Your Home For Restaurant & Product Reviews Free From Gluten & Dairy
Although my childhood was spent in the Midwest, I really grew up when my family moved to Florida late in my elementary school career. Despite moving to the part of the country where sweet tea is as readily available as water and it’s normal to pair fried chicken with waffles, I must admit I was never, and am still not really, a fan of Southern cuisine. Cornbread I am a-okay with […]
After passing through Charlotte, North Carolina several times in the past year (see reviews here), I have grown to love discovering new places to eat in this Southern city.

As a gluten-free blogger, I’ve learned to never miss the opportunity to taste food when it’s concentrated in one area.

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 […]
