even my husband who can eat gluten thought they were really good. He actually had more to eat than me! So excited to have a place where I can have pizza and beer again. And even more excited to hear they are working on a pizookie.

    ARCHIVED Pappadeaux

    OkieGirl replied to texas's topic in Gluten-Free Restaurants

    I eat at Pappadeaux locations in Houston and Dallas/Ft. Worth on a regular basis. I admit the menu is pretty limited for those with gluten intolerance but they do have one sauce that is gluten free and I usually can pick my choice of fish to have it over. It is the beurre blanc sauce that is served with the Costa Rican Tilapia Lafayette. It is very good and...

    Chick-Fil-A is one of my go-to places for something quick. I have never had any trouble, though I explain every single time that I have an allergy and I am not just being picky when I request a Chargrilled chicken breast without the bun. I worked for Chick-Fil-A for three years in highschool/college and every one should have a dedicated fryer for the fries...

    I don't know if this is the most recent post on Las Vegas or not, but I just went last month and had a wonderful time and several wonderful meals! Several of the places we went for lunch and dinner were suggestions I found on here, so thank you! I go to Vegas every year but this was my first visit since my diagnosis in November and I was really worried about...

    I am newly diagnosed (Nov. 28) and new to the forum, but I just had a doctor's visit yesterday and this very subject came up. My doctor actually recommended not having a blood test done at 6 months. According to him, everyone's immune system is different and some people take longer to heal than others. So even if I am completely gluten free my levels could...
