Thanks Ken!

Hi, I'm travelling to Hawaii in a few weeks and was wondering if anyone has recommendations on restaurants, particularly those that offer gluten-free vegetarian options? We are going to Kona on the Big Island and then to Lahaina, Maui. We are staying in a condo in both locations and are hoping to eat in a few nights, so recommendations on grocery...

Hi, I may be writing too late for you, but thought I would post anyway. I currently live in Ireland, and have very rarely encountered a problem eating out, even in hotels. As the other posters mentioned, Ireland is one of the easiest places to travel gluten free. (Most of the problems I encounter eating out is finding gluten free food that is also vegetarian...

Hi, I've just returned from my trip and thought I would write a couple notes about eating gluten free in Hong Kong, the Philippines, and Japan, in case anyone finds themselves heading that way. Hong Kong Hong Kong was the easiest place to eat gluten free on the trip. Gluten free foods can be purchased at health food stores (though I brought enough...

Thanks to you both! I figured those would be answers I would come across! I lived in South Korea briefly several years ago (my unsuccessful travels), but was hoping there might have been some changes in the gluten free world since then (I know coeliac isn't well known in Asia, but I had my fingers crossed anyway!). In your experiences, have you ever...

Hi, I'm heading to Hong Kong, the Philippines (Manila, Bacolod,and Boracay), and Japan (Fukuoka) for about 3 weeks in April. I was wondering if anyone has traveled to one or all of these locations while gluten-free and could offer some advice/suggestions? I will be at a wedding in Bacolod (and theoretically the food is taken care of), and I am staying...

HI. I was in Chicago for a conference last year, and ate at the Weber Grill. It was pretty good. They have an online menu: Open Original Shared Link. Vegetarian options are marked on the menu--there seem to be more vegetarian options on the regular menu than the gluten-free menu (don't know if the vegetarian in your group also requires gluten-free). The restaurant...

Hi. I'm from Colorado, though I recently moved. I can't say I eat out much, but I like Udi's Bread Cafe, Abrusci's Italian, and Lala's Wine Bar (all are in Denver). I hear Panzano is pretty good as well. Root Down in the Highlands can do gluten-free, dairy-free for some of their menu items. Here's a list a local restaurants from GIG Colorado: Open Original...

Hello, I can recommend a cookbook and an online resource. Here they are: "Welcoming Kitchen" by Kim Lutz I haven't used this cookbook a ton, but I've liked the recipes that I've tried. The cookbook is vegan, and she doesn't use soy. It's a pretty small book, but the recipes are pretty easy. The Intolerant Gourmet (Open Original Shared Link) ...

Agreed! Pretty sure I'm not trying to be trendy, and I'm guessing no one else in this forum is either.

Thanks for posting your experience! I'm going to Ireland in a couple weeks, and I've been a little nervous (it's my first time travelling abroad since going gluten-free). Your suggestion about the tea is life-saving, and I can't wait to try that resaurant! Thanks again!

Hi, I'm from Denver, too, and I've been gluten free for two years. There is a meetup group for people with Celiac and gluten intolerance called the Gluten Intolerance Group of Greater Denver (Open Original Shared Link). I've found the group to be helpful since many of the members have been gluten free for several years. The group usually meets once...

Well, it looks like Qdoba uses whey in the adobo seasoning they put on the chicken (it's the only dairy on their chicken and adobo seasoning ingredient lists). Whey is found in a lot of products, but I don't know how common it is in meat seasonings. I guess it's just one more thing to look out for.

Hello, I'm not really sure how helpful my response will be, but I thought I should post anyway. From what you tell us about your breathing and sinus problems, it sounds like you're having a reaction to something. Whether or not it's gluten, it's hard to say (my issues with gluten are digestive). You might consider making an appointment with a general...

I'm guessing Landshark Lager has gluten in it since lagers usully contain water, hops, malt (from barley), and yeast. I think the only gluten-free product produced by Anheuser-Busch, which makes Landshark, is Redbridge. In any case, it you're interested in gluten-free beers, here's a list of products by country: Open Original Shared Link I'm not sure...
