Although I did not plan my trip to Cincinnati around the Gluten-Free for Cincinnati expo, it certainly was incredible timing for it to take place during my birthday week while I happened to be in the city. Organized by a local non-profit founded by a Cincinnati family whose young kids were diagnosed with celiac disease, this expo promised to bring together local and national vendors for a day of education, awareness, and gluten-free […]
Although my stay would be short in Cincinnati, I knew I could not leave town without heading north of the city to the Dayton area, where I spent several years of my childhood. After spending the morning in and around Centerville, I looked to Find Me Gluten Free for a place to stop for a quick lunch before heading back to Cincinnati. All reviews pointed to Arepas & Co in […]
After a week of foodie adventures and fun in North Carolina for the first part of my spring break, I now begin the second leg of my journey- Ohio. Flying from Charlotte to Cincinnati to visit my grandparents, I couldn’t wait to get my second chance to explore around the city and see what delicious eats I could find (see past reviews from Cincinnati here). Arriving mid-day, I searched for […]
After several amazing foodie finds in Charlotte and Asheville, I couldn’t wait to see what delicious eats awaited me in Boone, the down-to-Earth college town nestled in the Blue Ridge Mountains where I spent the summer several years ago. When I knew I would be heading back to the town for a day trip, I was excited to get back on the campus of Appalachian State University and explore around the […]
When I knew I would be spending my birthday and part of my spring break in North Carolina, the search began for a gluten-free and allergen-friendly bakery. Realizing that I could not remember the last time I had a birthday cake, my aunt and I went to work to vet Charlotte area bakeries to see which we felt most comfortable with. After all, getting a gluten and dairy-free cake is […]
Although my childhood was spent in the Midwest, I really grew up when my family moved to Florida late in my elementary school career. Despite moving to the part of the country where sweet tea is as readily available as water and it’s normal to pair fried chicken with waffles, I must admit I was never, and am still not really, a fan of Southern cuisine. Cornbread I am a-okay with […]
After passing through Charlotte, North Carolina several times in the past year (see reviews here), I have grown to love discovering new places to eat in this Southern city. When I began to make plans for my week-long spring break, I knew I would be passing through the city once again on my way to my aunt and uncle’s house in Hickory, North Carolina. Because I would be flying in late in […]
As a gluten-free blogger, I’ve learned to never miss the opportunity to taste food when it’s concentrated in one area. As I explored around Union Market in DC, I knew that I had limited time but didn’t want to leave without trying DC Dosa and Arepa Zone, the two most gluten-free friendly vendors I found. After eating the larger-than-expected dosa from the first stand, I decided to still order from […]
I absolutely adore non-Americanized ethnic food. With so many other cultures’ cuisines designed around wheat-free ingredients, ethnic foods are often a wonderful relief from the American staples of wheat, dairy, and all things processed. Although I have already posted an overview of Union Market and all of the gluten-free finds to be had there, I wanted to throw the spotlight on DC Dosa, one of the restaurants I visited while exploring the market. […]
For a college student who doesn’t do coffee, gluten, or dairy, I seem to find myself at Starbucks frequently to work on group projects and meet up with friends. Although they have a few safe options (bottled water and herbal tea), I often find myself pining for one of their signature blended beverages, all of which are either unsafe for me or severely prone to cross-contamination. Luckily, the nut milk masterminds at […]
