Gluten Free RestaurantsAs a child, gluten free restaurants only existed in my imagination. Back in the 1960s and 70s hardly anyone had heard of celiac disease, let alone knew how to feed someone with it! The ingredients for gluten free cooking were almost impossible to get hold off, and certainly not something that a restaurant would keep in stock.Eating out with my family was a nightmare, with my parents trying to explain what I could and couldn't eat to chef's that had never heard of a gluten free diet, and probably thought they were neurotic.
Nowadays, it is much easier, thank goodness. Many chefs now have an understanding of the gluten free diet, and are happy to meet the challenge of producing an appetizing meal for us. It is now possible to go out for a meal and be treated without fuss and embarrassment when you explain you dietary needs. You may even be lucky enough to find certain items marked on the menu as gluten free. This certainly takes the guesswork out of deciding whether something is safe to eat or not. There are even restaurants with gluten free menus scattered around the world. My childhood dream come true! But the difficulty is in finding these wonderful places. There are a number of places on the net where you can search for gluten free restaurants in your area.
But of course we don't want to leave the gluten free restaurants themselves out of the picture. If you own or run one, there is room on the site for your own input. Contact us with details of your restaurant, pub or other eating place and we can talk about adding your details. Not just a name and address, but a whole page devoted to you, and what you can offer a celiac diner. The Nebo Restaurant in Boston, MA is the first to be featured on this site.
Where did you go? Tell us what you ate, and whether you enjoyed it. Were the staff friendly and knowledgeable? Were you treated well, or did you feel like a freak show? Would you go there to eat again? Share your story with other visitors to the site and maybe find out new venues that you could eat at yourself after reading other people's stories.

It was embarrassing and got even worse when the meal they did bring me, had to go back, because they had put a slice of bread on the plate or scattered croutons on my salad. I can remember everyone else tucking in while I sat waiting for something boring to be brought out for the picky kid on the table in the corner.
