Look For Gluten Free dining In A Smartphone App

Have a smartphone? Try the Find Me Gluten Free app. It is useful for identifying user-contributed gluten-free options! Look for it in the app store.

One nice thing about this app is that it has both chain restaurants and local ones too. Restaurants are reviewed by how safe they are for people with celiac disease.

Think Ahead

It’s hard to be gluten-free and spontaneous about eating out.

Never get in situations where you are starving but are not sure where to go for food!

That almost always leads to bad decisions!

Included are a couple of tips:

  1. Keep a couple gluten-free health bars in your backpack just in case.
  2. Find time to do some research. Come up with a few Gluten Free dining options.
  3. If you’ve never been to a Gluten Free dining in DeKalb , stay with foods that are probably gluten-free – meats, salads, fruits and that kind of thing. It is not likely the best time to test gluten-free pasta or cake – if you’ve never been to this place before!
  4. Another thing, visit at less busy times. Eat dinner early or try for a late lunch. Arrive at a time you will have the undivided attention of the wait staff and the cooks aren’t overwhelmed.
