Your Home For Restaurant & Product Reviews Free From Gluten & Dairy
In what seems like a never-ending stretch of social distancing, I have diligent about sticking close to home over the past six months, venturing out only on rare occasions. While I have enjoyed trading in my evening commute to be more creative in the kitchen, I’ve missed the simple luxury of going out to eat and the only potential danger was potential gluten and/or dairy cross contact. Luckily, a recent visit from […]
In light of the ongoing devastation of the coronavirus epidemic, it’s more important than ever to support restaurants and companies that cater to gluten-free diners. Covid-19 considerations or not, being a gluten-free diner can be challenging, so any eatery or product that makes life more navigable to those of us with dietary restrictions are the MVPs of every community. One stalwart in my community of Washington, DC is Seoul Spice, the 100% gluten-free […]
At a national, regional, and local level, the last two weeks have unleashed a swirling storm of emotions: outrage, exhaustion, heartbreak, but also renewed hope the “more perfect union” generations of Americans have dreamed of can be realized. That can’t happen however, without the clear and unequivocal acknowledgement that Black Lives Matter. By typing, saying, or shouting those words in protest, millions across the country are uniting to reject the national paradigm that […]
Cementing January as a food-lover’s wonderland in this area, Metropolitan Washington Restaurant Week was conveniently timed right on the heels of the Bethesda’s iteration. With so many great restaurants and tempting menus to choose from, I look forward to a perfect excuse to try restaurants that have been on my radar awhile but I just haven’t stopped by yet. Karma Modern Indian certainly falls into this category. Located in the Chinatown area […]
At last year’s Washington DC Gluten-Free Expo, the most exciting piece of news to emerge from the event was that the DC area was getting its first dedicated gluten-free full service restaurant: Little Beet Table. A New York City export, Little Beet Table serves up seasonally inspired fare in the rare restaurant environment that is completely free from gluten. Not only can they cater to celiacs and other gluten-intolerant diners, they have […]
One of the best times of the year for DC-area foodies are local restaurant weeks, where DMV eateries roll out the red carpet and offer prix fixe menus that showcase seasonal flavors for a special price. I always keep a close eye to what’s on offer for restaurant weeks in Bethesda and DC, and when I spotted True Food Kitchen’s menus, I immediately made reservations. I’ve encountered True Food Kitchen once before, […]
As I mentioned in my last post, the dawning of a new year (and a new decade!) has prompted me to catch up with blog posts and reviews that have fallen to the wayside amidst the many December festivities I was juggling. As such, I’m happy to have finished this review so I can share one of the gluten-free gems I discovered in Philly last November. Though I’ve mentioned it in […]
I love the period of transition between one year to the next. There’s nothing more exciting than looking ahead to all the possibilities that await in the next 365 days and I relish the opportunity to reflect on the year that was and set goals for the coming year. As the new year has turned, I can’t quite begin with a clean slate yet because I have to wrap up a […]
Although I see an abundance of food trucks all over DC, very few are gluten-free friendly. Cooking in such close corners is certainly not conducive to avoiding cross-contact with wheat, barley, and rye, so the only food trucks I trust are ones that are 100% free from gluten. While attending the opening festival of the Kennedy Center’s new expansion, I was thrilled to discover a new-to-me food truck that fit the bill with […]
This summer, most of my blogging bandwidth has been taken up by playing catch up to recap all the wonderful eats I found in London and Paris this summer. With that adventure in the books and September already upon us (already?), I’m looking forward to getting back to my mission to find the best gluten-free eats in and around Washington, DC. Topping the list of places I wanted to check out […]
