Maggiano’s at Beachwood Place has been a favorite of mine for years. They do not have a gluten free menu, but the chef visits the table and is happy to modify menu items. Their GF pasta is tasty. I was saddened to find that they introduced a new menu and now charge an additional $2 for GF pasta. And, if you choose one of their “Classic Pastas” which include a portion to eat at the restaurant and another boxed to take home, you will be charged the $2 twice. So the GF option is $4 more than the gluten containing pasta.

Fahrenheit

Tremont

GF Menu?: No

What did you order?: Pork

Was the server knowledgeable?: Marginally

Comments: I was very disappointed in Fahrenheit. There was no gluten-free menu, and only three options on the entire menu (no desserts) were gluten free. If you go, you’d better like pork, because two of the three were pork. The server seemed uncertain about my needs–recommending a gluten-filled dessert in spite of my careful explanation of what I needed.

I had lunch this week at the B Spot on Chagrin at Eton. A manager came to the table to explain my options – bunless burger or chicken. All toppings were ok, except grilled onions. No fries, as onion rings are made in the same oil. Condiments and sauces are on the table and a pickle bar, with pickled tomatoes and onions, in addition to 2 kinds of cucumbers, is located in the center of the restaurant. The manager brought out a dish of the very delicious Coffee BBQ sauce and an assortment of fantastic pickled veggies at my request. One note: In the service of our large table of mostly gluten eaters, my chicken arrived with a fry on the plate. The server immediately returned the dish to the kitchen and the manager hand carried a newly made serving to me.

Well, I will not be blogging happy comments about this place. Despite the “it’s no problem to do GF” that I was told yesterday, it was a problem. I had a lentil soup and fresh salad but everyone else had wonderful hors d’oeuvres and entrées and desserts. Part of the problem was our waitress and part was the restaurant was packed and very noisy. (And to add insult, the waitress divided the others’ hors d’oeuvres among all 5 of us and then charged me double. So not only did I not get to eat it, I was charged twice the amount!) I will not be returning to give them a second chance – there are so many places I really enjoy with excellent service and menus.

So, I do not suggest going to Spice if you are in the Gordon Square/Detroit Shoreway neighborhood. I recommend Luxe down the street.

GF Chicken Nuggets

From Tim:

Giant Eagle in Beachwood is carrying Gluten Free Tyson chicken bags. They
were the same price ($6.99) as the regular with almost the same quantity.

Thanks, Tim, for sharing.

I saw both Tyson and Purdue GF chicken nuggets at the Giant Eagle in Willoughby.

I haven’t tried these products. But I am a big fan of the Bell and Evans

GF chicken tenders.

Have you tried them? Do you have a favorite GF chicken nugget or tender? Do you make your own? Please share your comments.
