About Us
Dining away from home can be a challenge for those managing food allergies and intolerances or special dietary needs. As a registered dietitian, as well as a mother of children with food allergies, I am always on the lookout for a safe place to eat. This site came about due to the necessity of finding restaurants receptive to serving customers with food allergies and special dietary concerns. Our goal is to increase the awareness within the restaurant community so that we may once again experience the freedom to dine away from home.

Wow! Gluten free fried clams, chowder and more…

  Woodman’s of Essex  is a well loved  establishment that has been frying up clams since 1914  and most of their menu just happens to be gluten-free!  There are many choices and the portions are generous.  Fried clams, scallops, haddock, chicken fingers, clam chowder and fries are a few of the gluten-free menu choices available. Check out their gluten-free menu  www.woodmans.com/restaurant/menus.cfm  for a full listing.  All breaded items are  prepared with ground corn meal, no other flour is used. But note, the food is dipped in evaporated milk before being coated.  It is a casual  fun place to visit in any season.  

In warmer months diners can sit outside on picnic  benches over looking the Essex River.  For many, it just wouldn’t be summer without a trip to Woodman’s.

An allergen friendly restaurant with entertainment!

The Nimrod Restaurant & Jazz Lounge  is located in Falmouth, Massachusetts on beautiful Cape Cod.  Included on their dinner menu is a clearly marked gluten free section.  There are numerous choices for appetizers, entrees and desserts. They even offer gluten-free rolls!   There are some gluten-free choices for lunch as well.  After contacting Chef Jim Murry, I  was told that they can accomodate most food intolerances, especially if notified in advance. They never use trans fats or MSG and very rarely use corn oil.   Read the rest of this entry »

Happy Gluten Free St. Patrick’s Day!

     Where do  you celebrate St. Paddy’s day?  Are you forced to stay home and cook?  I’m willing to travel this year because I know I can have a safe and delicious meal at Rafferty’s Restaurant & Pub in North Conway, NH.  They are offering a traditional corned beef and cabbage dinner on the weekend and will be having a St. Paddy’s Day party with local radio personalities as well as prizes and giveaways.  The owners of this  restaurant have two children with celiac disease.
