    I contacted Chipotle after I saw the post about the upcoming new dessert. This is Chipotle's reply: Susan, Thanks for reaching out to us about this very important issue. We are very, very aware of the gluten issue and what is happening right now is a test in one restaurant in which the wheat tortilla chips are being cooked in a fryer outside of the...

    The manager said they take extreme caution re cross-contact issues and change their gloves constantly. Sue

    I just posted this under Restaurants, but thought I should also post it under Travel because people do travel to Silicon Valley and would like to know where they could eat while here. Congratulations to Country Gourmet Restaurant in Sunnyvale, California, for successfully launching their new gluten-free menu. This new Gluten-free menu is now available...

    My daughter and I split a pepperoni, sausage and mushroom Gluten-free pizza at Ristorante Mataro in Menlo Park, CA yesterday. It was absolutely delicious. A simple, yet crunchy, thin, satisfying crust. We talked with the new owner, Ibrahim, and this is what we found out. He was trained in making and serving gluten-free food while he was working at...

    We ate at Tony & Alba's at 3137 Stevens Creek Boulevard in San Jose, California and were excited to see a variety of Gluten-free options, including pizza, pasta, polenta and beer. Their phone number is (408) 246-4605. The owners (Al and Dionna) are very knowledgeable about celiac disease and cross-contact issues. They make their Gluten-free pizza...

    I have great news! Asqew Grill finally has their gluten-free menu up on their website! One of their owners, Mark, has a celiac daughter. Just go to their website and click menu, and then you have an option on the right to click gluten free! The Gluten-free appetizers include butternut squash soup, polenta, hummus and grilled vegetables. Their main menu...

    ARCHIVED Taco Bell

    CalicoSue replied to LauraBeth's topic in Gluten-Free Restaurants

    I called the Taco Bell customer service line yesterday and the rep told me that none of the Cantina Tacos are gluten-free because none of their meats are gluten free to begin with. Since the soft corn tacos are Gluten-free, maybe we can order them with their beans and cheese instead. There's the cross-contact issues to consider, too. I'm just confused...

    I thought I was pass this info along in case you live near Gilroy or Hollister in California (or if you travel to the Gilroy Outlets) and want to try out a BBQ restaurant in Hollister which features a Gluten-free BBQ menu. Hollister is about 15 miles south of Gilroy. I emailed Maverick BBQ in Hollister, CA to see if they had a gluten-free menu, and...

    What a great surprise to see the words GLUTEN FREE on Nature Valley

    I am excited to announce that Asqew Grill now has an official Gluten-free menu. Asqew Grill is in three locations in San Francisco, one in Mill Valley and one in Emeryville - all in Northern California. The Gluten-free menu will be on their website soon and Gluten-free menus are now in their restaurants. I have cut and pasted their Gluten-free menu...

    BJ's new gluten-free menu is unbelievable! Once I got "pizza'd" out on their delicious new Gluten-free pizza, I turned my attention to the other menu items they have on their Gluten-free menu! My husband and I ate there on Sat. night, and I had their balsamic glazed chicken entree. Two grilled chicken breasts sitting on a bed of lettuce leaves with balsamic...

    After reviewing Applebee's allergen menu again, it does not say gluten free - just wheat free. And, keep in mind, their disclaimer really states the cross-contact issues! Sue
  16. CalicoSue
    I just found out that Applebee's now has a gluten-free menu (along with other allergen menus). I remember years ago I basically was told there was nothing on the menu I could eat and they didn't want me to serve me! Times sure do change! The Gluten-free menu can be found on Applebee's website under the link for allergen information (similar to "Chili...

    I stopped by Mimi's Cafe in San Jose, California yesterday and picked up their recent Gluten-free menu. They have taken great lengths to be as explicit as they can explaining cross-contact issues, how to order, etc. Mimi's Cafe restaurants are located throughout the U.S. Some of their menu items look very good. Their desserts look especially good- Mimi's...

    BJ's Restaurant and Brewhouse just launched a brand new gluten-free menu, including PIZZA and BEER! We ate there yesterday, and the pizza was absolutely delicious! Their chefs actually created the Gluten-free pizza crust recipe, and they are now working on a Gluten-free recipe for a cookie to use in their famous Pizookie desserts (warm cookie with ice cream...

    When my daughter and I visited Boston about 18 months ago, we went to the Four Seasons Hotel restaurant and were able to order gluten-free pancakes, fruit and bacon. The price was not that bad, either, considering it was the Four Seasons Hotel! Try calling and talking to the manager of the restaurant. He was wonderful and appreciated the advance notice...

    Warning - In Tokyo's Outback Restaurant, the BBQ sauce is NOT gluten-free. It has wheat flour in it. The manager of Tokyo's Outback Restaurant looked up the ingredients for me while we dined at his restaurant and found that their restaurant still uses the OLD Outback BBQ sauce recipe, which has wheat flour in it. He was such a sweet man - he even cooked...

    I wanted to thank all of you who responded to my inquiry about Korea and Japan. It was fun looking up some of the names of the different foods you suggested to see what they were! It will be challenging to eat there because of the soy sauce, and I absolutely cannot eat fish or seafood. My plan is to eat mostly the food I am bringing with me, and my...

    I inadvertently posted this same message in the Travel section of the forum, and I meant to post it in the International Room. I apologize ahead of time for duplicating this message. My son is getting married in Daegu, Korea in April. We will then be traveling to Tokyo for a few days before heading back to the U.S. I have already searched the archives...

    My son is getting married in Daegu, Korea in April. We will then be traveling to Tokyo for a few days before heading back to the U.S. I have already searched the archives for any useful information on what and how my daughter and I can eat while we are in Korea and Japan. I am hoping there is a little more current information someone could pass on...

    I couldn't believe it myself, so even after reviewing the ingredients on-line on the Boston Market website, I called Boston Market (twice!) and talked with their representatives. They make their own chicken stock (does not come out of a can). The poultry gravy is indeed Gluten-free. See the ingredients below: Poultry Gravy (4oz): WATER, POULTRY GRAVY...
