Your Home For Restaurant & Product Reviews Free From Gluten & Dairy
When people ask me for recommendations for gluten-free friendly eateries in Washington, DC my advice is simple: you can’t go wrong with a José Andrés restaurant! As a city, we are lucky to be home to several of his inspired culinary concepts, including China Chilcano, Jaleo, Beefsteak, and Oyamel (can you tell I’m a fan?!), which present globally-inspired flavors in a fun and whimsical way. His latest concept- Butterfly- is taking a […]
When it comes to gluten-free baking, I rely on boxed mixes to do the heavy lifting for me. Playing the game of having to mix seven different types of flours that many from-scratch recipes call for just isn’t my cup of tea. With box mixes all I have to worry about is milk, eggs, oil, and maybe one or two other mix-ins. However there are times when even box mixes […]
Whenever I travel I usually have luck finding gluten-free options for lunch and dinner but breakfast is more hit-and-miss. Hotel breakfast bars can be limited on options and many gluten-free friendly restaurants are simply not open for the first meal of the day. In these instances, I typically I turn to fruit and a protein bar for substance while on the go. However, while on a work trip to New […]
When booking a matinee and evening Broadway show on the same day, I knew I needed to find someplace close to grab gluten-free fare in between shows. After considering all the nearby options using Find Me Gluten-Free’s location feature, I decided to go to Schnipper’s at 41st Street and 8th Avenue- just a few blocks from the heart of Times Square. I chose Schnipper’s not only because they received glowing reviews […]
Knowing that my weekend trip to New York was going to be short and sweet, I made sure to squeeze as much sightseeing as I could into my visit- food-centered and otherwise. Knowing that I had tickets for a matinee and evening Broadway show on Saturday, I decided to spend my morning near Times Square exploring the magnificent New York Public Library in Bryant Park. For my lunch destination between the library […]
When it comes to travel, I am not a huge sightseer. I don’t pack my days with tours and places to be but instead focus on a few places of interest and see where the journey takes me. After arriving by train to New York City in the early afternoon, I decidedly made a bee line towards Hu Kitchen, which on this trip was definitely a destination that was topping my list […]
The second I booked my weekend trip to New York City, I immediately began craving Inday. The 100% gluten-free Indian restaurant impressed me on previous visits, and was a reliable place to grab healthy, real food (check out my review). I was all set on going back to Inday’s Nomad location for another visit when I saw on Instagram they had recently opened up a pop up at Urbanspace 570 […]
Ever walk by a restaurant that looks interesting but dismiss it out of hand because you assume they don’t have gluten-free options? I did. Working in the Penn Quarter neighborhood, the brightly colored storefront of Merzi Fresh Indian Kitchen caught my eye every time I came and went from work. With no menu markings, I assumed (incorrectly as I discovered) that nothing was safe. However, when looking for a place […]
Since graduating college last December, I have moved into a new apartment, started a new job, and adjusted to a new pace in my life. The greatest thing about my post-grad life? I finally have a kitchen I can call my own, and time to play around in the kitchen with new recipes. Good-bye forever dorm kitchen!! As much as I have enjoyed cooking up curries, soups, and other meals, it […]
Cooper’s Hawk Restaurant is a chain that I have heard quite a buzz about in the gluten-free world. I’ve read other bloggers’ glowing reviews and have seen positive reports on Find Me Gluten Free, a website and app I use religiously. That being said, I approached this dining experience at Cooper’s Hawk with dread, because I have eaten there once before (years ago) and it was one of the worst dining experiences […]
