holiday meals. OR dining out while away from home.

November 17, 2010

You’re in good company here. We get you. We get how hard it is to leave your very own familiar kitchen – your mixing bowls, your pantry of gluten-free flours, your favorite recipe books & sunny countertops — and put your health and the whole experience of food in somebody else’s hands.

Going to visit family over the holidays can be stressful, especially if they don’t understand why you’re on a “low carb diet” (because dear Aunt Betty just can’t seem to wrap her brain around why you don’t enjoy a big, fat slice of french bread with your turkey, no gravy).

Here’s the good news: Triumph Dining’s The Essential Gluten-Free Restaurant Guide. Buy it. Dog-ear the pages of unfamiliar cities you’ll be cruising through over the holiday season, and for good measure, mark the pages of cities you want to visit next year. The book features over 6,500 restaurants nation-wide; 100 gluten-free lists from chains like P.F. Chang’s, Panera, and Subway; and a full print or online restaurant database that is verified & updated every year.

Already, the GFL headquarters (located in Healdsburg, California) are impressed with the thorough restaurant listing and the sample menus from chains, which allow you to, in effect, try before you buy.
