One of the only good things about coming back from vacation is enjoying the souvenirs (and photos) that you acquired along the way. In our case, there were bags upon bags of coffee, some chocolate bars, and our favorite beans.
The Ferry Terminal farmers market holds some of our favorite food destinations. Gluteneer heads straight to [...]

Back from the West (and mighty full)
October 26th, 2008 · 1 Comment · Elsewhere, Farmers Market, Restaurants, Travel, Uncategorized
I am back and just starting to process our amazing West Coast vacation. The trip wound through Sonoma and Napa, Palo Alto, and San Francisco before leaping up to Portland and Seattle.
It was a food-filled romp from the start - our first dinner was at the epic Cyrus (I wish I had pictures) - that [...]

Cool Chix
October 3rd, 2008 · No Comments · Restaurants, Washington, D.C.
Sorry I’ve been out of touch. I’ve been in debate camp.
How fun does that sound? You can send me to a podium by the river any day.
But if I’m going somewhere, I’d best have a lunch at the ready.
Finding on-the-go options has been really tricky since I started my gluten-free diet. Sandwiches and falafels and [...]

Dosa With the Most-a

I’m currently in New York, so I’ve been enjoying gluten-free bites from a bevy of cuisines. First up: [...]

Ooey Gooey Pie: Pizza from Lilit Cafe
August 18th, 2008 · No Comments · Pizza, Restaurants, Smackdowns, Uncategorized, Washington, D.C.
I’ve been curious about Lilit Café for quite a while. The Bethesda restaurant functions as a deli, pizzeria, gelateria and beer/wine store. They also very prominently feature a gluten-free menu.
The menu isn’t anything extremely complex, but that’s what I was hoping for. They serve gluten-free crab cakes, grilled cheese, deli sandwiches, and pizza.
The gluten awareness [...]

Stay or Go: D.C. Restaurant Week 2008
August 10th, 2008 · 4 Comments · Restaurants, Uncategorized, Washington, D.C.
Restaurant Week is back. In years past, it was a week of $20-something lunches with $30-something dinners. Nowadays, the week is often 2 weeks or even a month and that dinner has become $35.08 rather than the expected $30.08. I’ve gone to more than my fair share of restaurant week meals (it was a part [...]

You Complete Me: A Service Epiphany at Al Crostino
August 6th, 2008 · No Comments · Restaurants, Washington, D.C.
When our farmers market okra died a bit sooner than anticipated (RIP, little green friends), we made an impromptu visit to Al Crostino for dinner last night.
Gluteneer and I loved that place when it first opened. We could order a few apps and split the arugula-topped ribeye. So, we decided to hit it up [...]
