THE GLUTEN-FREE DINING GUIDE

Everything you need to eat out with confidence

It’s time to live a life without the restrictions, fear, or limits you put on yourself that stop you from eating out.

Since going gluten-free have you become anxious when going out to eat? Do you choose to skip events with friends and family because you are worried about gluten-exposure? If so this guide is for you.

​

Picture this. It’s Saturday evening and your plan is to stay in and watch a movie with your cat. Then you get a call from your friend asking if you want to hang out and check out the new restaurant that opened just down the street. All your friends are going and they can pick you up in 15 minutes. What do you do? 

​

Do you automatically say no because you do not have time to call the restaurant and ask about gluten-free options? Or, do you say no because you do not feel safe with the type of cuisine they serve?

​

Maybe you do get the courage to go. But, do you then make yourself sick worrying about cross-contact while waiting for your food?

WHAT PEOPLE SAY

"I really liked it. It gave lots of helpful hints."

I liked that specific types of foods especially cultural foods were listed so when going to a place someone with celiac can see were there may be hidden gluten. I was glad to see that there was an alcoholic section. I’m not a big drinker yet having a drink now and again is nice!

 

- Charlotte

"it seriously felt like a weight off my shoulders."

Eating out is the biggest thing I miss with this new lifestyle so learning the right ways to order and to ask questions I think will be extremely helpful for myself.
