Being spontaneous and gluten free is difficult!
Don’t let yourself get in scenarios where you are hungry but not clear where to go for food!
That almost always leads to bad decisions!
Included are a couple of recommendations:
- Keep a couple GF nutrition bars in your purse in case.
- Spend time to research the area. Come up with a few Gluten Free Restaurant options.
- If you’ve never been to a Gluten Free Restaurant in Altoona , stay with foods that are most likely GF – meats, salads, fruits and that kind of thing. This is probably not a good time to explore GF pasta or cake – if you’ve never been to the place before!
- Lastly, eat out at less busy times of day. Plan dinner early or have a late lunch. Show up at a time you will easily have the full attention of the wait person and the chefs aren’t overwhelmed.
