Your Home For Restaurant & Product Reviews Free From Gluten & Dairy
As a gluten-free eater, tacos are one of my favorite genres of food because they are so easily adapted to be gluten and dairy-free. When I heard a new all-veggie-centric taco joint was coming to Washington DC’s Brookland neighborhood, I immediately bumped it to the top of my never-ending list new restaurants to try. Fox Loves Taco is this decidedly hip taqueria. Open from the early hours of the morning […]
I don’t eat as much pizza as I used to when I first started this blog. I blame some stellar gluten-free pizza experiences for this because once you’ve had a good gluten-free pizza, it’s hard to settle for an often overpriced, cardboard-tasting pathetic pizza. After hearing positive reviews about Washington D.C.’s Pi Pizzeria, I decided to pay them a visit, lured by the promise of delicious pizza prepared safely. Even […]
As a busy (and always hungry) college student, I am always looking for portable snacks that satisfy in the moment but also have good-for-you ingredients. On a recent pass through the gluten-free product aisle at my local Safeway, I spotted a new-to-me product: The Good Bean’s Favas and Peas. Always game to try plant-based foods that sneak protein into my diet, I bought one each of their sea salt and […]
One of my favorite things about living in Orlando a few years ago was enjoying the thriving food truck culture. It was fun to follow my favorite trucks to neighborhoods all around the city and I managed to find a handful of trucks that served up reliably gluten-free fare. Now that I live in Baltimore, my food truck wanderings are more limited, as I have struggled to find gluten-free safe […]
When it comes to “fast food” Mexican restaurants, I have always held the less-than-popular opinion that Qdoba is the best of the chain restaurants out there. With flavorful food and lots of gluten-free and dairy-free options to choose from, I’ve never had a bad meal from Qdoba… plus their guacamole never incurs an extra charge! Since Qdoba is not 100% gluten-free, knowing how to navigate the menu is important, as […]
For gluten-free foodies, The Little Beet is a gluten-free haven in Washington DC. This New York City export is 100% gluten-free, and promises seasonal fare, farm-to-table ingredients, and peace of mind when dining out. Since my first review of The Little Beet, their menu and options have changed enough to warrant an updated blog post. The menu has been reorientated around design-your-own bowls, with a rice, grains, or salad as […]
I love bread. I always have, and always will. As a gluten-free blogger (and bread lover), I am always in search of the latest and greatest gluten-free bread options. From breads found at my local grocery stores to ordering from bakeries across the country, I never pass up an opportunity to try a new-to-me brand. When visiting North Carolina, a Publix trip introduced me to BFree, a wheat and gluten-free bakery […]
I ordered the daily special, Primal’s chicken salad. This is not so much your deli counter variety, but a lovely reimagining, which serves the salad in a deconstructed way. The chicken has a lovely grilled flavor, and is tender and cut into manageable slices. Grapes and Granny Smith apples provide sweetness, with the latter adding a delightful tartness. The almonds added a nuttiness and nice texture to every forkful and […]
Since I have family in Western North Carolina, I like to make plans to visit multiple times a year. As a city dweller, I enjoy the abundance of beautiful scenery to be had in the mountains and foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains, and eating southern food that is hard to find in the mid-Atlantic. When planning a day trip to Grandfather Mountain with my aunt and uncle, a quick Find […]
From one location in Dartmouth, Massachusetts to over 20 locations today, Not Your Average Joe’s has made a name for itself by focusing on from-scratch cooking and unparalleled service. I’ve heard for awhile that Not Your Average Joe’s had a great gluten-free menu- and even better- a can-do attitude when it comes to dietary restrictions. The restaurant has been on my to-try list for awhile, but their Virginia and Maryland […]
