Modern Bread & Bagel Review

The cruel thing about being gluten-free is not only that forever alters your sense of “normal” for baked goods and other wheat-based products, but it turns every dining experience into a research project, with serious sleuthing skills required before crossing a restaurant or cafe’s threshold. Gone are the days where stopping by for a sandwich or sitting down for a dinner can be done on a whim.  However at one […]

Arba Review

As a gluten-free food blogger, this year has proven to be especially fruitful when it comes to extraordinary gluten-free dining experiences. From a week’s worth of swoon-worthy eats in the UK, to a DC restaurant debuts that have really impressed me (I’m looking at you Momo Yakitori and Flower Child), I am extraordinary thankful to the chefs and restaurant teams that continue to raise the bar when it comes to gluten-free […]

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 […]

ROLLN Review

After all these years of being gluten-free, it still amazes me when I discover new restaurants where I can (safely) experience a cuisine for the first. Such is the case with ROLLN, a New York City sushi restaurant that recently made the bold and brave decision to go completely gluten-free.   Other than a few one-off occasions of trying sushi (I’m looking at you Wegmans), I have largely avoided seeking […]

Krumville Bake Shop Review

If there’s one thing I know for sure, its that the real MVP of the gluten-free world are gluten-free bakeries. These dedicated bake shops not only serve up sweet and savory baked goods, but provide an all-too-rare experience of normalcy for those who have to live free from the number one ingredient in cakes, breads, and so many other sweets.  When Antonella from the Brooklyn-based Krumville Bake Shop recently reached […]

La Esquina Taqueria Review

If there’s one genre of food that I simply don’t get enough of here in DC it’s tacos.  When I lived in Baltimore, I was spoiled by having two 100% gluten-free taquerias in the city to satisfy my cravings. Since leaving Charm City, my taco consumption has dramatically decreased, so when 100% gluten-free La Esquina’s midtown taqueria popped up as nearby restaurant when I was looking for a lunch spot […]

Dig Inn Review

Over the past few months, I’ve been lucky enough to find myself in NYC for both work and for fun. On one such trip, I received a tip from an Instagram follower (thank you @shrinkmuch!) to check out Dig Inn, which serves up seasonally-inspired bowls that are made with farm-fresh ingredients that are naturally gluten-free. With this description I’m sure Dig Inn sounds like every other fast-casual, healthy fare, build-a-bowl concept that is popping up […]

Mänchi Review

If there’s one edge New York City’s culinary scene has over Washington DC’s, it’s the abundance of 100% dedicated gluten-free restaurants. While I greatly appreciate non-dedicated restaurants that go over and above to accommodate gluten-free guests, there’s just nothing like the peace of mind that comes from walking into an eatery and being to eat anything on the menu (or almost anything, as I am also dairy-free). On my latest weekend jaunt up to city, I wanted […]

Indikitch Review

During my visit to New York City last month, I was excited that I had a several evenings to search for new food options after the workday was over.  One such discovery was Indikitch, a New York City-based chain that spices up the fast casual assembly line model with Indian flavors and flair.  I am a huge fan of Indian food and have been adding more and more Indian flavors […]

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 […]
