gf.review of The Art of slow Food BAKERY Victoria BC Canada 🇨🇦 On a recent stop on a cruise through Victoria, we had the pleasure of visiting this gorgeous bakery in downtown Victoria. This family run business, has celiac and good baking as its mission statement. Dad is celiac, and his 2 daughters run the place. We had the pleasure of trying the warm cinnamon bun, pear scone, and olive sourdough and watched the delicious breakfast wrap being created. We absolutely loved everything. My favourite was the gluten free sourdough. It had that gorgeous tang and springy centre you crave in sourdough bread. To bake something gluten free that is that delicious is extremely difficult. High fives to what you are doing in Victoria for the celiac community guys! Add this to your list of places to check out. It’s worth it! Join me in getting the word out by sharing the post with your celiac community. ↗️

Princess CRUISES Review of Discovery Princess SHIP celiac safe food practices and food options. Los Angeles-Vancouver Discovery Princess has several options for dining, I will cover each one. I interviewed senior staff for current information onboard as of May 2024 on this ship. Formal Dining Rooms- there are 3 dining rooms each with the same menu. Celiacs- present yourself on the first day to senior staff in the dining room as celiac. The head chef will personally make your food in a separate kitchen space with dedicated fryer. At the end of each meal, you will be given the menu for the following day, you indicate what you’d like, sign it with your name and room number and the chef will custom make a celiac version of the dishes you choose. *bonus points for the most delicious and piping hot food at sea I’ve ever had. You can tell that their head chef is Michelin star and the staff are eager to help which is positive. Buffet- on deck 16 there is a huge buffet. After speaking with staff this is my opinion on the buffet, the only gluten free signs are in the bakery, that means you have to flag down a head chef with a white hat and ask about each and every dish and what you can have. This is not ideal. That is time consuming so they lose a point for that but gain 2 points for having a gf pancake station and a pastry chef making fresh gf desserts. They will pull fresh product of naturally gluten free buffet items like cheese or fruit etc.. from the back. the sheer selection of food is impressive The quality of the food on the buffet is extremely good and head chefs on the buffet are celiac trained. Room service-is very limited, but it is possible to have a light continental breakfast and coffee in your room Snacks and larger lunch items are limited Casual bites- there is a hot dog stand, pizza spot, and ice cream bar pool side. None are celiac safe. Overall I give this cruise ship a positive thumbs up. I wouldn’t hesitate to have our celiac son eat on this ship, which he would likely eat every meal in the dining room and stick to roasted meats, fresh fish, and salads in the buffet.

Ottis Redding wrote the famous song “sitting on the dock of the Bay” here on the pier in Sausalito California overlooking the beautiful bay of San Francisco. Across the street from the pier, There’s another treasure, the 100% gluten free Copita Restaurant with its historic building and amazing menu. @copitasausalito #california #sausalito #glutenfree

Don’t ditch your celiac family member to go eat gluten altogether with no plan for them. It’s incredibly isolating and frustrating to be medically gluten free in a gluten filled family and society Because the only treatment for celiac is life long adherence to gluten free is is critical that their family “gets it” Can you imagine how hard it is to be hungry, and not be able go eat a slice of your hot and delicious pizza? Or be at a party where the only thing served is lasagna and cake? You are a family, and family does not leave one person out. Have a plan. Have a plan. Have a plan. Photo- is an albino bluebell. She is different than all the bluebells around her, but just as beautiful

♥️❤️‍🩹♥️❤️‍🩹♥️❤️‍🩹 DATE NIGHT with your celiac in Vancouver? Looking for some last minute ideas for celiac safe restaurants for Valentines Day? Here’s some date night gems we’ve eaten at personally in and around Vancouver with a highly sensitive celiac with no reaction. As a policy I only recommend restaurants that I’ve vetted myself personally and our celiac has eaten at multiple times safely. To make this list they must have a dedicated fryer, and celiac protocols for cross contact. Celiac Safe Gluten free ✅ @thepokeguyyvr - Poke Bowls Vancouver @jansonthebeach - Fish and Chips WhiteRock @graciesnextdoor - Mexican Tswassen @redrobinburgers - Burgers All locations @whitespot_restaurants - Family Dining - All loc @iki_japanese_gluten_free - 100% gf Sushi @meetonmain - Casual Dining - Downtown Not pictured- @thekegsteakhouse - Steak Fine Dining - All loc @jukefriedchicken - Fried Chicken - Chinatown @delishglutenfree - cakes & pastries- PoCo @pannerizo - Fresh Donuts - Vancouver @earthlingglutenfree - Afternoon High Tea - PoCo @heirspears - Full GF Restaurant- Vancouver *note- White Spot Restaurant locations have the 2nd dedicated fryer for fries, the smaller take out Triple O’s do NOT. Meaning you can have the fries at Whitespot but NOT Triple O’s. This is because there is not space for a 2nd fryer in the smaller locations.

Gluten free Dinner tonight is chili, potatoes, and an Asian slaw made with aged maple balsamic vinegar & serene oil dressing. What are you fixin for your gluten free supper? #glutenfree
