To read my Expo East overview and enter to win a swag bag fresh from the show floor, click here. This is the last in the trio of Expo East lists of my favorite products by category. From a show filled with hundreds to thousands of brands, it wasn’t easy to narrow down my favorites. This list covers the snacks, breads, and baking products that caught my eye. This category might […]
I’ll start right off the bat and say this review is almost two years overdue. How could I not have visited Washington D.C.’s only dedicated gluten-free bakery before now? Quite honestly I’m still asking myself this question. Rise Bakery opened in November 2014 and has quickly made their name as the go-to gluten-free bakery in the region. While 100% free from gluten, this bakery stocks the delicacies not often seen even […]
As a gluten-free blogger, I am always seeking delicious fare that’s safe, which has brought me from time to time to some pretty funkiest food joints that are as much about good food as they are about establishing a unique vibe and character. Of all the restaurants with character I’ve eaten at, most pale in comparison to Washington D.C.’s Busboys and Poets, an innovative, vibrant multi-location combination bookstore and restaurant that is […]
Since I live only an hour’s train ride away from Washington D.C., I have made it a goal to increase my trips to the District. There’s so much to explore in this quirky city, and the density of gluten-free friendly eateries is fairly unmatched to any other city I have been to (except for maybe New York City). On my latest visit, I stopped for lunch at the Plan B Burger Bar […]
One of the most elusive gluten-free items out there is real, authentic sourdough bread. Because it’s baking month, and national sourdough bread day occurred earlier this month, I finally broke down and ordered a sampler from Bread SRSLY, a San Fransisco-based company whose mission is bringing gluten-free vegan sourdough to the people. I have had my eye on this innovative company for awhile now, and was so excited about the prospect of sourdough […]
After breaking my trend of baking mix reviews with a bakery review, let’s continue the trend with a review of Elephant Bread, which is a truly incredible company I discovered on my recent swing through Cincinnati over spring break. Founded by a local baker who had a firm belief that gluten-free bread can and should be delicious, this bread is truly homemade and crafted with care. One of the few […]
As much as I love discovering new baking mixes out on the market, I really love when brands I already know and love expand their gluten-free offerings. Such is the case with Scratch and Grain Baking Company. I previously have reviewed their gluten-free cookie mixes (link here) and really loved their novel approach to baking. With all the convenience of a prepackaged mix but the step-by-step methodology of from-scratch baking, […]
I return back to Baltimore next week, so I am now focused on making the most of my limited time left in Orlando. For some inspiration, I decided to turn to my to-try list of restaurants I have always wanted to visit but for one reason or another had not done so until now. Topping that list was Hot Krust Panini Kitchen, a restaurant I have wanted to try for […]
As of Sept. 13, 2016 BB Junction has closed. While back in Orlando over the winter holidays, my family decided to check out an Orlando Magic home game while I was in town. We all used to follow the team closely back when they made a couple runs in the Playoffs, but my interest in them has died out as the team has floundered and I have lived out of state. Knowing that allergy-friendly options […]
My year-end round up comes down to one last top 10 list: my favorite products of the year. Although it was difficult to narrow down my favorite restaurants of the year, this list definitely ups the ante because I have tried so many fabulous and truly ground-breaking products this year. Some I found through gluten-free expos and trade shows and others by keeping my eyes peeled on every grocery run I […]
