Oh Miglet’s, we love you.  I don’t even have photos of the gluten-free cupcakes because we ate them right away!  (Like literally, before we even left the Bakery.
Shown here, decadent Gluten-Free Cinnamon rolls and a Fruit Tart.

Congratulations Katie Taylor and team on the Grand Opening of Miglet’s Gluten-Free Cupcake Shop!  We attended the Grand Opening festivities last weekend and enjoyed delicious gluten-free cupcakes, cookies, face painting, coloring and balloons!  A wonderful time was had by all and I am thrilled to have a dedicated gluten-free bakery in the Danville/Walnut Creek area!  [...]

Gluten-free goodies galore in the Bay Area!  I can’t wait to try out Zest in San Carlos, CA.  According to their twitter feed and website, this gluten free bakery will open a new home in San Carlos in July.  I think I may have to take a Gluten Free road trip around the Bay and [...]

What better way to celebrate the beginning of summer than with a delicious scoop (or three) of Ici Ice Cream.  This was our first trip to Ici after hearing raving reviews and boy,… we were not disappointed.
With unique flavors such as pluot-raspberry and rosemary-candied-bacon, the long line outside went fairly quickly while we tried to [...]

Pizza night just got a billion times better for us gluten-free folks, now that Extreme Pizza offers (and delivers!) gluten-free pizzas.  The crust is rice-based, made by stillridingpizza.  When the pizza is delivered piping hot, the crust is extremely crispy, much akin to an italian thin-crust pizza.
My favorite toppings are pineapple, green onion and bacon, [...]

Crispy on the outside, moist on the inside, Farmer’s Kitchen Cafe’s Gluten-Free French Baguette is such a treat.
I love spreading butter or margarine and toasting lightly in the oven or on the stovetop.

During a trip to my local Asian Market, 99 Ranch Market, I was thrilled to fine Safoco brand of  white-rice gluten-free pasta, at the astonishing price of $1.69!  Compare to similar white rice pasta brands at Whole Foods ($7.99 a box).
Pasta comes in both penne (shown to the left) as well as macaroni. Ingredients are [...]

Beretta has been one of my favorite San Francisco spots, even before I developed my food allergies.  Great location in the Mission, good food, unique drinks,  reasonable prices and a friendly staff.  Now that my restaurant dining options are a much more limited, Beretta has quickly gone to the top of my lists of best [...]
