Your Home For Restaurant & Product Reviews Free From Gluten & Dairy
If you have spent any time following this blog, you might have caught on to the fact that I am a huge fan of the humble taco. It’s simple, unassuming, and is naturally gluten-free, if made with corn tortillas. In my travels, I have reviewed quite a few gluten-free friendly taco places that have impressed me. In discovering Chaia online, I was impressed by their farm-to-table focus and commitment to creating […]
This review has been updated (click here), since this post was published the menu has changed and The Little Beet no longer serves breakfast. When it came to planning a weekend excursion into DC, topping the list of places to visit was The Little Beet, a 100% gluten-free export from New York City. With locally-sourced menu items, a full menu of possibilities, and philosophy that aspires for food that is […]
Every month I love making little discoveries of new-to-me products from brands both familiar and new. This month’s batch of favorite finds includes four products I am really excited about, and while definitely purchase again and again. From simple snacks such as pretzels to innovative products such as single serve guac, definitely don’t miss these three products.
After taking in a show at the Kennedy Center the night before, I debated whether or not to play tourist around the National Mall or go off the beaten track a little to find gluten-free eats with the few hours I had before catching the midday train back to Baltimore. Naturally, playing foodie tourist won out. With so many neighborhoods in DC, there is definitely no shortage of places to […]
This is a review of Ben & Jerry’s new non-dairy ice cream. To see a review of sorbets which are also gluten and dairy-free, click here. Well, the wait is over my dairy-free friends. After years of not being able to partake in Vermont’s favorite ice cream, Ben & Jerry’s has bravely ventured in to the non-dairy ice cream world. Launching this new line with four flavors, vegans and those who cannot […]
Beginning earlier this month, I have begun preparing for April, in which I will devote the whole month to all things gluten and dairy-free baking. Part of the process is seeking out awesome brands to showcase, and topping that list of brands I wanted to partner with was EatPastry. This vegan company produces downright amazing gluten-free cookie dough (see my review here) that’s edible pre-baking. Unfortunately, EatPastry’s baking mixes are […]
Wholesome Nibbles Offering gluten, dairy, and soy-free raw treats, Wholesome Nibbles is a newer company, having only set up shop earlier this year. Their treats are made using real, whole ingredients that are processed down and scooped into bite-sized balls. For the most part, they are vegan, but honey is an ingredient in some varieties. The day I went, the flavors were chocolate almond, cranberry coconut, apricot walnut, and coffee […]
When it comes to gluten-free pizza, Baltimore has some serious contenders for my heart (and wallet). The only problem is that my favorite pizzerias are located in Baltimore city, which is pretty inconvenient for me to frequently patron because I live north of the city in Towson. Luckily, Towson has a newcomer on the block who is bringing gluten-free pizza to the area which has sorely lacked good GF options. […]
When it comes to beverages, my preferred drink of choice is water. Soda just does not appeal to me, especially since most brands pump their soft drinks up with caffeine, fake sugars, and other ingredients that spell disaster for your metabolic system. However, during the “Baltimore Blizzard” at the end of January, I was snowed in for 72 hours to an off-campus hotel, where curiosity compelled me to seek out what gluten-free and […]
When it comes to getting your bang for your buck with food, it’s really hard to beat beans. They’re heart-healthy, low in fat, protein-packed, and help regulate blood sugar, all while being budget friendly and endlessly versatile in a variety of cuisines. I am already a big bean proponent, but often do not have time to prepare dried beans at school and want to avoid BPA exposure through canned foods. […]
