Yummy & Guiltfree Review

In planning my holiday to London last month, I knew I wanted to plan a day trip out of the city to get a change of scenery and take advantage of the city’s many transport options that can easily connect you to points of interest throughout the UK and Europe. After considering my options, I decided on a day trip to Paris, which would be my first trip to continental Europe […]

Gluten-Free and Dairy-Free Afternoon Tea at Fortnum & Mason Review

As soon as I knew I was making a return trip to London, I was excited for another opportunity to enjoy a gluten-free afternoon tea. On my first visit back in February, I had a swoon-worthy experience at Claridge’s in Mayfair (see my review) that introduced me to the treasured tradition of afternoon tea and made for one of my most memorable experiences during the trip.  After researching several establishments […]

Posh Pop Bakeshop Review

This year has been a banner one for the gluten-free dining scene in New York City, with many new dedicated gluten-free establishments opening their doors in recent months. On a whim, and inspired by the rave reviews I’ve heard of late, I decided to plan a last-minute trip to the city over Memorial Day weekend to indulge in my two favorite things: gluten-free food and visiting museums!  As soon as […]

Hotel Chocolat Free From Chocolate Review

While on holiday in London back in February, I couldn’t help but notice Hotel Chocolat stores almost everywhere I went. This British chocolatier and cocoa grower is the only company in the UK that grows cocoa on its own plantation, and it’s stores are filled with a myriad of fun and tempting treats.  Unfortunately, most of the chocolate creations made by Hotel Chocolat have a warning that they may contain wheat so they […]

Gluten-Free Options at Grom (New York City)

In reading (and bookmarking!) my friend Alexis’s recap of her recent gluten-free odyssey through Rome (on her blog Alexis’s Gluten Free Adventures), one eatery she mentioned popped out to me: a gelateria called Grom. I knew that name rung a bell for me, and I quickly put two and two together that I had walked right by one of Grom’s New York City shops this past summer. I had no idea that the […]

Jeni's Splendid Ice Creams Review (Dairy-Free)

Just because summer is in the rear view mirror doesn’t mean that your ice cream consumption has to slow down! I am firmly in the frozen-desserts-all-year camp, especially when there’s an opportunity to try a new brand of dairy-free desserts. During my brief visit to Atlanta a couple weeks ago, I stopped by the fun and funky Westside Provisions development in Midtown for dinner with a friend. Because I arrived […]

By CHLOE Review

New York City is a magical wonderland for foodies- especially those with dietary restrictions. With a rich abundance of accommodating restaurants, bakeries, and cafes, I don’t think I will ever run out of new options to try whenever I visit.  On my visit to the city last weekend, I found myself wandering through the Greenwich Village neighborhood with a little time to spare before catching a performance at the Minetta Lane […]

Häagen-Dazs Non-Dairy Desserts Review

Summer is in full swing here in DC, and I am more than ready to trade in heavy coats and hot tea for sunglasses and dairy-free ice “cream” since winter weather lingered longer than usual this year. With the changing of the seasons, it’s always exciting to see new arrivals in the freezer aisle of my favorite stores.  When buying dairy-free ice “cream,” I tend to stick to companies who […]

Sweet Loren's Gluten-Free Chocolate Chunk Cookies Review

When it comes to gluten-free baking, I rely on boxed mixes to do the heavy lifting for me. Playing the game of having to mix seven different types of flours that many from-scratch recipes call for just isn’t my cup of tea. With box mixes all I have to worry about is milk, eggs, oil, and maybe one or two other mix-ins.  However there are times when even box mixes […]

Cooper's Hawk Winery & Restaurant Gluten-Free Menu

While visiting Cincinnati over the President’s Day weekend, my grandparents wanted to go out for dinner with my dad and me. After some searching, we decided that Cooper’s Hawk Winery and Restaurant in Kenwood would be a good place to go out because they had an expansive gluten-free menu and lots of choices for the gluten, and non-gluten eaters in our party.  When I arrived our waiter brought out the restaurant’s […]
