Twelve Top Phở Restaurants in the Los Angeles Area
Jefferson Adams posted an article in Gluten-Free Travel
Celiac.com 01/25/2022 - Phở (pronounced 'FUH') is a delicious soup made from beef, oxtail or chicken broth base. It's the national dish of Vietnam, and in most instances, phở happens to be gluten-free by default. Phở is almost always served with a variety of condiments, including bean sprouts, cilantro, Thai basil, mint sprigs, scallions, and saw-tooth leaves, bird's eye chilis, sliced jalapeño peppers, hoisin sauce (make sure it's gluten-free), Sriracha (Rooster) Sauce, and lime wedges. Definitely avoid egg noodles in your phở. So, the takeaway is that Phở is typically gluten-free and safe for people with celiac disease. Just be careful about what gets added. As always, avoid any ingredients you're not sure about, and talk to the restaurant workers about the need for your dish to be gluten-free. Our article on top Pho restaurants in San Francisco and the Bay Area led to questions about pho restaurants in a number of other cities. With that in mind, here's a list of some solid pho restaurants in the Los Angeles region. Without doubt, if you're looking for pho in the Los Angeles area, and you have a few extra minutes, head to Orange County, especially Little Vietnam in Garden Grove. There you'll find a number of great choices in a small area. Please note that our list is barely a starter. It is very much incomplete and meant as a basic reference. There are so many solid pho restaurants in the region that it's hard to count them all, let alone list them here. If we missed a favorite pho spot of yours, or if you know of a good one, please share it in the comments below.

UCLA Celiac Center
TexasJen posted a topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease
Hi all- just an update - I went to the UCLA Celiac center last week to see their dietitian, Nancee Jaffe. Some background - I live in Texas and was diagnosed in 2016. I have seen 2 dietitians here who really didn't know that much about celiac. They have not been particularly helpful in providing evidenced based recommendations for the practicalities of a gluten free diet. Since I was going to be in the area, I decided to make the appointment. (I find this sight helpful but in general, I am frustrated by conflicting advice, information that I find on the internet) I have to say, IT WAS GREAT! She has celiac herself for 10 years. She is down to earth, practical, and talks to the specialists at UCLA regularly to come up with a treatment plan for their patients. The advice she gave was solid advice. She provided evidence for a lot of her advice and she had reasonable well-thought out answers to some of the tough questions (how to eat out safely, how to travel, what to do about oats in food, etc) I would definitely recommend her to anyone who has ongoing questions about a gluten free life-style, refractory celiac, new diagnosis.- 4 replies
