The gluten-free restaurants and grocery stores I personally go to and trust. The restaurants I feel comfortable with as a Celiac. The safe ones. There are a few trendy ones here, but overall this is the list you can feel safe as a Celiac with. Not fad safe, disease safe. xx

The Best Smoothie & Juice Bars
**Be careful about juice bars, hidden gluten can lurk because they don't always clean the blenders or juicers after each round. Those juicers often use grasses and powders that are not gluten-free and protein powders and that contamination can get your body into trouble. For those who have food allergies or sensitivities, be careful as well).
