Olive Garden!

Ok, this may not be really "new" news in the Gluten Free world...but it is news to me! My friend Jillian just let me know that Olive Garden has a gluten free menu! I knew they had a gluten free menu already...and I thanked her for the knowledge but said I already knew that. She went on to say, however, that they now have a gluten free pasta! Previously when I had checked their website, I think they only had steak/chicken/salmon options! (But, again, I hadn't checked their website in a while)
Now, indeed, they do have a gluten free penne pasta with marinara option. Also, I noted that their yummy salad (without crutons, of course ;) ) is gluten free! I do love their house Italian dressing, so that was awesome to see :).
So, all of you GF lovers, go check out your local Olive Garden for some yummy GF eats! It's always fantastic to have another GF restaurant option :).

THANKS JILLIAN

(as with any Gluten Free-claiming-menu....be responsible and check with your server/a manager to ensure that measures have been taken to prevent cross-contamination.)

Destihl

FYI if you're in the Bloomington-Normal area and want an awesome gluten free meal.....second to Biaggi's (the best, in my opinion, for eating out gluten free in this town...they have an amazingly huge GF menu and are very knowledgeable about the GF diet in general) is Destihl. They don't have a specific gluten-free menu, but many of their items are gluten free or can be made gluten free...and they are delicious!!! We went there tonight to celebrate Father's Day with Jeremy's family.

We had an AWESOME waiter tonight, too, which is always a plus :)

I had...a spinach/orange/strawberry/goat cheese salad with orange balsamic vinaigrette...a bison burger (no bun)...and some yummy orange-ginger iced tea.

YUM!

So, if you are GF and in Blo/No, check out Destihl!! :)

AND, check them out if you aren't, too! ;) Jeremy LOVES the pizza and beer :) :)
