    Hello, I live in Seabrook and am actually going to be in Exeter tonight, I'll probably end up calling but what type of gluten-free options do they have? Is it fairly basic or etc.? Just curious as that would be a great dining option tonight, thanks!

    The 99 gluten-free buns are amazing, sorry just had to chime in, I had one with my burger and I've tried alot of crap gluten-free bread products, this was like the real deal, didn't crumble, wasn't too big or small, just tasted like I was eating a regular burger with a bun at the 99. Just a FYI for anyone that didn't know about this, I was shocked when my...

    A article from last week in the Portsmouth Herald reports that they are closing shop. Appearantly the landlord has increased the rent by 25% and they cannot afford to stay in business at the moment with that type of rate increase, so sadly it looks like the last day that it will be open is December 24th. I am sure (or hoping at least) that at some point...

    Happy birthday and may God bless you today!

    I have never been to Mohegun, just Foxwoods, but I went in March (first time since I went gluten-free) and emailed/called ahead to get some ideas, it is limited though unless you want to take some risks, they were not very helpful in suggesting something. It was someone's 40th bday in the group so we wanted to eat somewhere nice anyways and I had spoken...

    I personally do not like Tinkyada, even when I rinse it I just have never been able to get use to the texture and taste, my preference is Bionaturae, they have Penne, Fusilli and Spaghetti and all are very good, but that's just me, they are especially good if you are making baked meals like Baked Penne or Baked Mac and Cheese (I use the Penne for the Baked...

    It could be something unrelated to your diet as well, I went 20 plus years sick and got diagnosed last April (2008) with Celiacs. After a year and a half gluten-free, and all my blood tests and a repeat endoscopy showing that I was definitely eating gluten-free and all that (no cc or anything showing, villi grown back) I was still sick, even getting worse...

    Well I went to the Pats game over the weekend (crazy snow storm hit right as the game started lol, but awesome pouncing on the Titans) and wanted to get some lunch before the game, so I did some research on a few places, Red Robin is in Patriots Place right there as is Olive Garden, and just on a whim I checked the web site for an Italian restaurant called...

    It is listed on their online menu nationwide now, but I also called ahead too to make sure for my local restaurant. We don't have Old Spaghetti Factory here, but when I was on a business trip in St. Louis last year, my hotel was like a minute away from one, so I ate dinner there both nights lol, I love the marinara/butter sauce they put on it, really good...

    Juliano's has some desserts from Heavenly Fodder, I have heard of it and would like to get some of their take out but Manchster is a bit of a hike. I would love to try Giorgio's in Milford, I'm in Seabrook, so a bit of a hike. Annellos in Portsmouth is a great sandwhich/pizza/bakery PURE gluten free shop, theres Popover on the Square which can do gluten...

    Like I said, we had called ahead, and I can imagine the cc concerns at a place like this, but in my opinion, you are pretty much always going to be risking cc, at any restaraunt, whether it is the buns/breads/pasta/seasonings/marinades/flour from pizza etc. so I have come to accept it and just make sure I call ahead and give em the ole Celiac quiz to get...

    Well I do my random checking of gluten free menus online here and there and I'm on vacation this week and we were looking for somewhere to go for lunch, and I happened to on a whim check Olive Garden and bam now on their gluten-free menu they have: Pennine Rigate with Marinara Marinara sauce made with a blend of tomatoes, bell peppers, onions and Italian...

    So I finally got to check this place out today, and let me tell you it is awesome. I had the cheese lasagna and it was pure heaven, they have chicken parm and chicken pesto as their gluten-free pasta specials this week also, didn't try those, and you can always get penne and marinara. The owner is the gluten-free cook/specialist and she makes everything...

    Found a new pizza place in NH called Weeksies Pizza up in Dover (downtown at the train station) and they have gluten-free pizza! Went there Friday night (the wife was kind enough to go there for her bday so I could enjoy some good food) and they have TONS of cool creations that they can do gluten-free. I had a lasagna pizza with burger and sausage on...

    I saw that Michae's Harborside had gluten-free menu options and we called once to see what it was all about, but the options seemed very boring, so we never ventured out there. The place right across the bridge, Stripers, was able to accomodate me a week or two ago with a really good filet mignon. They also told us on the phone they had a dedicated friolator...

    I will have to make a trip then! Thanks for the info, always looking for new places to try so good to hear where people are having good experiences around here.
  17. Lombardi25
    Hi Mtn, Are you referring to the one at the mall in Peabody? If so, are you referring to the bread crumbs or do they actually have real gluten free bread for before your meal etc.? I wish they would do gluten-free fries, they have the dedicated friolator so you wouldn't think it'd be an issue, but I guess whoever they get the fries for must not be...

    This is by far my favorite of all the gluten-free pastas I have tried, I regularly have at least a couple bags of the penne and spaghetti in my house. It works great whether you want to make a baked pasta, regular red sauce, or maybe even some butter/cheese type deal. I have just recently been eating the spaghetti more, and I actually am starting to like...

    I have been looking for these for the last month not knowing when/where I would find them and suddenly, today, out of the blue, I found them in the Market Basket in Seabrook, NH, so it looks like they finally made their way north. I have been looking in all the health food stores and grocery stores from Ipswich, MA to Dover, NH for these, so if you live...

    Lombardi25 replied to Lisa's topic in Gluten-Free Restaurants

    I believe that Texas Roadhouse pulled there's in the last year (don't quote me on that). I find some restaurants (like many probably do) to go above and beyond and others to be totally lazy and inept about it. For example, 99 has gluten-free menus now online and in the restaurant, and one of the items on the gluten-free is FF's. Sometimes I go or call...

    I've posted about my local Wendy's before on here and I have never had anything but praise for the one here in Seabrook, NH, my wife gets it for dinner on her way home for us maybe once a week or every other week and they always know what to do (making sure their gloves are changed, careful not to cross contaminate etc.) I usually get a burger and they throw...

    I wasn't aware of this controversy, but I found both these items by surprise about four weeks ago in the freezer section at our local Whole Foods and bought them, I've ate the pancakes several times (although I've made pancakes from scratch too which have actually come out great, of all the things I make it's wierd cause I cannot ever tellt he difference...

    Hi all, Just wanted to share my experience with my trip last month to Foxwoods in CT. I actually had called ahead and set up having a fridge in my room for late night drunk snacks and breakfast if needed (aka having milk for cereal) and also spoke with someone at Craftsteak about eating there which they made note of on our reservation(I mentioned this...

    Sorry to hear your first experience was crummy MsMac, but thank you so much for posting about this place. I live in Seabrook, NH and work in Ipswich, MA, but I had no clue about this local chain and that they had gluten-free stuff. Now I'm interested in making a trip after work and meeting the wife over in the Burlington area some time and checking it out...

    I finally made it to Anello's today, and wow, (sorry but long novelized review and other rambling upcoming.) Also if you live in Southern ME, coastal NH or North Shore MA, read my other posts which have a wealth of information and reviews on area gluten-free stuff! And feel free to contact me if you have any questions and are in the area I'm always glad...
